Textbook Question
Chapter 16.6, Problem 13CC
Assume a cell array named CA has three cells in a single row
• The first cell contains a name in the formal X. Y. Family.
• For example: M. V. Smith
• The second cell contains a 2×3 matrix. For example: [1 3 5; 9 6 3]
• The third cell contains a 3×2 matrix. For example: [4 7; –2 –6: 0 1]
- a. Extract the family name (Smith in the example above) from 1he first cell and place it in column one of a newly created second row of CA. Your solution should work for family names of any length. Note that the first six characters of the name in the first cell will always be the two initials, each followed by a dot and a space.
- b. Multiply the matrix in the second cell of row 1 by the matrix in the third cell of row 1 and place the result in the second row, second column of CA.
- c. Calculate the element-wise product of the matrix in row 1, column 2 with the transpose of the matrix in row 1, column 3. Place the result in the third column of the second row of CA.

Answer the following statements by True or False:
1. Superchargers are used to increase the power of an IC engine by raising the
intake pressure and thus allowing more fuel to be burned per cycle.
2. Scavenging is the process by which the oil rings scrape the lubricating oil
from the cylinder wall and allow the oil to return to the oil pan.
3. The power output of a two-stroke engine equals that of a four-stroke engine
for the same displacement.
4. After coolers are used after the compressor to drop the air temperature and thus
increase its density.

5. The rotary engine has the advantages of better sealing of high pressure gases
and less wear on seals.
