The Speed of Sound in Gases
When traveling through a gas, the speed of sound depends primarily on the density of the medium. The less dense the medium, the faster the speed will be. The following table shows the approximate speed of sound at O degrees Celsius, measured in meters per second, when traveling through carbon dioxide, air, helium, and hydrogen.
| Medium | Speed (meters per sec) |
| Carbon dioxide | 258.0 |
| Air | 331.5 |
| Helium | 972.0 |
| Hydrogen | 1270.0 |

If the number of items bought is less than 5, then the shipping charges are $7.00 for each item bought; if the number of items bought is at least 5, but less than 10, then the shipping charges are $3.00 for each item bought; if the number of items bought is at least 10, there are no shipping charges. Correct the following code so that it computes the correct shipping charges. if (numOfItemsBought > 10)shippingCharges = 0.0;else if (5 <= numOfItemsBought || numOfItemsBought <= 10);shippingCharges = 3.00 * numOfItemsBought;else if (0 < numOfItemsBought || numOfItemsBought < 5)shippingCharges = 7.00 * numOfItemsBought;
Wind chill is the temperature is the temperature it actually feels when wind accompanies cold temperatures. When the wind is blowing with velocity V (mph) and the air temperature is T (degrees Fahrenheit) the Wind Chill can be calculated using this formula
Wind Chill = 35.74 + 0.6215T - V^0.16 (35.75- 0.4275T)
Compute the wind chill for a temperature of 25 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 21 Miles per hour
Blank degrees Fahrenheit
Report the answer to the nearest tenth degree
In Java Golf scores record the number of strokes used to get the ball in the hole. The expected number of strokes varies from hole to hole and is called par (possible values: 3, 4, or 5). Each score's name is based on the actual strokes taken compared to par: "Eagle": number of strokes is two less than par "Birdie": number of strokes is one less than par "Par": number of strokes equals par "Bogey": number of strokes is one more than par Given two integers that represent the number of strokes used and par, write a program that prints the appropriate score name. Print "Error" at the end of the output if par or score is not in the expected range.
If the input is:
3 4
the output is:
Par 4 in 3 strokes is Birdie

The formula is BMI = kg/m2 where kg is a person's weight in kilograms and m2 is their height in meters squared. Calculate a persons Body Mass index using their weight in pounds. This means you must first convert pounds to kilograms (kg) then apply the formula above. In converting pounds to kg, 1 pound = 0.453592 kg. So to convert pounds to kg, either multiply the pound value by 0.45359237 or divide by 2.2046226218. Then you must convert their height in inches to meters. The length in meters is equal to the inches multiplied by 0.0254. Write a program that accepts a users height as an integer in inches and their weight in pounds. Convert those inputs to their metric equivalents outlined above and determine their body mass index. Display what the conversions from and to their metric equivalents are. Display the body mass index and the category it belongs to.arrow_forward

This is 1st of January and Aladdin will be in jail for one year. He was recently caught for helping forty thieves. Now he has nothing to do. But he knows that Jasmine is waiting for him. At some point he got an idea to give Jasmine a magical program that can find intervals of months from a year. This allows her to easily determine how long it will take for Aladdin to get out. Then Aladdin rubs the magic lamp and The Genie appears. Then he asked The Genie to make such a magical program. Unfortunately the Genie doesn't know programming and he wants your help to create that magical program. Genie will give you N as the day of the year and you have to print in which month that day is.

The factorial of a number n can be solved using the following formula: n !=e−n nn √ 2 πn. If there are 18 people in your class and you want to divide the class into programming teams of 3 members, you can compute the number of different teams that can be arranged using this formula (n!/r!(n−r)!). When writing a C++ program that determines the number of potential team arrangements. You will need to use the double type for this computation.arrow_forward

At the end of 10 years, you would like tohave $10,000 in the account. How much do you need to deposit today to make that happen?You can use the following formula, which is known as the present value formula, to find out:The terms in the formula are as follows: [5 marks]• P is the present value, or the amount that you need to deposit today.• F is the future value that you want in the account. (In this case, F is $10,000.)• r is the annual interest rate.• n is the number of years that you plan to let the money sit in the account.Write a method named presentValue that performs this calculation.
