Chapter 18, Problem 24ICA

We go to a state-of-the-art amusement park. All the rides in this amusement park contain biometric sensors that measure data about potential riders while they are standing in line. Assume the sensors can detect a rider’s age, height, weight, heart problems, and possible pregnancy. Help the engineers write the conditional statement for each ride at the park based on their safety specifications

  Variable Definitions:
A % Age of the potential rider (as an integer)
H % Height of the potential rider (as an integer)
HC % Heart condition status (‘yes if the person has a heart condition, ‘no’ otherwise)
P % Pregnancy status (1 if pregnant, 0 Otherwise)

a. The Spinning Beast: All riders must be 17 years or older and more than 62 inches tall and must not be pregnant or have a heart condition

if __________

fprintf (‘Sorry, you cannot ride this ride’);

end

b.    The Lame Train: All riders must be 8 years or younger and must not be taller than 40 inches

if __________

fprintf (‘Sorry, you cannot ride this ride’);

end

c.    The MATLAB House of Horror: All riders must be 17 years or older and must not have a heart condition.

if __________

fprintf (‘Welcome to the MATLAB House of Horror’);

end

d.    The Neck Snapper: All riders must be 16 years or older and more than 65 inches tall and must not be pregnant or have a heart condition

if __________

fprintf (‘Welcome to The Neck Snapper!’);

end

e.    The Bouncy Bunny: All riders must be between the ages of 3 and 6 (including those 3 and 6 years old)

if __________

fprintf (‘This ride is made just for you!’);

end

Posted below is a picture of a data table and a diagram of an experiment. In the experiment you rolled a marble down a ruler ramp off the end of a coffee table to observe projectiles and conservation of energy. You do 3 trials for each initial height. Each height is measured in meters. h= initial height of marble off of table Y= height of table off floor X= horizontal distance marble goes from edge of table to where it strikes the floor a) use the table to find information you need to solve for theoretical range and % of error in measured range.
A mercury thermometer, which has been on a table for some time, is registering the room temperature, 50°F. Suddenly, it is placed in a 395°F oil bath. The following data are obtained for the response of the thermometer. If after 10 seconds the thermometer reading is 176 F, determine the thermometer time constant. Round off the final ans to whole number Please show your complete solution and write readable.
1.  Circle weather the following statements are true or false. If the statement is true justify your reasoning if the statement is false correct the statement to make it true or justify why it is false a. Impulse is the integral of a force vs distance graph b. In two dimensions analyzing linear and angular momentum provides up to three scalar equations. c. Linear acceleration and angular acceleration both have units of ft/s^2 or m/s^2 d. When absolute motion or a rigid body it is important to find a function that relates linear and angular position then integrate to find velocity  e. Instantaneous centers can only be determined for velocity and only for a snapshot in time
