You buy a toy phone for your little brother to play with, and its measurements are 6 inches by 3 inches. What is the aspect ratio?

(Practice) You’re given the task of wiring and installing lights in your attic. Determine a set of subtasks to accomplish this task. (Hint: The first subtask is determining the placement of light fixtures.)

(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.

(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
