Textbook Question
Chapter 16, Problem 19ICA
For each MATLAB code segment shown, write the function header necessary to convert the code segment into a function. Use the guidelines specified with each problem.
- a. The function will have one output, the variable x. The function will be stored in a file named candyCrush.m.
X = (A+B+B^A)*pi;
- b. The function should have five output variables: the paintable area of each wall (all four walls) and the total paintable area. You may assume this function will be stored in a file named FullHouse.m.
P1 = Wal11 * RoomHeight;
P2 = Wal12 * RoomHeight;
P3 = Wal13 * RoomHeight;
P4 = Wal14 * RoomHeight;
PaintableArea = P1 + P2 + P3 + P4 ;
- c. The function should have three output variables: the minimum value, the maximum value, and the average value. You may assume this function will be stored in a file named MinMaxMean.m.
MyMin = min([D,D^2,D*l0]);
MyXax = max([D^3,D*3,D + 3000]);
MyMean = mean([D/2,D/3,D/4]);

Help with the MATLAB code to do the following:
Given an audio recording of vehicles, compute Power Spectral Density, 1/3 octave band level, octave band level, A-weighted Leq, C-weighted Leq, L10 (unweighted since sample is short), L90 (unweighted since sample is short). If the measurement is made at approximately 50 ft, and that the vehicles are moving at an average of 65 mph, what is the flow rate Q? If instead, the noise is dominated by 1-2 motorcycles, how fast are they going?
Given-
-The data are in counts
-Calibration factor is 133 uPa/count
-Sample rate is 44100Hz. -Remember that in air the dB reference is 20 uPa
-Pwelch requires that the inputs are doubles

The ideal gas law relates the pressure P, volume V, absolute temperature T, and amount of gas n. The law is
P = nRT/ V
where R is the gas constant.
An engineer must design a large natural gas storage tank to be expandable to maintain the pressure constant at 2.2 atm. In December when the temperature is 4°F (- 15°C), the volume of gas in the tank is 28 500 ft3 . What will the volume of the same quantity of gas be in July when the temperature is 88°F (31°C)? (Hint: Use the fact that n, R, and P are constant in this problem. Note also that K =°C +273.2.)
HW Matlab 1) Create a variable ftemp to store a temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (F). Write m-file to convert this to degrees Celsius and store the result in a variable ctemp. The conversion factor is C = (F —32) * 5/9. 2) Write m-file to generate a matrix of random integers of size 100 by 100 their values between 15 to 80. 3) Free fall of objects is given by y =5mgt? where a is the acceleration, v is the velocity, y is the distance, m is the mass of the object, g is the gravitational acceleration. Plot the distance and velocity of the object for 15 seconds after its fall from rest (y = 0). Take m = 0.2 kg.
