Step 1 - Solve parts a and b of problem 103 and problem 104 below.



Problem 103



Sailboat stability.

To be considered safe for ocean sailing, the capsize screening value
C
should be less than 2 (www.sailing.com). For a boat with a beam (or width)
b
in feet and displacement
d
in pounds,
C
is determined by the function















a)

Find the capsize screening value for the Tartan 4100, which has a displacement of 23,245 pounds and a beam of 13.5 feet.

b)

Solve this formula for
d.


Problem 104



Sailboat speed.

The sail area-displacement ratio
S
provides a measure of the sail power available to drive a boat. For a boat with a displacement of
d
pounds and a sail area of
A
square feet
S
is determined by the function













a)

Find
S
to the nearest tenth for the Tartan 4100, which has a sail area of 810 square feet and a displacement of 23,245 pounds.

b)

Write
d
in terms of
A
and
S.




Step 2 - Write a two to three page paper that is formatted in the style according to the attached PDF example and be concise in your reasoning. In the body of your essay, please make sure to include:


  • An explanation of what the parts of the formula mean before using it to get your answers. Study the Instructor Guidance examples to learn how to solve the formula for another variable.


  • Your solution to the above problems, making sure to include all mathematical work.


  • A discussion of how and why these concepts are important in the “real world.” Describe another situation that could be evaluated using these concepts.



The paper must be at least two pages in length and formatted according to APA style. Cite your resources in text and on the reference page. For information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center, within the Learning Resources tab on the left navigation toolbar.

Problem 103
a)
Given,
displacement (d)
= 23,245 pounds and,
beam (b)
= 13.5 feet
Formula for computing capsize screening C is,
C =
C = 4(13.5)
Here are the values plugged into the formula.
According to order of operations I must apply the exponent first (exponent computed by calculator).
C = 4(.035)(13.5)
Performing two multiplications.
C = (.1402)(13.5)
C = 1.89
As capsize screening value is less than 2, it’s...
