Chapter 2, Problem 2.17PE
(Science: wind-chill temperature) How cold is it outside? The temperature alone is not enough to provide the answer. Other factors including wind speed, relative humidity, and sunshine play important roles in determining coldness outside. In 2001, the National Weather Service (NWS) implemented the new wind-chill temperature to measure the coldness using temperature and wind speed. The formula is
twc = 35.74 + 0.6215ta − 35.75v0.16 + 0.4275tav0.16
where ta is the outside temperature measured in degrees Fahrenheit, v is the speed measured in miles per hour, and twc is the wind-chill temperature. The formula cannot be used for wind speeds below 2 mph or temperatures below −58°F or above 41 °F.

(USE 1 DECIMAL FOR CALCULATION) A researcher believes that design and the safety of the cars is very important for the customers when buying a car. In order to understand the brand perception of customers' researcher shows three different car pictures and ask them can you classify this car in picture) as "sporty" or "safety? the following cross tabulation is obtained. Test the claim that car brand and consumer perception is dependent Automobiles Sporty Safety
BMW 60 130
Mercedes 90 120
Renault 50 50
Calculate the test statistics .
(Hard drive storage capacity) If you buy a 40 GB hard drive, then chances are that the actual storage on the hard drive is not 40 GB. This is due to the fact that, typically, a manufacturer uses 1,000 bytes as the value of 1K bytes, 1,000 K bytes as the value of 1 MB, 1,000 MB as the value of 1 GB. Therefore, a 40 GB hard drive contains 40,000,000,000 bytes. However, in computer memory,1 KB is equal to 1,024 bytes, and so on. So the actual storage on a 40 GB hard drive is approximately 37.25 GB. (You might like to read the fine print next time you buy a hard drive.) Write a program that prompts the user to enter the size of the hard drive specified by the manufacturer, on the hard drive box, and outputs the actual storage capacity of the hard drive.
(Financial application: find the profit-per-item) You have just started a new
stationary shop. Your profit-per-item depends on the total quantity of item sold.
The scheme shown below is used to determine the total profit:
Quantity
Profit-per-item
0-1000
$1
1001-5000
$2
5001 and above
$5
Note that this is a graduated profit. The profit for selling up to 1000 items is $1,
for next 4000 items is $2 and beyond that is $5. If the total quantity of item sold
is 10000, the profit is 1000 * $1 + 4000 * $2 + 5000 * $5 = $34000.
Your goal is to make $50,000 a year. Write a program that uses a do-while
loop to find out the minimum quantity of item you have to sell in order to make
$50,000.

- "NEED ONLY CODE NO EXPLANATION" Harry has a big wall clock, that got hit while he was playing. Now, the minute hand doesn't rotate by the angle 2π/3600 each second, but now it moves according to different angle x. You can assume that coordinates of the centre of the clock are (0, 0) and the length of the minute hand is l. One endpoint of the minute hand is always located at the clock centre; the other endpoint is initially located at the point (0, l). One second later, Harry observes that this endpoint is at distance d above the x-axis, i.e., the y-coordinate of this endpoint is equal to d. Harry is curious about where the minute hand will be (specifically, its y-coordinate) after t seconds. Because t can be very large, Harry can't wait for that moment. Please help him to write a python code that prints a single line containing the output.
