Chapter 1, Problem P5P

a.

Explanation of Solution

  • Cars propagate the tollbooths of length 75 km at a speed of 100km/hr and the tollbooth takes 12 seconds to service each car. There are 10 cars which take 12 × 10 = 120 seconds or 2 minutes to cross a tollbooth.
  • At first tollbooth, the propagation delay of the cars is 45 minutes and reaches the second tollbooth after 2 + 45 = 47 minutes.
  • The process repeats with second and third tollbooths and also takes 120 seconds or 2 minutes time for service.

Finally, the total propagation delay is calculated using following formula

thepropagationdelay= timetakenforserviceinfirsttollbooth+timetakento reachsecondtollbooth

b.

Explanation of Solution

  • Cars propagate the tollbooths of length 75 km at a speed of 100km/hr and the tollbooth takes 12 seconds to service each car. There are 8 cars which take 12 × 8 = 96 seconds to cross a tollbooth.
  • At first tollbooth, the propagation delay of the cars is 45 minutes and reaches the second tollbooth after 46 minutes and 36 seconds.
  • The process repeats with second and third tollbooths and also takes 96 seconds time for service.

Finally, the total propagation delay is calculated using following formula

thepropagationdelay= timetakenforserviceinfirsttollbooth+timetakento reachsecondtollbooth+</

57 Formula 1 point Use shift folding, length 3, on the following value to calculate the Hash Value. 114184121 Type your answer...
Write a program that reads a list of 10 integers, and outputs those integers in reverse. For coding simplicity, follow each output integer by a space, including the last one. Then, output a newline. Ex: If the input is: 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 the output is: 20 18 16 14 12 10 8 642 To achieve the above result, first read the integers into an array. Then output the array in reverse. 623802 1031906 nx3zmv7.
