Determine e2by calculating the sum of the series for:(a) n = 5, (b) n = 15, (c) n = 25For each part create a vector n in which the first element is 0, the incrementis 1, and the last term is 5, 15, or 25. Then use element-by-element calculations to create a vector in which the elements are . Finally, use the MATLAB built-in function sum to add the terms of the series. Compare thevalues obtained in parts (a), (b), and (c) with the value of e2calculated byMATLAB.

A usual football tryout involves a player running a 40-yard dash. If a particular player finishes the dash in 4.25 seconds while reaching his maximum speed at the first 16 yard mark with a constant acceleration and then maintains that speed for the remainder of the run, determine this person’s acceleration over the first 16 yard, his maximum speed and how long he accelerated. Set your own variables as you see fit.

- As4. 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_forwardWrite an iterative computational model to predict and display the motion of a block of mass 60g that sits on the top of a vertical spring of stiffness 8 N/m and relaxed length 20cm. Use initial conditions that represent the block at rest on top of the spring, which has been pushed down until its total length is 10cm. Define a loop that moves the block under the force of gravity and spring force. Update the axis of the spring.arrow_forwardLearning Goal: To be able to add and subtract vectors using geometric and vector addition.

Assume that the exit is at the bottom of the tank. g is the gravitational acceleration What to Do: 1. Build a model in Simulink to calculate the water level, h, as a function of time. Your model should stop running as soon as the tank is full. 2. Assuming the height of the tank is 2 meters, after how many seconds does the tank fill up? Use the following constants to test your model: • A: area of the bottom of the tank = 1 m? • p: the density of fluid = 1000 kg/ m? • R: the resistance at the exit = 3 (kg.m)-1/2 • ho: Initial height of the fluid in the tank = 0 m • g: the gravitational…arrow_forward

Use the integration capabilities of a graphing utility to approximate the fluid force against a vertical gate used to stop the flow of water when the water is 3 feet deep?arrow_forward1) The first man who studied and partially understood the kinematics of a particle falling in the earth's gravitational field was Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519). He constructed an apparatus consisting of two vertical boards, hinged together on one side and covered with blotting paper on the inside faces. A leaking water tap lets drops fall down between the boards at presumably equal intervals of time. When a string is suddenly pulled, the boards are clapped together and the positions of the drops on the blotters can be inspected. Suppose that the vertical boards are 3 feet long and the leaking faucet is at such height and the rate of dropping is so regulated that when a drop is just coming out of the faucet, the next or second drop is just at the top of the boards and the sixth drop is at the bottom of the boards, while drops 3, 4 and 5 are between the boards. Calculate the number of drops leaving the faucet per second. ANS. 11.35 drops/secarrow_forward
