Volume in the second quadrant
We already defined points
a
,
b
, and
c
as
(
0, 0,
ha
)
,
(
10, 0,
hb
)
, and
(
0, 10,
hc
)
, respectively in the introduc-
tion notebook. We now define points
d
and
e
similarly below (go ahead and evaluate this cell):
In[1]:=
a
= {
0, 0, ha
}
;
b
= {
10, 0, hb
}
;
c
= {
0, 10, hc
}
;
d
= {-
10, 0, hd
}
;
e
= {
0,
-
10, he
}
;
Question 1
: Follow the procedure outlined in the Soybean Volume Lab notebook to find the equation of the
plane above the second quadrant (passing through points
a
,
c
and
d
). Give the equation in rectangular
coordinates and write your answer in an input cell in the form “

Question 5
: What you calculated in question 4 is the volume of the soybeans in the second quadrant in
terms of the heights
ha
,

. Plug in sample values of
ha
=

=
30 into this volume expression.
The shape corresponding to these values is a quarter of a cylinder with radius 10 and height 30. Does your
answer for the volume correspond to the correct value of 750
π
?
(If not, you should carefully work through
questions 1-4 to see what went wrong.)

Putting it all together
Question 8
: Define a function in the input cell below called
totalVolume
that takes the list {
ha
,
hb
,
hc
,
hd,
he
} as input and returns the sum of the volume formulas from all four quadrants (Note: It is important that
you define
totalVolume
so that it takes a
list
of five elements as input). The volume from the first quadrant
can be copied from the Soybean Lab introduction notebook.

This function takes as input a list of the data measurements from the five measuring devices and gives the
total volume of the soybeans in the silo. Notice that if you use 30 for each of the heights, the shape will be a
cylinder with radius 10, height 30, and thus a volume of
π

cubic units. You should check to
make sure you get the right answer from your
totalVolume
formula using 30 for each height. If your output
was not 3000
π
, then one or more of the volumes from the second, third or fourth quadrant is incorrect.
Check each one, using height values of 30 for each
ha
,
hb
,... The answer for each should be one quarter of
3000
π
, or 750
π
.
This should help you determine which volume is incorrect.
◼
Making it useful
Mathematica
has the capability of pulling data from the cloud and then performing whatever calculations you
like on that data. In the case of our soybean silo, let’s suppose that the five measuring devices are pushing
data readings to a website where we can access them and calculate the volume of soybeans in real time.
We will use the command
Import t
o access information from the cloud.
Look up the documentation to see
how it works.
Question 9
:
Data from the five measuring devices is stored at the following URL:
http://math.mtu.edu/~jd
-
greger/index_files/soybean.xlsx
In the input cell below, use the command
Import
to retrieve that data. The output should be a list containing
lists with 5 elements. These correspond to the data readings from the measuring devices
