Here are several equations from real life. Can you work out
which measurements are possible from each equation? Which line
graph, equations and physical processes go together? This is our
collection of tasks on the mathematical theme of 'Population
Dynamics' for advanced students and those interested in
mathematical modelling. Are these statistical statements
sometimes, always or never true? Or it is impossible to say? Can
you suggest a curve to fit some experimental data? Can you work
out where the data might have come from? Why MUST these
statistical statements probably be at least a little Get further
into power series using the fascinating Bessel's equation. Use
your skill and knowledge to place various scientific lengths in
order of size. Can you judge the length of objects with sizes
ranging from 1 Angstrom to 1 million km with no wrong attempts?
How efficiently can you pack together disks? Which units would
you choose best to fit these situations? Work with numbers big
and small to estimate and calcula
