Python Programming Part:
Carbon-14 is constantly produced in Earth's upper atmosphere due to interaction
between cosmic rays and nitrogen, and is found in all plants and animals. After a plant
or animal died, its amount of carbon-14 decreases by about 0.012% per year. Write a
python code to determine the half-life of carbon-14, that is, the number of years
required for 1 gram of carbon-14 to decay to less than 1/2 gram.
Example Output:
Carbon-14 has a half-life
of
years.

- Need assistance with python code. Problem statement: Design the solution to the following problem and implement it in a Python program. Implement a program that allows the user to choose from a menu to calculate the future value of an investment, the present value (how much you need to invest) for a target investment value, or the monthly payment for a loan. The formulas for these quantities are given as follows: A: amount (present value, target value, or loan amount depending on what is calculated) r: interest rate (Note: the user will enter 3.5 for 3.5%. When substituting in the formula, the user input needs to be decimal, that is, 0.035 which is 3.5/100 t= time (number of years for the investment or the loan) (See attached image for reference) Your program will provide a menu to the user with the following options: F - Future Value P - Present Value M- Monthly Payment Q - Quit If the user chooses F, P, or M (or lowercase versions of these letters), then the program…arrow_forwardIdentify and fix the errors in the following code:1 # Display two messages2 print("Welcome to Python")3 print("Python is fun").arrow_forward11.

Using Python, you will write a program called singly-linked-list-arrays.py that implements an ordered singly-linked list using arrays. 2. The data items in your ordered singly-linked list will consist of first names. For example: Adam, Eve, Frank, Mark, Vanessa, etc. 3. Be sure to include the following linked list operations in your Python program: 4 ▪ GetNode(FreeNodes) returns the index of the first available (free) node as indicated in the FreeNodes boolean array. If there are no available (free) nodes, then returns -1. ▪ InsertNode(Data, Link, FreeNodes, newNode, headPtr) inserts a newNode into the linked list, referenced by headPtr, as represented using the Data and Link arrays. The index of the corresponding FreeNode array element is assigned the value of False, indicating that this node is no longer considered "free." Returns +1 if successfully inserted into the list, otherwise returns -1. ▪ DeleteNode(Data, Link, FreeNodes, node ToDelete, headPtr) deletes the…arrow_forwardOpen with Google Docs ENG-101 Intro Computing Engineers Homework 4 Question 16 Scissors. : sints) Write well-documented Python program to play Rock, Paper, Sheldon Cooper, the fictional character on the CBS TV show "The Big Bang Theory", has extended the game Rock Papers Scissors as described below.
