Building Collaboration Reflection

1. During the TESLA statistics inquiry math I listened to my teammates as much or more than I was speaking to my teammates.

Agree or disagree and why?

Well, I believe I did equal amounts, listening and talking, no good project is done with no talking.

 2. During the TESLA statistics inquiry math I considered my teammates’ ideas.

Agree or disagree and why?

Yes, I believe I did consider my teammate's ideas.

3. During the TESLA statistics inquiry math my partner and I shared the work.

Agree or disagree and why?

Yes, me and my partners did share the work.

4. If I were to work with this team again I would:

Well, the first main thing I would do would be to do the project with my partner in real life instead of skyping  him.

24 % 2 - (4 X 4) + 40 =
24 % 2 - 16 + 40 =
12 - 16 + 40
-4 + 40
=36

2 to the fifth power - 48 X (3x42) - 6+63 =
2 to the fifth power - 48 X 126 - 6+63 =
32 - 48 X 126 - 6+63

inquiry math

my first example is the San Francisco Bay Bridge:

The San Francisco Bay Bridge is 4.46 miles, or 282 585 600 000 micro inches long. which is also
 7 849.6 yards long.


my second example is The Lake Pontchartrain bridge in Louisiana:
 it is 126,024 feet long, or
 7.956 044 621 6 leagues long, which is also 3 miles long (a league is a unit of measurement that used refers to how far a horse could walk in an hour but since then other countries have specified how long it actually is) The lake Pontchartrain bridge cost $51,000,000 to build which is 352410000.0000 Bolivian bolivianos


my third, and last example is the Si-o-se pol bridge in Iran.
it is 297.76 meters long which is  0.000000298 gigameters which is also 297760000 microns.

bridge math reflecton

what i learned: i learned about different types of bridges and the physics that keeps them standing
what was challenging about this inquiry math: it was challenging building bridges and keeping them stable
what did i do to overcome these challenges: look up real world bridges and base my bridges off of them

bridge math

My first, second, and fifth bridges can be classified as a modified version of simple beam bridges.

This is a real beam bridge, they aren't meant to span as large lengths as other bridges
 The world's longest beam bridge is Lake Pontchartrain Causeway in southern Louisiana in the United States, at 23.83 miles
this is a real beam bridge that i found on google earth, it spans a river in cape coral florida:

My third, fourth, and fifth bridges can be classified as trestle bridges:

This is a regular trestle bridge. Trestle bridges work be evenly distributing the weight over the whole bridge. The same with inverse trestles. the worlds largest trestle bridge is tulip trestle in Greene county
