Question

Transcribed Image Text:Problem 2: Write a simple algorithm that calculates the speed of sound (a) in air of a given
temperature (t).
For this program you must use this formula:
a = 1086 √(5t +297)/247
Note that the formula gives the speed (a) in feet/sec and uses the temperature (t) in degrees
Fahrenheit. You must convert both units (search online for the conversion formulas)
because the temperature will be in degrees Celcius and the expected speed in km/h. Write
your solution as a sequence of steps that can be followed in order.
Next, write a C program that asks the user for the temperature in degrees celsius and give
the answer in kilometers per hour. You must write a user-defined function for the formula
that calculates the speed of sound. Your function must be named spsound and take as
argument the temperature in degrees celsius.

- A half-life is the amount of time it takes for a substance or entity to fall to half its original value. Caffeine has a half-life of about 6 hours in humans. Given caffeine amount (in mg) as input, output the caffeine level after 6, 12, and 24 hours. Use a string formatting expression with conversion specifiers to output the caffeine amount as floating-point numbers. Output each floating-point value with two digits after the decimal point, which can be achieved as follows: print(f'{your_value: .2f}') Ex: If the input is: 100 the output is: After 6 hours: 50. 00 mg After 12 hours: 25.00 mg After 24 hours: 6.25 mg Note: A cup of coffee has about 100 mg. A soda has about 40 mg. An "energy" drink (a misnomer) has between 100 mg and 200 mg.arrow_forwardBody Mass Index is a simple calculation using a person's height and weight. The formula is BMI = kg/m2 where kg is a person's weight in kilograms and m2 is their height in meters squared. Calculate a persons Body Mass index using their weight in pounds. This means you must first convert pounds to kilograms (kg) then apply the formula above. In converting pounds to kg, 1 pound = 0.453592 kg. So to convert pounds to kg, either multiply the pound value by 0.45359237 or divide by 2.2046226218. Then you must convert their height in inches to meters. The length in meters is equal to the inches multiplied by 0.0254. Write a program that accepts a users height as an integer in inches and their weight in pounds. Convert those inputs to their metric equivalents outlined above and determine their body mass index. Display what the conversions from and to their metric equivalents are. Display the body mass index and the category it belongs to.arrow_forwardA half-life is the amount of time it takes for a substance or entity to fall to half its original value.

For example, if the user enters 3141 then your program should display 3+1+4+1=9.arrow_forwardPython Only answer: Alice is playing Air Hockey with Bob. The first person to earn seven points wins the match. Currently, Alice's score is A and Bob's score is B. Charlie is eagerly waiting for his turn. Help Charlie by calculating the minimum number of points that will be further scored in the match before it ends. Input Format The first line of input will contain an integer T - the number of test cases. The description of T test cases follows. The first and only line of each test case contains two space-separated integers A and B, as described in the problem statement. Output Format For each test case, output on a new line the minimum number of points that will be further scored in the match before it ends.arrow_forward
- C level program 1. Write a program that takes an integer n as input (from Keyboard) and compute and display (a) The sum of digits. (b) The integer with digits reversed, and multiplied by 3. For example, if the input is 4318, then in part (a), you'll display integer 4318, and sum of digits 4 + 3 + 1 + 8 = 16; and in part (b), you'll compute and display 8134 and also 24402, which is 4318 * 3. (c) Test your program with 3 integers: 4318, 401, and an integer of 5 digits of your choice.

Additionally, they are doing away with the previous day off program and now using a percent of sales increase to determine if employees get individual bonuses. If sales increased by at least 4% then all employees get a $50 bonus. If they do not, then individual bonuses are 0. Step 7: The final step in completing the pseudocode is to call all the modules with the proper arguments. Complete the missing lines.
