The Speed of Sound in Gases
When sound travels through a gas, its speed 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 0 degrees centigrade, measured in meters per second, when traveling through carbon dioxide, air, helium, and hydrogen.
| Medium | Speed (Meters per Second) |
| Carbon dioxide | 258.0 |
| Air | 331.5 |
| Helium | 972.0 |
| Hydrogen | 1,270.0 |

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
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;

- 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 Birdiearrow_forward18. Tom and Jerry opened a new lawn service. They provide three types of services: mowing, fertilizing, and planting trees. The cost of mowing is $35.00 per 5,000 square yards, fertilizing is $30.00 per application, and planting a tree is $50.00. Write an algorithm that prompts the user to enter the area of the lawn, the number of fertilizing applications, and the number of trees to be planted. The algorithm then determines the billing amount. (Assume that the user orders all three services.) (9)arrow_forwardBody Mass Index is a simple calculation using a person's height and weight. 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

These equations are usually written in the following form:ax2 + bx + c = 0The Quadratic Formula x = ( -b ± √( b^2 - 4ac ) ) / ( 2a ) Where a, b, and c are constants with a ≠ 0. (If a = 0, the equation is a linear equation.)The discriminant is the part of the formula in the square root. If the value of the discriminant is zero then the equation has a single real root. If the value of thediscriminant is positive then the equation has two real roots. If the value of thediscriminant is negative, then the equation has two complex roots.Write a program that finds the roots of the quadratic equation using the Quadratic Formula.

- Welcome to the era of Aladdin and the great magic lamp. 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)!).
