Students have asked these similar questions
As the potential across the resistor increased, the current through the resistor increased. If the change in current is proportional to the voltage, the data should be in a straight line and it should go through zero. In these two examples how close is the y-intercept to zero? Is there a proportional relationship between voltage and current? If so, write the equation for each run in the form potential = constant x current. (Use a numerical value for the constant.)

Fahrenheit to Celsius using multiple statements
Given a Fahrenheit value temperatureFahrenheit, write a statement that assigns temperatureCelsius with the equivalent Celsius value.
While the equation is C = 5/9 * (F - 32), as an exercise use two statements, the first of which is "fractionalMultiplier = 5/9;"]
Points for stress vs strain (in image)
Assume the compressive concrete strength (f’c) is 3,000 lb/in2 (psi)Calculate a cubic function (3rd order polynomial – Ax3+Bx2+Cx+Constant)Use this function to create a function that describes the slope of the cubic function (the derivative of thecubic function). This new function allows you to calculate the tangent to any point along the curve. Thetangent is the modulus of elasticity (E).
The concrete code provides a formula to calculate E for concrete. That formula is:E = 57,000√??′, where f’c is in units of psi, and E is in units of psi.Use the derivative function you calculated to locate the point on the curve where the slope of the curvematches E using the concrete code formula. Express that stress point on the curve as a percentage ofthe compressive strength of the concrete.
Now, calculate the secant modulus for the test case using 1,500 psi (50% f’c) as the arbitrary point onthe curve.Assume fracture occurs at the last point…
