Blog Post #12 for 10/15

EXERCISE #1

Exercises 1-3 are simple graphing exercises giving us practice on graphing general functions using symbolic strings.




EXERCISE #2




EXERCISE #3




EXERCISE #4


               



EXERCISE #5

In this exercise, we learned how to use the ezmesh and ezsurf plot functions, which create a mesh grid of a three-dimensional function. ezmeshc and ezsurfc add contour plots beneath the three dimensional surface.




EXERCISE #6

In this exercise, we modeled distance of projectile motion as a function of the angle theta. The graph below shows that launching a projectile at 45° (pi/2) results in the maximum distance.




EXERCISE #7

This exercise models the position, velocity and acceleration over time of a car that follows a given function for the distance. The diff function was used to take the derivative of distance to obtain velocity, and the derivative of velocity was used to obtain the equation for acceleration. 



EXERCISE #8

This was an exercise teaching us how to solve symbolic equations and convert the solutions back to double data types to be used for other equations.



EXERCISE #9

In this exercise, we leaned how to use the int function to take the integral of symbolic data strings.
