Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 4P
We can build a control system that will automatically adj ust a motorcycle” s radio volume as the noise generated by the motorcycle changes. The noise generated by the motorcycle increases with speed. As the noise increases, the system increases the volume of the radio. Assume that the amount of noise can be represented by a voltage generated by the speedometer cable, and the volume of the radio is controlled by a dc voltage (Hogan I988). If the dc voltage represents the desired volume disturbed by the motorcycle noise, draw the functional block, diagram of the automatic volume control system, showing the input transducer, the volume control circuit, and the speed transducer as blocks. Also, show the following signals: the desired volume as an input, the actual volume as an output, and voltages representing speed, desired volume, and actual volume. An animation PowerPoint presentation (PPT) demonstrating this system is available for instructors. See Motorcycle. [Section 1.4: Introduction to a Case Studyl

You are the mechatronics engineer of a manufacturing plant. You decide to perform an analysis on a robot arm of the assembly line with the objective of optimizing its performance. After taking several readings of the speed of the arm’s end effector, you approximate its velocity to the function given below.
v(t) = -t4 + 5t3 - 7t2 + 3t + 0.22 0 =< t =< 3
where the velocity is in ms-1
d) Knowing that the distance travelled by an object is the area under its velocity-time graph, determine the distance travelled by the end effector on the interval 0 =< t =< 1 by using
the mid-ordinate rule.
Simpson’s rule
correct to 3 decimal places using four intervals.
e) Calculate the same distance as in (d) above by using the appropriate definite integral.
f) Compare the distances you calculated in (d) and (e) above and comment on the accuracy of the two methods you used in (d)
How do I input this code into MATLAB to solve this problem? Thanks!
I wanted to know how to create plots like these in MATLAB. I belive they were called herpolhode plots.

- How would I plot the aircraft pitch angle response to elevator step inputs of -10, and +10 degrees for a duration of five seconds by implementing short period approximation using Simulink. What would the block diagram/ simulink layout roughly look like?arrow_forwardAs4. This is my third time asking this question. Please DO NOT copy and paste someone else's work or some random notes. I need an answer to this question. There is a mass attached to a spring which is fixed against a wall. The spring is compressed and then released. Friction and is neglected. The velocity and displacement of the mass need to be modeled with an equation or set of equations so that various masses and spring constants can be input into Matlab and their motion can be observed. Motion after being released is only important, the spring being compressed is not important. This could be solved with dynamics, Matlab, there are multiple approaches.arrow_forwardMATLAB: Use a built-in MATLAB function to generate position vs. time data and plot the position of the vehicle with time for the entire journey. .arrow_forward
