Maths Week 2020 Maths Week 2020 Survivor Series – Tuesday Level 3 Questions What to do for students 1 You can work with one or two others. Teams can be different each day. 2 Do the tasks and write any working you did, along with your answers, in your maths book. 3 Your teacher will tell you how you can get the answers to the questions and/or check your work. 4 When you have finished each day, your teacher will get a surprise word. 5 At the end of the week you will have five words. Put the words together and you will have a complete surprise message! 5 Good luck. The Americas Cup Question 1: America’s Cup Facts Some questions will need access to on-line sites such as Wikipedia. (a) The first race for the America’s cup was held in 1851. How many years ago was this? (b) Speed at sea is measured in knots. The AC72 class used in the last America’s cup had a speed of over 40 knots. How fast is 40 knots in kilometres per hour? (c) How many different countries have won the America’s cup? Name them. (d)(i) Which of these international trophies is the oldest? The Ashes, The America’s Cup, The Wimbledon Trophy (ii) How many years older than its nearest rival is this trophy? Question 2 Switzerland is in the middle of Europe. Although it is landlocked (surrounded by land) it has won the America’s cup twice as it uses Lake Geneva as its home base. The picture below gives a map of Switzerland and parts of some other nearby countries. Using Google maps or an atlas will help to answer these questions. (a) If you start at Lake Geneva, and travel due west, what country will you enter? (b) What country is north of Zurich? (c) Due south of the city of Zermatt is the city of _________ in the country of ________ . (d) The smallest country in Europe is towards the south east of Zurich. What is its name? Question 3 The map image below is from Google Earth and shows parts of the city of Auckland as well as a lot of the area at sea where the America’s Cup event will be held in 2021. Overlaid are gridlines showing latitude (horizontal) and longitude (vertical). Latitude and longitude are used to locate positions on maps. Here, they are being measured in degrees (°) and minutes (‘). With angles, a minute has 60 seconds, just like time. When reading coordinates, the first number is always the latitude and the second is the longitude. On the map, the latitude measurements refer to the horizontal line immediately below the number. The longitude measurements refer to the vertical line immediately to the left of the number. (a) What is the name of the island at 36° 43’ S and 174° 57’ E? (b) What is the name of the suburb at 36° 47’ S and 174° 46’ E? (c) What bay is located at 36° 51’ S and 174° 50’ E? (d) What is the location of pin A? (e) What is the location of pin B? Question 4 The name of the yacht Emirates Team New Zealand will use to defend the America’s Cup is Te Aihe. The Māori name Te Aihe means “The Dolphin”. It was chosen because it comes from the whakatauki "Mā te Aihe e tuitui ai i te ngaru moana, mā te Rangatira e tuitui ai i te tangata" ("As the dolphin sows through the seas so does a leader sew people together"). Te Aihe is an AC75 class sailboat, and is capable of travelling up to 50 knots without stopping. A dolphin’s top speed is 14.6 knots, which it can only reach by repeatedly leaping out of the water for up to 1500 m. By comparison, the world record for a human, set by César Cielo in 2009, is 46.91 seconds set over a distance of 100 m. (a) One knot is approximately 0.5 metres per second. What is the speed of Te Aihe in metres per second? (b) How much faster than a dolphin is Te Aihe? Give the answer in m/s. (c) How much slower than Te Aihe is the fastest human? Give the answer in m/s. (d) How many seconds will it take Te Aihe to sail 100m at its top speed? Question 5: America’s Cup Battleships Each student chooses a partner. In turn, they try to guess the locations of the other player's ships on the grid. The boats named are all past winners of the America’s Cup (or potential winners, in the case of Te Aihe). Step 1 Each player draws two 10 x 10 grids, labelled along the sides with letters and numbers as shown below. Continued on the next page. Step 2 One player plays for the Team NZ boats, and the other for the World boats. On the left-hand grid the player secretly draws their boats as below. Each boat occupies a number of adjacent squares (1 x 5, 1 x 4, 1 x 3, and 1 x 1) on the grid, horizontally or vertically (diagonal placements are not allowed). Team NZ World Black Magic Australia 2 Aotearoa America Te Aihe Alinghi KZ7 USA17 NZL60 USA17 How to play Players take turns to hit their opponent’s boats by calling out the coordinates of a square (eg D5). The opponent responds with "hit" if it hits a boat or "miss" if it misses. Each time a player scores a “hit”, the player gets another turn. If the player has hit the last remaining square of a boat, the opponent must announce that a boat has been sunk and give its name (eg "You sank KZ7"). During play each player should record the opponent's shots on the left-hand grid, and their shots on the right-hand grid as "X" for a hit and "O" for a miss. The first player to sink all of the opponent’s boats wins the America’s Cup! .

