sm_01 Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Hi, my math ia topic : achilles and the tortoise paradox my problem: is that im not sure if this is enough? will applying the situation to for example people walking and a bus moving (real time speeds) be enough? and using math from the syllabus? pls feel free to share any thoughts :) Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kw0573 Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 This problem was satisfactorily solved by calculus, including what you will learn. The topic is somewhat theoretical and requires very good ability to explain the math (or lack thereof). Zeno's paradoxes may be more suitably used as part of larger exploration on continuity and discreteness in mathematics. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kw0573 Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 I suggest that you choose, or modify to get, a topic with more equations and connections to syllabus (or what you have learned). Typically, you may have to brainstorm multiple topics before settling on one. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
