Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 13ICA
A phase diagram for carbon and platinum is shown. It is assumed the lines shown are linear, and the mixture has the following characteristics. The endpoints of the division line between these two phases are labeled on the diagram.
■ Below 1700 degrees Celsius, it is a mixture of solid platinum (Pt) and graphite (G).
■ Above 1700 degrees Celsius, there are two possible phases: a Liquid (L) phase and a Liquid (L) + phase (G).
Write a program to determine the phase. The program should ask the user to enter the weight percent carbon and the temperature in degrees Celsius. Call the phases “Pt + G,” “L,” and “L + G,” for simplicity. If the point falls directly on the T = 1700°C line, include the point in the “Pt + G” phase. If the point falls directly on the L, L + Gline, include the point in the “L + G” phase.
Store the phase as text in a variable. The equation of the line dividing the L and L + G phases must be found in the program using polyfit. The program should produce a formatted output statement to the command window. Similar to “For X.XX weight percent carbon and a temperature of YYY degrees Celsius, the phase is PHASE” where x.xx, yyy and PHASE are replaced by the actual values formatted as shown.
The following partial code is designed to implement this program. You are to fill in the missing sections of code as appropriate to complete the program.

PROBLEM 16.121
End A of the 6-kg uniform rod AB rests on the inclined surface, while end B is
attached to a collar of negligible mass which can slide along the vertical rod
shown. Knowing that the rod is released from rest when = 35° and neglecting the
effect of friction, determine immediately after release (a) the angular acceleration
of the rod, (b) the reaction at B.

Problem 1. End A of the uniform 5-kg bar is pinned freely to the collar, which has an acceleration
a = 4 m/s² along the fixed horizontal shaft. If the bar has a clockwise angular velocity @ = 2 rad/s
as it swings past the vertical, determine the components of the force on the bar at A for this instant.
