For the exam tomorrow you can expect 8 calculations. Don't expect any basic calculations involving vectors. Most of that material will be covered by calculations in other problems(i.e. cross product by finding
B and

, length of a vector in the arclength integral). There will be one abstract problem(like 17 from the review) involving some vector identity.
As far as the bonus, it could be one of three things:
1. A four dimensional generalization of the cross product.
2. A projectile motion question similar to the "baseball in the wind" example from class.
3. Combining curves to form something "nice" in terms of curvature.
Good Luck!
I think I could do 1. I know I could do 2. For some reason whenever a math teacher uses the word "nice", it generally results in me doing 30 minutes of calculations before giving up in frustration.
