1.
a. Find an equation of the sphere that passes through the point and has center .
b. Find the curve in which this sphere intersects the xy-plane.
2. Write an inequality to describe the half-space consisting of all points to the left of a plane parallel to
the xz-plane and units to the right of it.
3. Write inequalities to describe the solid rectangular box in the first octant bounded by the
planes , , and .
4. Find an equation of the sphere that passes through the point and has center .
5. Draw a rectangular box with the origin and as opposite vertices and with its faces parallel to
the coordinate planes. Find the length of the diagonal of the box.
6. Write inequalities to describe the solid upper hemisphere of the sphere of radius centered at the origin.
7. Find the length of the median of side AB of the triangle with vertices
8. A woman walks due west on the deck of a ship at mi/h. The ship is moving north at a speed of
mi/h. Find the speed of the woman relative to the surface of the water. Round the result to the
nearest tenth.
9. The tension T at each end of the chain has magnitude N and makes an angle with the
horizontal. What is the weight of the chain? Round the result to the nearest hundredth.
10. Velocities have both direction and magnitude and thus are vectors. The magnitude of a velocity
vector is called speed. Suppose that a wind is blowing from the direction N W at a speed of
km/h. (This means that the direction from which the wind blows is west of the northerly
direction.) A pilot is steering a plane in the direction N E at an airspeed (speed in still air) of
km/h. The true course, or track, of the plane is the direction of the resultant of the velocity
vectors of the plane and the wind. The ground speed of the plane is the magnitude of the resultant.
Find the ground speed of the plane. Round the result to the nearest hundredth.
