(a) Explain five (5) reasons why NCA is migrating
from Analogue to Digital Transmission.
(b) Wireless communication involves transfer of
information without any physical connection between
two or more points. Because of this absence of any
physical infrastructure, wireless communication has
certain advantages and disadvantages. Discuss the
most important ones with examples.
(c) In GSM systems the signal direction from the
mobile station to the network or the base station is
referred to as uplink. Why are lower frequencies given
to the uplink? A mobile network operator was
allocated uplink frequency (890-915MHz) and
downlink frequency (935-960MHz). Calculate the
number of available RF channels for this operator and
the duplex distance if the spectrum has a carrier
separation of 100kHz. Why are Telco’s more
interested in Radio channels?

Weihong Corporation is about to emerge from a Chapter 11 reorganization. Assets of the emerging entity have a total book value of $3,000,000. Of these, assets with a book value of $600,000 are not needed to operate the emerging entity and will be sold for an expected price of $460,000. The remaining assets will be used in operations. Operations are expected to generate an annual net cash flow of $350,000. This amount is projected for the next five years; a discount rate of 10 percent is deemed appropriate. Required Calculate Weihong Corporation’s reorganization value. For convenience, assume the operating cash flows take place at the end of each year. Round your answer to the nearest whole number

1. A street light is supported by two wires and each makes a different angle from each other. The one on the left is 32 degrees from the vertical and the one on the right is 43 degrees from the vertical. Find the tension in each wire if the street light has a mass of 60.0 kg. See notes in week 5 announcement on this problem.
2. There are three masses m1 = 2.0 kg, m2 = 5.0 kg and m3 = 7.0 kg. The mass are all affixed to a massless rod of length 15cm. m1 and m3 are at the ends and m2 is 10 cm from left where m1 is. Calculate the center of mass of the system and specify from which end it is from.
3. A pair of hedge trimmers are 45 cm long from the pivot to the end of the handles. If the person applies of a force of 15 N on each handle and the blades are 3.5 cm long, how much force is applied to the branch?

Write a Python program containing a function named scrabble_sort that will sort a list of strings according to the length of the string, so that shortest strings appear at the front of the list. Words that have the same number of letters should be arranged in alphabetical order. Write your own logic for the sort function (you may want to start from some of the existing sorting code we studied). Do NOT use the built-in sort function provided by Python.
One optional way to test your function is to create a list of random words by using the RandomList function in PythonLabs and passing 'words' as an argument. For example:
>>> from PythonLabs.RecursionLab import *
>>> a = RandomList(20, 'words')
>>> scrabble_sort(a)
>>> print(a)
['mum', 'gawk', 'tree', 'forgo', 'caring', ... 'unquestioned']
Note: you do not need to include the above test case in your solution, but be sure to include at least 2 test cases to verify your scrabble_sort function works.

For this problem you must write the functions in a recursive manner (i.e. the function must call itself) – it is not acceptable to submit an iterative solution to these problems.
A. Complete the recursive function gcd(m, n) that calculate the greatest common denominator of two numbers with the following rules:
# If m = n, it returns n
# If m < n, it returns gcd(m, n-m)
# If m > n, it returns gcd(m-n, n) #
def gcd(m,n): return None # Replace this with your implementation
B. Complete the following function that uses recursion to find and return the max (largest) value in the list u.
# find_max([1, 7, 4, 5] returns 7 # find_ max ([1, 7, 4, 5, 9, 2] returns 9 # def find_max(u):
return None # Replace this with your implementation
C. Complete the following recursive function that returns the zip of two lists u and v of the same length. Zipping the lists should place the first element from each into a new array, followed by the second elements, and so on (see example output).
# zip([1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]) returns [1, 4, 2, 5, 3, 6] # def zip(u, v):
return None # Replace this with your implementation
D. Complete the following recursive function that removes all occurrences of the number x from the list nums.
# remove_number(5, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 5, 2, 1]) returns [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 2, 1] # def remove_number(x, nums):
return None # Replace this with your implementation
E. Write a recursive function removeLetter(string, letter) that takes a string and a letter as input, and recursively removes all occurrences of that letter from the string. The function is case sensitive.
Some example test cases are below:
>>> removeLetter("test string", "t") es sring >>> removeLetter("mississipi", "i") mssssp
>>> removeLetter("To be or not to be is a question.", "t")
To be or no o be is a quesion.
