    Hello, Can anyone review my algorithm lab, first semester in college and i'm in beginning courses for computer science. Still trying to get the hang of things. This is an online course which i should have taken in class. I can't focus enough time on my most important class while juggling a full time job and 19 other units. thanks. I attached my answers in a word document. New to this forum so if this is to much just delete my post thanks in advance. 7. Algorithms Lab* Pseudocode for algorithm design The following exercises focus upon pseudocode, a simple English-like language used to design algorithms. The following program does not represent an a…

    For a piece of GCSE physics coursework, my science teacher has decided that we must all work out the viscosity of some fluids using Stoke's Law, despite there being no mention of it anywhere in the syllabus. Apparently, we are doing it to 'impress the examiner'. The trouble is that I cannot find any websites which provide Stoke's Law in the format necessary to calculate viscosity. I'm aware that there are internet-calculators that can do this for me, however my teacher quickly got wise of these and is now forcing us to write down every piece of working. I'm not asking you to do the calculations for me - I'm not that lazy - but it would really help if someone could…

    Hello everybody! I need help, and would appreciate any help anybody could help me to solve a problem that I'm having difficulty with. To tell you about myself: I'm a 40+ regular Joe (not a student) who have picked up again his love for Math, and decided to teach himself Calculus and, if possible, higher Math and Physics. I'm using several Calculus books, among them Spivak, Apostol and James Stewart. The math problem that I can't figure out is from James Stewart's SINGLE VARIABLE CALCULUS:CONCEPTS AND CONTEXTS. The problem is the following: "A function f is a ratio of quadratic functions and has a vertical asymptote x=4 and just one x-intercept, x=1. It is known that f ha…

    Hello Now that I get the basics of a chemical equilibrium, I wanted to remake an excercise from my book, which we solved in class: In a closed space with a volume of 2 litres, 18,4 g N2O4 is added. As a consequence of heating this up to 50°C, half of the molecules is being transferred into NO2. a) Calculate the equilibrium constant for this analytic reaction. b) What are the concentrations when the volume is now changed to 1 litre? a) K = 0,22 (this is not the question I'm having problems with) b) Volume is being decreased [math]\Rightarrow[/math] equilibrium shifts to the side with the fewest amount of molecules [math]\Rightarrow[/math] shift to N2O4. …

    Hi, I am trying to convert a turing machine to oblivious turing machine and I was going through an example but could not understand some part of it. The situation is such . There exists a K-tape turing machine M, that has been converted in M' a single tape turing machine the example says we can convert this M' to M'' oblivious turing machine accordingly We really only need to make a few changes to this to make M′ into an oblivious TM M′′: -When M′ updates the encoding in its right-to-left sweep, it may need to move the ˆ marker to the right. However, M′′ cannot stop and move right when it finds the hat, because it is oblivious. Therefore, the head of M′′ must,…

    I feel like a complete idiot. I’ve spent hours on this low mark question but I just don’t get it. I’ve got the 3 forces: W=-mg, H=-k(x-L0)i, R=-rx but I am clueless about C and D let alone how to tackle them. What are they even asking? I’d email my lecturer but he never replies.

    Mom and Dad are both homozygous at all Ig heavy and light chain constant region loci but share no alleles. They have a daughter named Quentin and own two pigs, Porky and Babe. Assume you separated and purified mu heavy chains and lambda light chains from Quentin’s serum. You first immunized Mom and Porky with Quentin’s lambda light chains; then immunized Dad and Babe with Quentin’s mu heavy chains. Answer each of the following questions and concisely explain your reasoning. • Will any of the four antisera’s specificities be exactly the same? Explain your reasoning. • Make a table showing how each antiserum would react with the serum of each family m…

  9. Hi I have an assignment question which I have no clue on how to start.I am posting the question. I would really appreciate if someone could guide me on how to solve it. Question: Show that for every time-constructible T: N → N, if L ∈ DTIME(T(n)), then there is an oblivious TM that decides L in time O(T (n) log T (n)). Any material that will help solve it or any similar examples would be highly appreciated.

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but couldn't think of a better place seeing as science deals with a lot of data. I have to come up with a Hypothesis, Compile the data, If I'm right write a paper explaining why or if I'm wrong explain why I was wrong in my Hypothesis to the best of my ability. What I'm looking for is data based on every nine years starting from 1980 so I can setup a Frequency table.

  12. Show that if L is a regular language, then LR = fwR : w 2 Lg is also a regular language. (Note: this means that the words in LR are all of the words of L written in reverse.) (Hint: start with a DFA and make an NFA). If I understand well, I just have to write a random DFA with a random number of states and alphabet of my choosing and do exactly the reverse, and finally convert it to a NFA?

  14. We have the following question posed, I have been thrown into year two Astro Biology without having done year one, I am at a total and complete loss as to what is being asked here.. Is anyone able to shed light on what is being expected? Consider a single proton, currently part of a carbon atom located in an amino acid (let’s say glycine) molecule that is itself part of an enzyme catalysing chemical reactions in a cell somewhere in your body (let’s say the little finger of your left hand). Give a brief account of the life history of this proton, from its origin to its current location. Some parts of this history can be well-specified, whereas for large tracts of …

    A searchlight uses a parabolic reflector and a 2000 watt electric arc lamp that emits light equally in all directions to produce a parallel beam of light. Assuming that the focal point of the reflector lies in the plane defined by the rim of the reflector, how many watts of power are contained in the main beam of the searchlight? Using the same parabolic reflector and lamp, how could you modify the searchlight so that you could get more of the light into the main beam? I am not sure how to approach this. Would the beam still have 2000 watts (conservation of energy), or perhaps more than 2000 watts since it is enhancing and reflecting some of the energy/light from the …

  20. In my high school physics class we are working with energy. We had the following problem that puzzled us slightly: A 70 kg box is pulled horizontally with a constant force of 200N. It is pulled for the first 10 meters across a frictionless surface, and then is pulled another 10 meters over a surface with a coefficient of of friction that is equal to .3. Find the final velocity of the box. so the the total energy done is equal to: (200)(10) + (200)(10) - (70)(9.8)(10)(.3) = 1954 Therefore, it is equal to the final kinetic energy 1954= 1/2 (70)(v2) v= 7.5 m/s. This is all fine and dandy, but the problem appears to arise in the second part where the …

  23. A yeast extract contains all the enzymes required for alcohol production. The extract is incubated under anaerobic conditions in 1 liter of media containing: 200 mM glucose, 20 mM ADP, 40 mM ATP, 2 mM NADH, 2mM NAD+, and 20 mM Pi (inorganic phosphates). What is the max amount of ethanol that can be produced in these conditions? I have no idea what to do at all for this problem. Is there an equation for ethanol production?
