Textbook Question
Chapter 2.8, Problem 112RP
The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that 570,000 barrels of oil would be saved per day if every household in the United States lowered the thermostat setting in winter by 6°F (3.3°C). Assuming the average heating season to be 180 days and the cost of oil to be $55/barrel, determine how much money would be saved per year.

Can you help me with a matlab code? I am trying to plot the keplerian orbital elements over time. I would usually find the orbit using cartesian system and then transform into keplerian orbital elements. Is there a way to directly integrate keplerian orbital elements?

Neglecting the weight of the rope and any elastic deformation, determine the deflection (y) and the tension in portion AC and BC of the rope for values of x from 0.5 m to 10 m using 0.5 m increments. 1.
