  • Question in Algebra by Picture of Ben Brawn Ben Brawn

    No description given

  • A quick knowledge and understanding check of:

    1) Work done concept.

    2) Work done formulae: W = Fx and W = Fxcos(y).

    3) Equivalent units of work.

  • Here you need to choose which formula you would use to find the red dashed value from the solid green values.  The view is three-dimensional and you can rotate it to get a better view.

    Variable defintions in the formulas:
    $\theta$ is an angle
    Adj. is the length of the side adjacent to the known angle
    Opp. is the length of the side opposite the known angle
    Hyp. is the length of the hypotenuse


    Your goal is to get twenty correct answers quickly. Incorrect answers show a highlight of the correct answer to select to continue.  The timer starts as soon as you choose your first answer and continues until you get 20 correct.  Select save answer after your results show in the applet.

  • Is this a function?
    Ready to use
    Question in Functions by Picture of Ben Brawn Ben Brawn

    Given an equation or a worded formula determine if it is a function or not

  • Exam (6 questions) in LANTITE (Numeracy) by Picture of Ben Brawn Ben Brawn

    A quick practice set of problems for education students to take in preparation for their numeracy test.

  • Golden Gate Bridge
    Ready to use

    An application of quadratic functions based on the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, USA. Student is given an equation representing the suspension cable of the bridge and asked to find the width between the towers and the minimum height of the cable above the roadway. Requires and understanding of the quadratic function and where and how to apply correct formulae.

  • This is a copy of a question from the Numbas demos project, with references to the editor removed.

    The student is shown a plot of a mystery function. They can enter values of $x$ check, within the bounds of the plot.

    They're asked to give the formula for the function, and then asked for its value at a very large value of $x$.

    A plot of the student's function updates automatically as they type. Adaptive marking is used for the final part to award credit if the student gives the right value for their incorrect function.

  • Question in Blathnaid's workspace by Blathnaid Sheridan and 1 other

    This question tests the students ability to factorise simple quadratic equations (where the coefficient of the x^2 term is 1) and use the factorised equation to solve the equation when it is equal to 0.

  • This question is a variation on another version which asks the student to find the height of a bridge arch and width of the river given a formula for the arch of the bridge (also available in the Numbas database)

  • An application of quadratic functions based on the Gladesville Bridge in Sydney, Australia. Student is given an equation representing the arch of the bridge and asked to find the height of the arch and the width of the river. Requires and understanding of the quadratic function and where and how to apply correct formulae.

  • An application of quadratic functions based on the Gateshead Bridge in the UK city of Newcastle. Student is given an equation representing the arch of the bridge and asked to find the height of the arch and the width of the river. Requires and understanding of the quadratic function and where and how to apply correct formulae.

  • Question in MfEP Progress Quizzes by Don Shearman and 1 other

    This question gives the student the formula for the charge on a capacitor as a function of time then asks them to find the value of k, the exponential constant given other values and hence write out the formula for the given case. A custom function (in Extensions & scripts) extracts the student's formula and plots it on a JSXGraph object in the question. The student is then asked to evaluate the function at a given point using the plot or other methods. The value of the capacitor (Q_0), time (t) and charge at time t are randomised as is the value at which the formula is to be evaluated.

  • Voltage drop formula
    Ready to use
    Question in MfEP Progress Quizzes by Don Shearman and 2 others

    Students are asked to rearrane the formula giving the voltage drop across a resistor in terms of emf of battery, resistance of resistor and internal resistance of battery to make the internal resistance the subject. They are then asked to calculate the internal resistance given values for the other variables (randomised).

  • Question in MfEP Progress Quizzes by Don Shearman and 2 others

    Students are presented with an AI generated solution to rerrange the quadratic equation where the AI has made errors, they are asked to rewrite the solution correctly. No variables but this is version 5 of 5 versions of the question. This version uses a much more mangled AI generated solution that the other 4 versions and does not ask for the line with the first error, just for the student to rewrite the solution correctly.

  • Students are presented with an AI generated solution to rerrange the quadratic equation where the AI has made errors, they are asked to identify on which line the first error occurs, then rewrite the solution correctly. No variables but this is version 4 of 5 versions of the question.

  • Two part question, student has to rearrange the parallel resistors formula (stated in the question) to make L_1 or L_2 the subject (variable is chosen randomly), then find the value of this variable when values of the other variables in the formula are given. These values are randomly chosen.

    Note that the advice for this question has two versions, the one displayed to the student depends on which variable is selected by the question.

  • Energy use
    Draft
    Question in MfEP Progress Quizzes by Don Shearman and 1 other

    Students need to solve a quadratic equation and recognise that only the positive root has physical significance. Roots are randomised with one always negative and one positive. Equation can be factorised fairly easily or the quadratic formula can be used to find the solution. Advice gives solution by factorisation.
