Chapter 1, Problem 1.17MD
(2010 “Flash Crash”) An example of the consequences of our excessive dependence on computers was the so-called “flash crash” which occurred on May 6, 2010, when the U.S. stock market fell precipitously in a matter of minutes, wiping out trillions of dollars of investments, and then recovered within minutes. Research online the causes of this crash and discuss the issues it raises.

- (Mechanics) The deflection at any point along the centerline of a cantilevered beam, such as the one used for a balcony (see Figure 5.15), when a load is distributed evenly along the beam is given by this formula: d=wx224EI(x2+6l24lx) d is the deflection at location x (ft). xisthedistancefromthesecuredend( ft).wistheweightplacedattheendofthebeam( lbs/ft).listhebeamlength( ft). Eisthemodulesofelasticity( lbs/f t 2 ).Iisthesecondmomentofinertia( f t 4 ). For the beam shown in Figure 5.15, the second moment of inertia is determined as follows: l=bh312 b is the beam’s base. h is the beam’s height. Using these formulas, write, compile, and run a C++ program that determines and displays a table of the deflection for a cantilevered pine beam at half-foot increments along its length, using the following data: w=200lbs/ftl=3ftE=187.2106lb/ft2b=.2fth=.3ftarrow_forward3.

In addition, there will be a master switch to turn the system on or off. Let us assume that there is a car door switch D, a vibration detector switch V, and the master switch M. We will use the convention that when the door is opened D = 1, otherwise, D = 0. Similarly, when the car is being shaken, V = 1, otherwise, V = 0. Thus, we want the siren S to turn on, that is, set S = 1, when either D = 1 or V = 1, or when both D = 1and V = 1, but only for when the system is turned on, that is when M = 1. However, when we turn off the system, and either enter or drive the car, we do not want the siren to turn on. Hence, when M = 0, it does not matter what values D and V have, the siren should remain off.
