Question
Chapter 37, Problem 1A
To determine
The thickness of the cover of a book measured with the help of digital micrometer.
Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution
Digital micrometers can be used to measure the linear dimensions such as length, diameter and thickness. The main components of a micrometer are frame, anvil, lock nut,thimble marks,ratchet stop, spindle, sleeve,display with LCD screen, units conversion key, and the key for turning ON and OFF.
The thickness of the book can be measured in the following steps.
- Dry all the surfaces of the micrometer and clean the surfaces with the help of cloth or a cloth soaked or dipped in the cleaning oil.
- The digital micrometer is to be closed completely and the thimble is to be turn in such a manner that the zero line aligns to the center line of sleeve.
- Now the ON/OFF button should be pressed on the digital micrometer. The zero reading on the digital micrometer means that the thickness of the book can be read directly.If the reading on the micrometer is not zero, the thimble and ratchet stop is to be adjusted so that it reads zero.
- The jaws of the digital micrometer are opened by carefully revolving ratchet of the micrometer.
- The cover of a book is placed inside the anvil of the micrometer. The micrometer anvil is kept vertically to the book thickness to be measured.
- The locknut on the digital micrometer are locked so that there is no further change in the reading of the digital micrometer.
- The result will vary depending on the type of cover used for measurement.
- The average thickness of the cover of a book is 0.1 mm.

- In this exercise, we will investigate a technique to prove that a language is notregular. This tool is called the pumping lemma.The pumping lemma says that if M = (S, I, f, s0, F ) is a DFA with p states (i.e., p = |S|) and if the wordw is in L(M ) (the language generated by M ) and w has length greater than or equal to p, then w may bedivided into three pieces, w = xyz, satisfying the following conditions:1. For each i ∈ N, xy^i z ∈ L(M ).2. |y| > 0 (i.e., y contains at least one character).3. |xy| ≤ p (i.e., the string xy has at most p characters). Use the pumping lemma to show the following language is not regular (HINT: Use proof by contradictionto assume the language is regular and apply the pumping lemma to the language):L = {0^k1^k | k ∈ N}arrow_forwardA prefix of length ℓ of some word w are the first ℓ characters (in order) of w.1.

Explain why every word generated by your context-free grammar (in Part 1) is contained in L. Then,prove via induction that every w ∈ L is produced by your context-free grammar.arrow_forwardConsider a simplified version of American football where on any possession ateam can earn 0, 3 or 7 points.