  • Race with World Sailing! World Sailing Sustainability Education Programme
    Topic 1 Race with World Sailing! World Sailing Sustainability Education Programme Supported by 1 2 Topic 1 | Race with World Sailing Welcome to the World Sailing Sustainability Education Programme! World Sailing started in 1907 in Paris and is the world governing body for the sport of sailing. The organisation promotes sailing internationally, manages the sailing at the Olympics and Paralympics, develops the racing rules of sailing, and supports sailors from all over the world. World Sailing is formed of national authorities in 145 countries as well as 115 classes of boat. World Sailing wants its sailors to share their love of sailing, while working together to protect the waters of the world. Sailing is part of a global movement to create change and positive impact, and you can be a part of this through your actions, on and off the water. To help sailors do this, there is a plan, called World Sailing’s Sustainability Agenda 2030. This plan describes changes within sailing that will help achieve 12 of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and maximise the positive effect that sailors can have on the environment. The agenda was put together by a sustainability commission made up of experts and after lots of feedback it was adopted in May 2018 by all 145 member national authorities. There are 56 separate targets grouped under 6 recommendations. This education programme contributes to the recommendation to ‘Deliver Sustainability through Training’. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals were published in 2015 to end extreme poverty, fight inequality and injustice and combat climate change by 2030.

  • Update: America's
    maxon motor Australia Pty Ltd Unit 1, 12 -14 Beaumont Rd. Mount Kuring -Gai NSW 2080 Tel. +61 2 9457 7477 [email protected] www.maxongroup.net.au October 02, 2019 The much -anticipated launch of the first two AC75 foiling monohull yachts from the Defender Emir- ates Team New Zealand and USA Challenger NYYC American Magic respectively did not disappoint the masses of America’s Cup fans waiting eagerly for their first gl impse of an AC75 ‘in the flesh’. Emirates Team New Zealand were the first to officially reveal their boat at an early morning naming cere- mony on September 6. Resplendent in the team’s familiar red, black and grey livery, the Kiwi AC75 was given the Maori nam e ‘Te Aihe’ (Dolphin). Meanwhile, the Americans somewhat broke with protocol by carrying out a series of un -announced test sails and were the first team to foil their AC75 on the water prior to a formal launch ceremony on Friday September 14 when their dark blue boat was given t he name ‘Defiant’. But it was not just the paint jobs that differentiated the first two boats of this 36th America’s Cup cycle – as it quickly became apparent that the New Zealand and American hull designs were also strikingly differ- ent.On first compar ison the two teams’ differing interpretations of the AC75 design rule are especially obvi- ous in the shape of the hull and the appendages. While the New Zealanders have opted for a bow section that is – for want of a better word – ‘pointy’, the Americans h ave gone a totally different route with a bulbous bow that some have described as ‘scow -like’ – although true scow bows are prohibited in the AC75 design rule.

