1. The MOD are proposing to house a radar system inside a geodesic dome. The dome is in the form of a sphere of diameter 42m, part of which will be below ground. One option being considered is that the radar system will be housed inside a right circular cone inside the sphere as shown in the diagram below: Before making a decision, it is necessary to determine the dimensions of the cone that maximises the available volume. (i) If h is the height of the cone, show that the volume of the cone in terms of h is given by `

 

(ii) Using calculus determine the value of h that maximises the volume of the cone [3 marks] (iii) Using calculus methods show that the value you have obtained in (ii) is a maximum [2 marks] (iv) Determine the radius of the base and the volume of the cone

 

2. The formula for the period, T, of a pendulum of length depends on its length L. For small oscillation the formula is 𝑇𝑇 = 2 𝜋𝜋 �𝐿𝐿 𝑔𝑔 . For larger oscillations the formula for the period T is given by the following integral: 𝑇𝑇 = 4 �𝐿𝐿 𝑔𝑔 ∫ 𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑 �1−𝑘𝑘2 sin2(𝑥𝑥) 𝜋𝜋/2 0 where 𝑘𝑘 depends on the angle from which the pendulum is released. Complete the following table using k = 0.8: x 0.0 𝜋𝜋 12 𝜋𝜋 6 𝜋𝜋 4 𝜋𝜋 3 5 𝜋𝜋 12 𝜋𝜋 2 1 �1 − 𝑘𝑘2sin2(𝑥𝑥) For a pendulum, of length 1.5m, estimate the period of the pendulum (to 6dp) using (i) Trapezium rule and (ii) Simpson’s rule [10 marks]

 

3. The surface of an air intake is machined according to the function 𝑓𝑓(𝑥𝑥, 𝑦𝑦) = 6 𝑥𝑥3 + 3 𝑦𝑦2 − 8 𝑥𝑥 + 2 𝑦𝑦 + 1 part of which is shown below. Find and classify the locations of the stationary points of this functio
