6 pts Martha owns an event management firm. During the holiday season, especially during Christmas, she finds herself overloaded with work which often makes her feel irritable and anxious. To calm herself, she often takes time out to go swimming. In this example, the coping strategy that Martha uses can be classified as: Type B coping behavior. cognitive coping. Type A coping behavior. emotion-focused coping. primary appraisal.
A second-order recurrence sequence is defined by the system: $u_0 = 1$, $u_1 = -4$, $u_n = 7 \times u_{n-1} - 10 \times u_{n-2}$ ($n = 2, 3, 4, \dots$). Find the closed form for the sequence. The closed form is: $u_n =$ ($n = 0, 1, 2, \dots$).

2. [10] A rod is made from a material with an ultimate strength of 200 MPa and an endurance limit of 100 MPa. Fully reversed stress at N cycles ($S_N$) is decreased by 20 MPa when N becomes 10 times larger(e.g. $S_{1000} = S_{100} - 20$ MPa). This rod is to be loaded axially with a mean tensile stress of $\sigma_m$ plus an alternating stress of $\sigma_a$. Use the Goodman relationship for the questions below. $\frac{\sigma_a}{S_e} + \frac{\sigma_m}{S_u} = 1$ ($S_e$: endurance limit, $S_u$: ultimate strength) (a) If $\sigma_a = 0.5\sigma_m$, how large $\sigma_m$ can be for the rod to never fail? (b) If $\sigma_m$ is fixed to the value calculated in (a), how large $\sigma_a$ can be in order to use the rod without failure at least for 1000 cycles? Assume the endurance limit corresponds to $10^6$ cycles.