  • Performance of Wing Sail with Multi Element by Two-Dimensional Wind
    Bulletin of the JSME Vol.10, No.2, 2015 Journal of Fluid Science and Technology Performance of wing sail with multi element by two- dimensional wind tunnel investigations Hiroyuki FURUKAWA*, Alexander W. BLAKELEY **, Richard G.J. FLAY ** and Peter J. RICHARDS ** * Department of Mechanical Engineering, Meijo University 1-501 Shiogamaguchi, Tenpaku-ku, Nagoya 468-8502, Japan E-mail: [email protected] **Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Auckland 314-390 Khyber Pass Road, Auckland, New Zealand Received 30 April 2015 Abstract Following the 33rd America's Cup which featured a trimaran versus a catamaran, and the recent 34th America's Cup in 2013 featuring AC72 catamarans with multi-element wing sail yachts sailing at unprecedented speeds, interest in wing sail technology has increased substantially. Unfortunately there is currently very little open peer- reviewed literature available witha focus on multi-element wing design for yachts. The limited available literature focuses primarily on the structures of wings and their control, rather than on the aerodynamic design. While there is substantial available literature on the aerodynamic properties of aircraft wings, the differences in the flow domains between aeroplanes and yachts is significant. A yacht sail will operate in a Reynolds number range of 0.2 to 8 million while aircraft operate regularly in excess of 10 million. Furthermore, yachts operate in the turbulent atmospheric boundary layer and require high maximum lift coefficients at many apparent wind angles, and minimising drag is not so critical. This paper reviews the literature onwing sail design for high performance yachts and discusses the results of wind tunnel testing at the Yacht Research Unit at the University of Auckland.

We follow their progress and will give regular updates on their journey to Defend the America’s Cup. Emirates Team New Zealand 15 February , 2019. THE UNTOLD STORY OF THE BIRTH OF FOILING IN THE AMERICA'S CUP. In late August 2012 a grainy photo of a boat emerged online. Most hardened America’s Cup follow- ers will clearly remember the image that was the talk of the sailing world for many weeks. A high angle shot, looking down on a giant 72 foot red and black Emirates Team New Zealand catamaran seemingly flying above the waters of the Auckland’s Waitemata Harbour. Debate raged: “OMG photoshopped of course,” “Can't be foiling - anyone can see fro m that picture they're simply launched off a wave.” “On close inspection it is photoshop. You can see where the bow and stern were in the water. They have cut, lifted an pushed the boat forward 1/2 a boat length. Shame. That was cool for about 5 min” An image that was so far outside the realms of the imagination of most people - but not those inside the base of Emirates Team New Zealand. The cat was out of the bag, foiling had arrived. But there had been many months of secretive R&D meet- ings at Emirates T eam New Zealand that went into developing a concept that would transform the world of America’s Cup racing forever. Rewind to 2011, two years out from the 34th America’s Cup in San Francisco.

  • Institutional Racism and the Dynamics of Privilege in Public Health
    Institutional Racism and the Dynamics of Privilege in Public Health A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Management at The University of Waikato by HEATHER ANNE CAME _____________________________________ 2012 ABSTRACT Institutional racism, a pattern of differential access to material resources and power determined by race, advantages one sector of the population while disadvantaging another. Such racism is not only about conspicuous acts of violence but can be carried in the hold of mono-cultural perspectives. Overt state violation of principles contributes to the backdrop against which much less overt yet insidious violations occur. New Zealand health policy is one such mono- cultural domain. It is dominated by western bio-medical discourses that preclude and under-value Māori,1 the indigenous peoples of this land, in the conceptualisation, structure, content, and processes of health policies, despite Te Tiriti o Waitangi2 guarantees to protect Māori interests. Since the 1980s, the Department of Health has committed to honouring the Treaty of Waitangi as the founding document of Māori-settler relationships and governance arrangements. Subsequent Waitangi Tribunal reports, produced by an independent Commission of Inquiry have documented the often-illegal actions of successive governments advancing the interests of Pākehā3 at the expense of Māori. Institutional controls have not prevented inequities between Māori and non-Māori across a plethora of social and economic indicators. Activist scholars work to expose and transform perceived inequities. My research interest lies in how Crown Ministers and officials within the public health sector practice institutional racism and privilege and how it can be transformed.
