What are the objectives of using the Waterfall technique?

(Mechanics) The deflection at any point along the centerline of a cantilevered beam, such as the one used for a balcony (see Figure 5.15), when a load is distributed evenly along the beam is given by this formula: d=wx224EI(x2+6l24lx) d is the deflection at location x (ft). xisthedistancefromthesecuredend( ft).wistheweightplacedattheendofthebeam( lbs/ft).listhebeamlength( ft). Eisthemodulesofelasticity( lbs/f t 2 ).Iisthesecondmomentofinertia( f t 4 ). For the beam shown in Figure 5.15, the second moment of inertia is determined as follows: l=bh312 b is the beam’s base. h is the beam’s height. Using these formulas, write, compile, and run a C++ program that determines and displays a table of the deflection for a cantilevered pine beam at half-foot increments along its length, using the following data: w=200lbs/ftl=3ftE=187.2106lb/ft2b=.2fth=.3ft

(Civil eng.) Modify the program written for Exercise 9 to determine the maximum load that can be placed at the end of an 8-foot I-beam, shown in Figure 2.21, so that the stress on the fixed end is 20,000lbs/in2. Use the fact that this beam’s rectangular moment of inertia is 21.4 in4 and the value of c is 3 in.

(Heat transfer) The formula developed in Exercise 5 can be used to determine the cooling time, t, caused only by radiation, of each planet in the solar system. For convenience, this formula is repeated here (see Exercise 5 for a definition of each symbol): t=Nk2eAT3fin A=surfaceareaofasphere=4r2 N=numberofatoms=volumeofthespherevolumeofanatom Volume of a sphere sphere=43radius3 The volume of a single atom is approximately 11029m3 . Using this information and the current temperatures and radii listed in the following chart, determine the time it took each planet to cool to its current temperature, caused only by radiation.

(Transportation) Road construction requires estimating the expected loads on a road’s pavement over its design life. A common approach for determining this information is to use ESAL values; one ESAL is the load a single 18,000-lb (80,000 N) single-axle truck applies to the road’s surface. The ESAL value for any single-axle vehicle can be approximated by this formula: ESAL=[W18,000]4 ESAL is the equivalent single-axle load. W is the vehicle’s weight (lbs). Using this formula, write, compile, and run a C++ program that determines ESAL values and use it to complete the following chart. The ESAL values should be output in a field width of 10, with six digits after the decimal point.

One _________________ is one cycle per second.

(Practice) Determine a step-by-step procedure (list the steps) to do the following tasks: a. Fix a flat tire. b. Make a telephone call. c. Log on to a computer. d. Roast a turkey.

Define the term ‘sphere of influence,” and describe how it can be used to classify software.

(Electrical eng.) a. Write, compile, and run a C++ program that calculates and displays the value of the current flowing through an RC circuit (see Figure 3.19). The circuit consists of a battery connected in a series to a switch, a resistor, and a capacitor. When the switch is closed, the current, i, flowing through the circuit is given by this formula: i=(EIR)et/RC Eisthevoltageofthebatteryinvolts.Risthevalueoftheresistorinohms.Cisthevalueofthecapacitorinfarads.tisthetimeinsecondsaftertheswitchisclosed.eisEulersnumber,whichis2.71828( roundedtofivedecimalplaces). Using this formula, write, compile, and run a C++ program to determine the voltage across the capacitor shown in Figure 3.19 when t is 0.31 seconds. (Note: The value of RC is referred to as the system’s time constant.) The program should prompt the user to enter appropriate values and use input statements to accept the data. In constructing the prompts, use statements such as “Enter the voltage of the battery.” Verify your program’s operation by calculating by hand the current for the following test data: Testdataset1:Voltage=20volts,R=10ohms,RC=0.044,t=0.023secondsTestdataset2:Voltage=35volts,R=10ohms,RC=0.16,t=0.067seconds b. Check the value computed by your program by hand. After verifying that your program is working correctly, use it to complete the following chart:

(General math) The area of an ellipse (see Figure 3.5) is given by this formula: Area=ab Using this formula, write a C++ program to calculate the area of an ellipse having a minor axis, a, of 2.5 inches and a major axis, b, of 6.4 inches.
