Homework
- Homework is due at the beginning of class.
We do not accept electronic HW submission. If you do the homework
with a word processor like LateX, print it out and submit the paper.
- Please staple your homework.
- No late homework accepted but will delete the least 3 scores
for MWF sections and 2 for TTh sections.
Reserve these 3 "Joker" cards for emergencies.
- Collaborations are welcome however you must turn in your
own copy and list on it the names of your collaborators.
- Similarly, acknowledge the use of Mathematica. If you use Mathematica,
nevertheless, write down all steps of your computation.
- If you can not turn in your homework because of a religious holiday
like Yom Kipur, turn it in earlier or give it to a friend
to turn it in.
- Homework scores from individual sections will be adjusted in the end
because different graders grade each section.

- Please write legibly and indicate clearly, where a new problem starts.
- Try to keep the problems in order.
- Use words to explain your work, if necessary. Show your work.
- If unable to finish a problem, indicate where you are
stuck. This will help us to give partial credit.
- Please infom about typos, misprints. We state here corrections
to the in class distributed texts as well as to the posted solutions.
Each hint gives you a bonus point. The texts posted here are corrected.
- (+Sol) means solutions have been posted.

Week 4:
1. Class: No Homework from Monday to Wednesday or Tuesday to Thursday
2. Class: 14.8: 4,10,19. There are additional custom problems:
Problem A) invent a surface rho = f(phi,theta), simple enough
to draw, but not in the book.
Problem B) invent a surface r = g(theta,z), simple enough
to draw but not appear in the book. You can use technology to
play with but it is fine (probably even better), if you tackle
the problem eventually without it. See FAQ.
3. Class: This problem is a custom problem set due Monday or Tuesday in the 5th week:
A) Parametrize the upper half of the
ellipsoid x2+y2+z2/4=1 in three different
ways: as a graph r(u,v) = (u,v,f(u,v)) (Euclidean coordinates), as a surface of revolution
r(theta,z) = (g(z) cos(theta),g(z) sin(theta),z) (cylindrical coordinates) and as a
deformed sphere r(phi,theta) = (x(phi,theta), y(phi,theta), z(phi,theta) ) (spherical coordinates).
B) The curve r(t) = (t1/2 cos(t), t1/2 sin(t), t)
can be placed on a surface. Find a parametrization r(t,s) of this surface.
C) Parametrize the surface which has distance 1 from the unit circle in the xy plane.
This is a doughnut. Use two angles.
D) Parametrize the paraboloid x2 + y2 = z in two different ways:
as a graph or as a surface of revolution.
E) Upload a picture for a gallery of marbles

Week 5:
(We use frequently the notation fx(x,y) for the partial
derivative of f(x,y) with respect to x).
1. Class 13.3: 10, 14. 13.4: 20, 32, 50
2. Class 13.4: 14, 52, 60,
Problem A: verify that for any function g(x) of one variable,
the function f(x,y) = g(x-y) + g(x+y) is a solution to the
wave equation fxx(x,y) = fyy(x,y).
Problem B:
Cobb and Douglas found in 1928 empirically a formula
P(L,K)= r La Kb for the total production P
of an economic system as a function of the amount of labour L
and the capital investment K. By fitting data, they got
r=1.01, a=0.75, b=0.25. Verify that the function P(L,K) satisfies the
partial differential equation L PL + K PK = P.

Week 6:
1. Class 13.6: 2,8 13.7: 40, 42, Problem A: given g(x,y,z) = z-f(x,y). What is the relation
between the gradient of g, a vector in space and the gradient of f, a vector in the plane?
Describe it in general and explain it also with a simple example, where you can draw the level
curves of f and the level surfaces of g.

surface r(u,v) = < v cos(u), v sin(u), v2 >, with u from 0 to Pi/2
and v from 0 to 1. 15.7: 28, 30 (compute only the flux integral),
