Chapter 3, Problem 7PP
In cold weather, meteorologists report an index called the wind chill factor, which takes into account the wind speed and the temperature. The index provides a measure of the chilling effect of wind at a given air temperature. Wind chill may be approximated by the following formula:
v = wind speed in m/sec
t = temperature in degrees Celsius:
W = wind chill index (in degrees Celsius)
Write a function that returns the wind chill index. Your code should ensure that the restriction on the temperature is not violated. Look up some weather reports in back issues of a newspaper or from a weather website and compare the wind chill index you calculate with the result reported or website.

The interest paid on a savings account is compounded daily. This means that if you start with startbal dollars in the bank, at the end of the first day you’ll have a balance ofstartbal * (1 + rate/365)dollars, where rate is the annual interest rate (0.10 if the annual rate is 10 percent). At the end of the second day, you’ll havestartbal * (1 + rate/365) * (1 + rate/365)dollars, and at the end of n days you’ll havestartbal * (1 + rate/365)ndollars. Write a program that processes a set of data records, each of which contains values for rate, startbal, and n and computes the final account balance.
Suppose you want to deposit a certain amount of money into a savings account with a fixed annual interest rate. We are interested in calculating the amount needed to deposit in order to have, for instance, $5000 in the account after three years. The initial deposit amount can be obtained using the following formula:
????????????????????= ????????????????e/(1+????ℎ??????????????)????????????ℎ?
Suppose you are a computer salesman and your income depend on the total sales and commissions earned for the computers that you sell. Commission rates vary depending on how many units you sold (see chart below). Your income equals to the total sales plus the commission where the commission equals to total sales times the commission rate. That is, commission = total sales * commission rate and income = total sales + commission. Total Sales Commission rate % Less than 200 sold 8% (totalsales < 200) Greater or equal to 200 sold 10% (totalsales >=200 & totalsales <400) Greater than to 400 sold 12% (if (totalsales >= 400) Use Multiway if, else if (use as many you need) and else correctly Review slides 3-CH-2 Slide 4 and 8 Write the code correctly as show in the chapter slides.

- In Java - A year in the modern Gregorian Calendar consists of 365 days. In reality, the earth takes longer to rotate around the sun. To account for the difference in time, every 4 years, a leap year takes place. A leap year is when a year has 366 days: An extra day, February 29th. The requirements for a given year to be a leap year are: 1) The year must be divisible by 4 2) If the year is a century year (1700, 1800, etc.), the year must be evenly divisible by 400; therefore, both 1700 and 1800 are not leap years Some example leap years are 1600, 1712, and 2016. Write a program that takes in a year and determines whether that year is a leap year. Default code: import java.util.Scanner; public class LabProgram { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in); int inputYear; boolean isLeapYear; isLeapYear = false; inputYear = scnr.nextInt(); /* Type your code here. */ }}arrow_forwardAerospace engineers sometimes compute the trajectories of projectiles such as rockets. A related problem deals with the trajectory of a thrown ball. The trajectory of a thrown by a right fielder is defined by the (x,y) coordinates as displayed in the Figure below. Find the appropriate initial angle θ0 , if v0 = 30m/s, and the distance to the catcher is 90 m. Note that the throw leaves the right fielder’s hand at an elevation of 1.8 m and the catcher receives it at 1 m.

In the application, you should have the following methods:• FatCalories–This method should accept a number of fat grams as an argument and return the number of calories from that amount of fat.• CarbCalories–This method should accept a number of carbohydrate grams as an argument and return the number of calories from that amount of carbohydrates.arrow_forward
- We have n glasses which can hold a varying amount of liquid. We will say that glass1 is size q1 quarts and glass2 is size q2 quarts, etc. We now give you a size, say x quarts. You must give me a glass of exactly x quarts. You are allowed to fill any glass to exactly its size and to pour any liquid from one glass into another. When you pour, you either have to empty the glass you are pouring from or fill the glass you are pouring into. Can you do it?More concrete example: G1 has size 10 quarts. G2 has size 4 quarts. G3 has size 1 quart. You can get a 5 quart drink by filling G1, pouring 4 quarts from it into G2 and 1 quart of it into G1. After that, G1 has exactly 5 quarts. In the same problem, we could get 8 quarts by filling G2 twice and emptying it into G1 twice. Given This: Write an algorithm to do this and determine its complexity.arrow_forwardIn investment analysis,the following equation is frequently used; A=P(1+r/100)n Where n =10 years.

You buy back part ownership in the home with each monthly payment. The part you have bought back is your equity in the home. If the mortgage amount is P dollars, the monthly interest rate is r as a decimal, and the term of the mortgage is t months, then your equity after k payments is E(k) = P((1 + r)k − 1) (1 + r)t − 1 dollars. In this exercise, assume that the mortgage amount is $200,000, the APR is 6% so r = .06/12 and the term of the loan is 30 years (360 months). (a) Find a formula for the equity. (b) Make a graph of the equity over 360 months, the term of the loan. (c) Does the graph show that you have half-ownership in the home halfway through the term of the mortgage? Halfway through the term of the mortgage corresponds to k1 = _______ payments. From the graph, we see that E(k1) is ________ half of the mortgage amount, so we _______ have half-ownership in the home…arrow_forward
- vvvHarry has a big wall clock, that got hit while he was playing. Now, the minute hand doesn't rotate by the angle 2π/3600 each second, but now it moves according to different angle x. You can assume that coordinates of the centre of the clock are (0, 0) and the length of the minute hand is l. One endpoint of the minute hand is always located at the clock centre; the other endpoint is initially located at the point (0, l). One second later, Harry observes that this endpoint is at distance d above the x-axis, i.e., the y-coordinate of this endpoint is equal to d. Harry is curious about where the minute hand will be (specifically, its y-coordinate) after t seconds. Because t can be very large, Harry can't wait for that moment. Please help him to write a python code that prints a single line containing the output.Input: 4 2 2Output4Harry has a big wall clock, that got hit while he was playing.

After the cashier is free, the next customer is served immediately. Customers arrive at the checkout line at ArrivalRate per minute. Use the function included below (customerArrived()) to return the number of customers arriving in a given minute, determined randomly. The line can only hold so many people, MaxLineSize, until new arriving customers get frustrated and leave the store without purchasing anything.

Suppose that the loan amount is L, r is the interest rate per year, m is the number of payments in a year, and the loan is for t years. Suppose that i = (r / m) and r is in decimal. Then the periodic payment is: You can also calculate the unpaid loan balance after making certain payments. For example, the unpaid balance after making k payments is: where R is the periodic payment. (Note that if the payments are monthly, then m = 12.) Instructions Write a program that prompts the user to input the values of L, r, m, t, and k. The program then outputs the appropriate values. Your program must contain at least two functions, with appropriate parameters, to calculate the periodic payments and the unpaid balance after certain payments.
