    1-083-FallingMeteorites-ModelingScenario
    After introducing the solution to the ordinary differential equation which models a falling object with drag (first-order, non-linear, separable), students will consider generalizing the model to a falling and disintegrating meteorite. The focus...

    6-008-PursuitModels-Modeling Scenario
    Students are prompted to build systems of nonlinear differential equations to model pursuit-evader activities in which a pursuer attempts to follow, perhaps track down and come close to, an evader without knowledge of the evader's intentions, just...

    3-020-ChordPathTime-ModelingScenario
    Using Newton's Second Law of motion we can determine the time it takes for a mass to slide along a chord of a vertical circle from high point to any point along the circle. Initially, the result is nonintuitive and challenging to understand.

    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?

    1-116-TropicalStormWindspeeds-ModelingScenario
    We model the decay of tropical cyclone winds once a storm makes landfall. We use data from two recent storms from the National Hurricane Center to estimate parameters emanating from a differential equation using a first order exponential decay model.

    4-060-CircuitTuner-ModelingScenario
    We present essential definitions and laws for the study of simple RLC electrical circuits and build a differential equation model using these notions. We describe how such a circuit can be used to tune a radio to a certain input frequency.

    5-090-SolidParticleErosion-ModelingScenario
    By applying Newton's second law, and making a collection of reasonable assumptions, students will derive a system of differential equations that model the path of a rigid particle as it gouges material from a more ductile surface.
