Chapter 15, Problem 17ICA
For each of the following problems except part (h), write a single MATLAB statement that will accomplish the stated purpose.
a. Create a 150 × 150 matrix N9999 that contains all zeros except for the major diagonal (upper left to lower right). All elements on the major diagonal should contain the value -9999.
b. Create a 1200 × 1200 matrix p75 that contains all zeros except for the minor diagonal (lower left to upper right). All elements on the minor diagonal should contain the value 75.
c. Place the number of rows of matrix Ma into MaRows and the number of columns of matrix ma into maCols.
d. Assume matrix my. contains a single nonzero value. Place the row number containing this nonzero value into NZR and the column number into NZC.
e. Assume matrix Mz has already been defined. Place the row numbers of all elements in Mz that are negative into
f. Assume that matrix ms has already been defined. Place the elements on the major diagonal into row vector MSD.
g. Create a 5 × 9 matrix RM that contains random numbers chosen between -50 and +50.
h. Place the smallest value and the location within the matrix RM (created above) into MinRM. You may use more than one MATLAB statement to accomplish this task.

Air enters the 1-m2 inlet of an aircraft engine at 100 kPa and 20°C with a velocity of 184 m/s. Determine the volume flow rate, in m3/s, at the engine’s inlet and the mass flow rate, in kg/s, at the engine’s exit. The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kPa·m3/kg·K.
The volume flow rate at the engine’s inlet m3/s.
The mass flow rate at the engine’s exit is kg/s.
The ventilating fan of the bathroom of a building has a volume flow rate of 33 L/s and runs continuously. If the density of air inside is 1.20 kg/m3, determine the mass of air vented out in one day.
The mass of air is kg.
A steady-flow compressor is used to compress helium from 15 psia and 70°F at the inlet to 200 psia and 600°F at the outlet. The outlet area and velocity are 0.01 ft2 and 100 ft/s, respectively, and the inlet velocity is 53 ft/s. Determine the mass flow rate and the inlet area. The gas constant of helium is R = 2.6809 psia·ft3/lbm·R.
The mass flow rate is lbm/s.
The inlet area is ft2.
