Work with a partner. Use a ball and three rubber bands. a. Construct a great circle on the ball using a rubber band. b. Construct a second distinct great circle. At how many points do the two great circles intersect? Compare this to the number of points at which two distinct lines can intersect in the plane. c. How many great circles can you construct through two points that are not antipodal? Explain.

1. Two siblings, Kaeya and Diluc, decided to take a walk around Mondstadt, following its perimeter guarded by walls. For those who haven't seen Mondstadt, you can imagine it as a city of walls with beautiful German architecture. Let's roughly assume that the walls are encircling it in a perfect circle. Both Kaeya and Diluc started at the front of the huge city gate (marked at 0 degrees), and they walk separately, away from each other. Assuming that radius of the circular city of Mondstadt to be 500 m, and the constant walking speed of both siblings to be 0.5 m/s, how long until the siblings achieve the greatest separation distance between them? 2.
