    3-027-BobbingDropping-ModelingScenario
    We present two exercises in which we ask students to model (1) falling object experiencing terminal velocity and (2) bobbing block of wood in liquid. We model the motion using Newton's Second Law of Motion and Archimedes' Principle.

    1-085-DrugBolus-ModelingScenario
    Given data on the concentration of a drug in the plasma of a human in mg/L at certain time intervals in hours can we determine the rate at which the drug leaves the plasma as well as the initial amount administered in a intravenous bolus of the drug?

    7-010-MultipleDoses-ModelingScenario
    Two multiple dose drug administration regimens are offered. A drug is to maintain a certain level (above a set minimum and below a set maximum) in the blood stream and one regimen involves bolus injections and another involves steady drip flow...

    1-131-CaffeineElimination-ModelingScenario
    We model the concentration of caffeine eliminated from the human body at a rate proportional to the concentration. This is a ``first-order reaction'' in the language of pharmacokinetics -- the study of how drugs move in the body.

    We model the height of a launched object which is subject to resistance proportional to velocity during its flight. We ask questions about the motion as well, e.g., highest point or apex and terminal velocity.
