Question

Transcribed Image Text:Programming Demo 1.1: Resistors in Series and Parallel
Create a program in Python that will calculate the total resistance of two resistors
connected in series and parallel and will display the result.
1. Type the following code on your Python script.
1 R1 = float(input('Input the value of the first resistor: '))
2 R2 = float(input('Input the value of the second resistor: '))
3
4 RT_series = R1 + R2
5 RT_parallel = 1/(1/R1 + 1/R2)
6
7 print('The total resistance in series is {i.2f} ohms'.format(RT_series), \
'and the total resistance in parallel is {:.2f) ohms'.format(RT_parallel))
8
2. Run the code and try several values for R1 and R2.
3. What does the float command do on the statements on line 1 and line 2?
4. In lines 5 and 6, try changing both {:2f} to {:.3f}. What happens when you run the
program again?

Once the formula is properly encoded you can use the code as much as you want without reprogramming it and you can share it with non-programmers without any trouble. This lab is an example of such a formula. Once you program it you won’t have to worry about the area of a circle again. Write and test a program that computes the area of a circle. This program should request a number representing a radius as input from the user. Use the formula 3.14 × radius2 to compute the area. Tip: There are a couple of ways to code an exponent. Look in the Operators unit for help (and you can’t use an x for multiplication). Tip: You will need to use the float data type to compute the remainder. The output should explain the results. Don’t just print a number. Tip: For your print statement you will need to use the comma, “,”, or plus, “+” symbols to stitch your output together. (“The…arrow_forward

The program is supposed to compute the price of any sign a customer orders, based on the following facts: The charge for all signs is a minimum of $35.00. The first five letters or numbers are included in the minimum charge; there is a $4 charge for each additional character. If the sign is make of oak, add $20.00. No charge is added for pine. Black or white characters are included in the minimum charge; there is an additional $15 charge for gold-leaf lettering.arrow_forwardNote: Please do this in Python 3arrow_forward
