solve the edo below by laplace transform

A metal plate is 50 cm long, at the end x = 0 to
plate temperature is = 980K. The one-dimensional temperature distribution on the plate
metal is given by the following EDO,d^2T/dx=144T+12 Knowing that T '(0) = 0. Solve for
Laplace and find the algebraic equation that represents Temperature as a function of
plate length X.

answer

T(x) = -1/12 + 490,04 e^-12x + 490,04 e^12x

The mathematical model describes the behavior of a pendulum and is
represented by:

0,5 dQ/dt=24sen(t)+15

One person holds the pendulum and releases it, Q = 0 at t = 0s. Describe this behavior of the pendulum finding the amplitude equation as a function of time. Sketch the graph. On what height is the pendulum when t = 7s?

answer:Q(t) = 48(1 – cost) + 30t

Use the following information gathered by a BLS labor market survey of four households to work. Household 1: Candy worked 20 hours last week setting up her Internet shopping business. The rest of the week, she completed application forms and attended two job interviews. Husband Jerry worked 40 hours at his job at GM. Daughter Meg, a student, worked 10 hours at her weekend job at Starbucks. Household 2: Joey, a full-time bank clerk, was on vacation. Wife, Serena, who wants a full-time job, worked 10 hours as a part-time checkout clerk. Household 3: Ari had no work last week but was going to be recalled to his regular job in two weeks. Partner Kosta, after months of searching for a job and not being able to find one, has stopped looking and will go back to school. Household 4: Mimi and Henry are retired. Son Hank is a professional artist, who painted for 12 hours last week and sold one picture. 1. Classify each of the 10 people into the labor market category used by the BLS. Who are part-time workers and who are full-time workers? Of the part-time workers, who works part time for economic reasons? 2. Describe two examples of people who work part time for economic reasons and two examples of people who work part time for noneconomic reasons.

Jiminy’s Cricket Farm issued a 16-year, 6 percent semiannual coupon bond 2 years ago. The bond currently sells for 91 percent of its face value. The company’s tax rate is 38 percent. The book value of the debt issue is $40 million. In addition, the company has a second debt issue, a zero coupon bond with 11 years left to maturity; the book value of this issue is $30 million, and the bonds sell for 50 percent of par.

a.

What is the company’s total book value of debt? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g. 1,234,567.)

b. What is the company’s total market value of debt? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g. 1,234,567.)
c. What is the aftertax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

The CPU within a computer system employs a split cache system in which the separate instruction and data caches are fully associative. A program runs on this system and writes to a memory mapped register that triggers an I/O device to begin writing a 32-bit value directly into memory at address 0x04CA0000 using DMA and bypassing the cache. The value first written by the device is 0x00001234 and every second thereafter the I/O device writes a new value (= old value + 1) to the same location. Assume that address 0x04CA0000 and the memory mapped device register are the only two data items referenced in memory.

After triggering the I/O device to start writing, the program enters a loop in which it reads the contents of the word at address 0x04CA0000. The loop is repeated once every 5 seconds thereafter. If the first value read within the loop is 0x00001234, what value would be read 35 seconds later?

(dis.3)

Mel O'Conner owns rental properties in Michigan. Each property has a manager who collects rent, arranges for repairs, and runs advertisements in local newspapers. The property managers transfer cash to O'Conner monthly and prepare their own bank reconciliations. The manager in Lansing has been stealing from the company. To cover the theft, he understates the amount of the outstanding checks on the monthly bank reconciliation. As a result, each monthly bank reconciliation appears to balance. However, the balance sheet reports more cash than O'Conner actually has in the bank. In negotiating the sale of the Lansing property, O'Conner is showing the balance sheet to prospective investors.

  • Identify two parties other than O'Conner who can be harmed by this theft. In what ways can they be harmed?
  • Discuss the role accounting plays in this situation. What internal controls could be put in place to prevent this type of theft?

  1. We see government's debt. Every month the government is collecting record revenue amounts yet still runs a deficit. Those deficits have added up to large amounts of debt? Is the government's debt an economic problem? Why or why not?  
  2. Look up the most current unemployment (U3) report? What is significant about that report? What is the current labor force participation rate and why is that an important consideration when evaluating employment? How does U3 differ from U6 #'s?
  3. What are the two options for calculating GDP? What are the key differences and why are they important? Why are CPI & the GDP deflator important considers for evaluating the GDP? What impact will the countries government debt have on the economy?
  4. What is the significance of considering LRAS & SAS in the Macro S & D model?
  5. What do the above economic factors indicate about the current state of our economy?

The assignment is to build a program in Python that can take a string as input and produce a “frequency list” of all of the wordsin the string (see the definition of a word below.)  For the purposes of this assignment, the input strings can be assumed not to contain escape characters (\n, \t, …) and to be readable with a single input() statement.

When your program ends, it prints the list of words.  In the output, each line contains of a single word and the number of times that word occurred in the input.  For readability, the number should be the first thing on the line and the word should be second.  

For example, here are two runs of the program, showing the user’s input and the output:

Enter a line of text: This is a very long line of text with many words in it, most of them only once.

Tony and Suzie see the need for a rugged all-terrain vehicle to transport participants and supplies. They decide to purchase a used Suburban. The cost of the Suburban is $10,000. The vehicle is purchased in late June and will be put into use on July 1, 2019. Annual insurance from GEICO runs $1,550 per year. The paint is starting to fade, so they spend an extra $2,500 to repaint the vehicle, placing the Great Adventures logo on the front hood, back, and both sides. An additional $1,500 is spent on a deluxe roof rack and a trailer hitch. The painting, roof rack, and hitch are all expected to increase the future benefits of the vehicle for Great Adventures. They expect to use the Suburban for five years and then sell the vehicle for $4,000.

1. Determine the amount that should be recorded for the new vehicle.

3. Prepare a depreciation schedule using the straight-line method.

4. Record the sale of the vehicle two years later on July 1, 2021, for $8,500

Bill has just returned from a duck hunting trip. He brought home eight ducks. Bill’s friend, John, disapproves of duck hunting, and to discourage Bill from further hunting, John presented him with the following cost estimate per duck:

Camper and equipment:
Cost, $17,000; usable for eight seasons; 8 hunting trips per season $ 266
Travel expense (pickup truck):
100 miles at $0.42 per mile (gas, oil, and tires—$0.26 per mile; depreciation and insurance—$0.16 per mile) 42
Shotgun shells (two boxes per hunting trip) 20
Boat:
Cost, $2,240, usable for eight seasons; 8 hunting trips per season 35
Hunting license:
Cost, $60 for the season; 8 hunting trips per season 8
Money lost playing poker:
Loss, $22 (Bill plays poker every weekend whether he goes hunting or stays at home) 22
Bottle of whiskey:
Cost, $20 per hunting trip (used to ward off the cold) 20
Total cost $ 413
Cost per duck ($413 ÷ 8 ducks) $ 52

  

Required:

1. Assuming the duck hunting trip Bill has just completed is typical, what costs are relevant to a decision as to whether Bill should go duck hunting again this season?

2. Suppose Bill gets lucky on his next hunting trip and shoots 8 ducks using the same amount of shotgun shells he used on his previous hunting trip to bag 8 ducks. How much would it have cost him to shoot the last two ducks?
