(c). Two Computer Science students, Priscilla and Julius, are discussing how to compare two algorithms for solving a given problem. Priscilla suggests that they should use the execution times of the algorithms as criterion; but Julius insists that they should use the number of statements the algorithms execute as criterion. Discuss the reasons why both criteria they are considering are not good for comparing algorithms; and recommend an ideal solution/criterion that Priscilla and Julius should rather use for comparing algorithms.

Question 2 A rocket is launched vertically. At time t= 0, the rocket has reached an altitude of h0=500 m and is rising at a velocity of v0=125 m/s. The height of the rocket as a function of time is given by: h = -t2 + v0 t + h0 (a) Create a MATLAB function that returns the height of the rocket as a function of time. (b) Plot the height versus time from 0 to 30 seconds with an increment of 0.2 s. (c) Use the ginput command to find the time when the rocket starts to fall back to the ground and the time when it hits the ground. Use formatted output command to display the results as follow: "the rocket starts to fall back at t = .." "the rocket hits the ground at t =..." In MATLAB function codes
3. The diagram below shows the main land routes for vehicular traffic between points A and G in a city. The figures in the arcs represent the cost of traveling between each pair of nodes. a) Manually apply Dijkstra's algorithm to find the cheapest route between A and G (visited nodes and total distance). b) Formulate a linear programming problem in extended form, to determine the shortest route to travel from A to G. Do not use subscripts, name 14 variables, for example XFE would be the variable that indicates that the arc from F to E is used. c) If there is a fixed cost for visiting each node, modify the formulation of the problem to include said fixed cost in the objective function, and the variables and restrictions that are required.

The liquid-liquid extraction process carried out at the Electrochemical Materials Laboratory involves the extraction of nickel (Ni) from the liquid phase into an organic phase. Data from laboratory experiments are given in the table below. Ni phase cair, a (gr/l) 2 2,5 3 Ni phase organik, g (gr/l) 8,57 10 12 Assume that a is the amount of Ni in the liquid phase, and g is the amount of Ni in the organic phase. Quadratic interpolation is used to estimate the value of g, which is given by the following formula: g = x1a? + x2a + x3 a. Find three simultaneous equations based on the data given by the experimental results. b. Use the Gauss Elimination method to get the values of x1, x2 and x3 and then estimate the amount of Ni in the organic phase, if 2.3 g/l of Ni is available in the liquid phase. c. Use the LU Decomposition method to get the values of x1, x2 and x3. and then estimate the amount of Ni in the organic phase, if 2.3 g/l of Ni is available in the liquid phase.
**MATLAB** Write a MATLAB program to generate and plot a Bezier curve. Construct the pro- ´ gram so that it accepts sets of control points as N × 2 matrices. The first and second columns of the matrix should correspond to the x- and y-coordinates of the control points. The program should be able to handle the cases N = 3, 4, and 5.
Analysis: (Describe the problem including input and output in your own words.) Design: (Describe the major steps for solving the problem.) Coding: (Go over your code step by step) Testing: (Describe how you test this program). In other words run your code with sample outputs Analysis of the problem: There is a rectangle with vertices a,b,c,d(let). The position of the vertices are : a=(-5,2.5) b=(-5,-2.5) c=(5,-2.5) d=(5,2.5) The centre of the rectangle is (0,0). Now a point x,y would be given by the user and the program concludes whether the point x,y is within the rectangle or not. The approach of the java code: Take the input of the 2D coordinates from the user. Check whether the horizontal distance is between -5 to 5 and the vertical distance is between -2.5 to 2.5. If the condition is true print the coordinate within the given rectangle. Otherwise print it is not in the rectangle. import java.util.*; class Main{ public static void main(String [] args){ Scanner…
