In the late 1980 and early 90’s the toiletswith 3.5 gpf become standard. In 1992 Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) set a newstandard stating that no toilets can use more than 1.6 gpf.

difficulties, however, here we briefly describe a preliminarypilot sample exercise to help students address a small subset of these difficulties. The exercise isintended to be completed by students in small groups of 3 or 4 in a “recitation” type format. Therecitation instructor(s) do not lecture, rather leave the students to complete the task and posequestions to individual groups when they have problems.The exercise focuses on student understanding of the potential energy of two metal atoms as afunction of separation. We chose this topic for several reasons. First, a basic (and we stressbasic) conceptual understanding of the major features of the potential is fundamental tounderstanding the nature of atomic bonds and this can be used throughout the

That is, there is nosolution for which cost is minimized and the other performance criteria are maximized.
