Chapter 8.1, Problem 63ES
Clocks and Calendars. Use modular arithmetic to determine each of the following.
Disregarding A.M. or P.M. if it is now 7 o’clock,
a. what time will it be 59 hours from now?

2. Derive the component transformation equations for tensors shown be-
low where [C] = [BA] is the direction cosine matrix from frame A to
B.
B[T] = [C]^[T][C]T
3. The transport theorem for vectors shows that the time derivative can
be constructed from two parts: the first is an explicit frame-dependent
change of the vector whereas the second is an active rotational change
of the vector. The same holds true for tensors. Starting from the
previous result, derive a version of transport theorem for tensors.

The club is selling Chinese fortune cookies at a price of $2 per cookie. Each cookie contains a piece of paper with a different number written on it. A random drawing will determine which number is the winner of a dinner for two at a local Chinese restaurant. The dinner is valued at $32. Since fortune cookies are donated to the club, we can ignore the cost of the cookies. The club sold 718 cookies before the drawing. Lisa bought 13 cookies. Lisa's expected earnings can be found by multiplying the value of the dinner by the probability that she will win. What are Lisa's expected earnings?
