Chapter 2, Problem 13PP

The Harris–Benedict equation estimates the number of calories your body needs to maintain your weight if you do no exercise. This is called your basal metabolic rate, or BMR.

The formula for the calories needed for a woman to maintain her weight is BMR=655+(4.3×weight in pounds)+(4.7×height in inches)–(4.7×age in years)

The formula for the calories needed for a man to maintain his weight is BMR=66+(6.3×weight in pounds)+(12.9×height in inches)–(6.8×age in years)

A typical chocolate bar will contain around 230 calories. Write a program that allows the user to input his or her weight in pounds, height in inches, age in years, and the character M for male and F for female. The program should then output the number of chocolate bars that should be consumed to maintain one’s weight for the appropriate sex of the specified weight, height, and age.

A pendulum is simply a weight attached to a fixed point, usually through a string or a rod, and it swings freely backward and forward. The period of a pendulum is the amount of time that it takes to go from one point to another as it swings. Length of pendulum SWING T = PERIOD of the swing The formula to compute the period (7) is the following: T = 2π g=9.8 m/sec² L is the arm length of pendulum in meters. The unit of the period (7) is seconds. Write a program that will generate a table that will show the period (7) for several pendulums with lengths (L) in the range 10cm ≤L≤ 100cm in increments of 2cm. Your code must: 1) include a user-define function that performs a single period calculation, use the following function prototype: void pendulumPeriod(float length, float *period) 2) display to the monitor the length and period of the pendulums in table format with a header and units. 3) save the lengths and period of the pendulums to a file.
In Saudi Arabia, the Kudai Parking Area is a parking lot that is next to the Ajyad Police Station and close to the Power Plant. Kudai is a well-known parking space near Masjid al-Haram. After parking there, you can take a taxi to Masjid al-Haram for 10-15 Riyals for a 10-minute drive. The parking is usually heavily occupied, and the following formula is used to compute the parking lot uțilization: Percentage of Parking Lot Utilized - Number of lots occupied + Total number of lots Write a program that calculates the occupancy rate for each zone of a massive parking lot like Kudai. The program should start by asking for the number of zones in the parking lot. A loop should then iterate once for each zone. During each iteration, the loop should ask the user for the number of lots in the zone and the number of them that are occupied. After all the iterations, the program should display the number of lots the parking has, the number of them that are occupied, the number that is vacant, and…
Interest Rates Savings accounts state an interest rate and a compounding period. If theamount deposited is P, the stated interest rate is r, and interest is compounded m timesper year, then the balance in the account after one year is P⋅(1+rm)m. For instance, if$1000 is deposited at 3% interest compounded quarterly (that is, 4 times per year), thenthe balance after one year is1000⋅(1+.034)4=1000⋅1.00754=$1,030.34.Interest rates with different compounding periods cannot be compared directly.The concept of APY (annual percentage yield) must be used to make the comparison. TheAPY for a stated interest rate r compounded m times per year is defined byAPY=(1+rm)m−1.(The APY is the simple interest rate that yields the same amount of interest after oneyear as the compounded annual rate of interest.) Write a program to compare interestrates offered by two different banks and determine the most favorable interest rate. SeeFig. 4.24.
