- This is a Computer Graphics Question on Phong's Lighting Model. Question: A light source with intensity 50 and radius of influence 100 is located at (4,2,93) from which you are called to calculate the illumination of a point on the yz plane. For no shiny surface and negligible ambient light, find the point on the surface with the highest illumination and light intensity at that point. Given the diffuse coefficient is 0.7.arrow_forwardConsider the stochastic differential equation VX,(1- X) dWı %3D where (Wi) is a Brownian motion. This is the Wright-Fisher model in genetics: X, is the frequency of a gene (the fraction of a population of individuals that have that gene). |(a) Use R, Matlab, or some other language to generate random variates 21,..., 21024 according to the standard normal distribution. (b) Use the random variates in (a) to simulate an approximate realization of (Wt) for 0arrow_forwardConsider a gas in a piston-cylinder device in which the temperature is held constant. As the volume of the device was changed, the pressure was mecas- ured.

(d) Usc cubic splinc interpolation to cstimate the volume if the pressure is mcasured to be 1000 kPa. 4.arrow_forwardUsing MATLAB, develop a computer program for the finite difference solution with general θ scheme for the 1D consolidation of a uniform layer of soil. Compare the results for θ=0, 0.5, 2/3 and 1.0 for α=0.49 and α=0.51 against the analytical solution of Terzaghi’s equation for T=0.5. Apply the program to both cases of double draining layer and single draining layer.arrow_forward1. Assume that a function f is in polynomial time and can be computed in time 0(n) and that g is in polynomial time and can be computed in time 0(n°). Prove that f composed with g, that is f(g(x)), can be computed in time 0(n5).arrow_forwardShow that F(x, y, z) = xy + xz + yz has the value 1 if and only if at least two of the variables x, y, and z havethe value 1.arrow_forwardCertain bacteria cells are being observed in an experiment. The population triples in 1 hour. If at the end of 3 hours, the population is 27,000, how many bacteria cells were present at the start of the experiment? After how many hours, approximately, will the number of cells reach 1 million?arrow_forwardlet p = 998167 and the pointP = (10, 2500).(a) Using A = 100250, solve for the value of B that results in an elliptic curve Earrow_forwardQUESTION An observation indicates that the frog population Q(t) in a small pond is 25 initially and satisfies the logistic equation Q(t)' = 0.0225Q(t) – 0.0003Q(t)?, (with t in months.) a. Apply Modified Euler's method together with any computer program to approximate the solution for 10 years. Use the step size ofh = 1 and then with h = 0.5 b. Find out the percentage of the limiting population of 75 frogs has been attained after 5 years and after 10 years c. Summarize your findings in (b)arrow_forwardSuppose that a parachutist with linear drag (m=50 kg, c=12.5kg/s) jumps from an airplane flying at an altitude of a kilometer with a horizontal velocity of 220 m/s relative to the ground. a) Write a system of four differential equations for x,y,vx=dx/dt and vy=dy/dt. b) If theinitial horizontal position is defined as x=0, use Euler’s methods with t=0.4 s to compute the jumper’s position over the first 40 s. c) Develop plots of y versus t and y versus x. Use the plot to graphically estimate when and where the jumper would hit the ground if the chute failed to open.arrow_forwardFor a quadratic equation ax-+ bx + c = 0 (a#0), discriminant (b--4ac) decides the nature of roots. If it's less than zero, the roots are imaginary, or if it's greater than zero, roots are real. If it's zero, the roots are equal. For a quadratic equation sum of its roots = -b/a and product of its roots = c/a. Write a complete C program that calculates the roots of a quadratic equation. The program must request inputs of a,b, and c from the user and print the entered equation, and its roots into the output stream.arrow_forward4. The moment generating function of the random variable X is given by 10 Mx (t) = exp(2e¹-2) and that of Y by My (t) = (e² + ²) ² Assuming that the random variables X and Y are independent, find (a) P(X+Y 0).
