The year is 2020 and the Conference of the Parties (COP26) is taking place in Beijing. Nations have finally conceded that it is no longer feasible to limit global temperature rise to 2°C by means of existing approaches based on mitigation. An alternative response to global warming is needed and three options are being discussed:

Adaptation

Geoengineering based on carbon dioxide removal

Geoengineering based on solar radiation management

Which of these do you believe should be given priority? Justify your answer.

The UK’s Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) has an annual budget of £500 million to spend on national initiatives to tackle climate change. This budget may be spent in three main policy areas: (1) mitigation, (2) adaptation or (3) geoengineering. Which area do you think should receive the largest portion of the budget? Justify your choice.

Q. A hypothetical velocity field is given in Cartesian Coordinates by: V? = 4z^2t i ?...

Q. A hypothetical velocity field is given in Cartesian Coordinates by: V? = 4z^2t i ? 4x k where i, j and k are the unit base vectors. t is the time variable and (x, y, z) are the Cartesian Coordinates in the ( i, j , k ) directions respectively. The fluid density is constant and given by p = 1000kg/m^3

5(a) Give the (x, y, z) components of V? which are written
(u, v, w)respectively. Check whether the flow satisfies the
appropriate continuity equation and conclude whether this
flow is physically possible. Note that the general continuity
equation is given on the formulae sheet at the end exam
paper.

5(b) Give the general expression of the acceleration field from
the above velocity field in the Eulerian frame of reference
and calculate the acceleration at (t, x, y, z) = (t, ?1,5,1) and
at (t, x, y, z) = (1, ?1,5,1) .

5(c) Calculate the component of the velocity in the direction of
the vector t = 2 i + a j, written Vt (where a is an unknown constant) . This can be obtained from:
Vt = V??t/|t |

where the dot indicates the dot product of vectors and the
bold font indicates that we are dealing with vectors.

5(d) Check whether the pressure field p = 2x + y satisfies the
appropriate form of the incompressible x momentum
equation which may be derived from the equation given on
the formulae sheet at end of the examination paper. You
can neglect gravity.

Write a function that takes a C string as an input parameter and reverses the string.

in c++

Write a function that takes a C string as an input parameter and reverses the string. The function should use two pointers, front and rear. The front pointer should initially reference the first character in the string, and the rear pointer should initially reference the last character in the string. Reverse the string by swapping the characters referenced by front and rear, then increment front to point to the next character and decrement rear to point to the preceding character, and so on, until the entire string is reversed. Write a main program to test your function on various strings of both even and odd length.
