4. On a roulette wheel, the pockets are numbered from 0 to 36. The colours of the pockets are as follows:
• Pocket 0 is green.
• For pockets 1 through 10, the odd-numbered pockets are red and the even-numbered pockets are black.
• For pockets 11 through 18, the odd-numbered pockets are black and the even-numbered pockets are red.
• For pockets 19 through 28, the odd-numbered pockets are red and the even-numbered pockets are black.
• For pockets 29 through 36, the odd-numbered pockets are black and the even-numbered pockets are red.
Write a function, pocket_colour that takes an integer as parameter and returns the colour corresponds to the pocket number.
"The function should return the string "Error" if the user enters a number that is outside the range of 0 through 36.
Write a testing program named t04.py that tests your function by asking the user to enter a pocket number and displays whether the pocket is green, red, or black.
A sample run:
Enter a pocket number: 0
The selected pocket is green.

What is a mixed spinel structure?
Explain with examples.
To do this, first of all, if there is an expression in the summer,
examine both the normal and inverse spinel state and discuss the
mixed state.

Present an O(n) algorithm that sorts n positive integer numbers a1, a2, . . . , an which are known to be bounded by n 2 (so ai ≤ n 2 , for every i = 1, . . . , n. Use the idea of Radix Sort (discussed in class and presented in Section 8.3 in the textbook). Illustrate your algorithm by showing on paper similar to Fig. 8.3, page 198 in the textbook (make sure you indicate clearly the columns) how the algorithm sorts the following sequence of 12 positive integers: 45, 98, 3, 82, 132, 71, 72, 143, 91, 28, 7, 45. In this example n = 12, because there are 12 positive numbers in the sequence bounded by 144 = 12^2 .
Note that in order to obtain O(n) you have to adapt the Radix Sort algorithm (explain what are the “digits”, how can the “digits” of each number be calculated, and so on. Note that you cannot use the base 10 representation, because n^2 requires log10 n^2 digits, which is obviously not constant and therefore you would not obtain an O(n)-time algorithm.).

Gender and College Major
Does gender play a role in what students decide to study in
college? Although the gender gap has closed dramatically in recent
years it would be interesting to see how current college age
students reflect differences, or not, in their choice of college
major. It is sometimes thought that the more technical areas of
study are the domain of the male students. Let’s just see if there
is any difference.
Below is a table of values showing the enrollment by gender in four
of the popular major areas of study offered at a prestigious
university.

It is difficult to analyze the data in raw form as displayed in the
table. We must analyze further before attempting to answer the
ultimate question. Is there any difference between what males
and females decide to pursue as their college major?
There are a variety of ways to analyze these numbers:
numerically, graphically, and through use of a formula. You will
explore all three as you complete this task.
Answer the following questions using what you know about
categorical data calculations and percents. Give complete answers
with justifications. It is not acceptable to simply state a
number.
I: Numerical Comparisons:
1 point
How would you describe the SHAPE of the table? Think Matrix!
1 point
How would you edit the table to be more useful? What is missing in
order to convert raw counts to percents? Explain.
1 point
Among male students, what percent are majoring in engineering
subjects?
1 point
Among education majors, what percent are males?
1 point
What percent of students are majoring in science?
2 points
What are the marginal distributions by gender?
5 points
Do you think that gender and choice of major are related or
NOT?
Give statistical evidence to support your claim.
II. Graphical Comparisons
4 points
One way to display categorical data is through the use of pie
charts. This problem requires TWO pie charts, one for each gender.
Create and comment on those gender pie charts. What features are
evident in the graphs?
III. Formula Method:
4 points
Given the formula for EXPECTED counts in any cell to be
Expected frequency = (row total)(column total)/
TOTAL of all
Pick any cell and use your findings to either confirm or reject
your previous statement. Explain.

Post I is your initial conclusion based on the data obtained in your experiment. It should be written in complete sentences.
*Upload a picture of your experimental setup. The picture must include a piece of paper with your name and the date. (Instructions on how to do this is shown on the Lab Discussions page.) Not having the correct pictures will result in a zero grade.
*Post the Force-Mass graph from the Gravity Force Lab.
*Describe the relationship between mass and the
force of gravity. Specifically, how does YOUR GRAPH support your
description? NOTE: Be very careful about bringing the acceleration
due to gravity into your discussion as your data is being taken on
objects that are not accelerating!
*Write an equation for the line on the graph.
Explain what this equation means. What is the physical meaning of
the slope? What are the labels? What is significant about the
y-intercept? Don't forget to change the "x" and "y"
variables and to label your slope!
*Explain (using your equation) how you could determine the force of
gravity acting on an object.

a. Consider a capacitor being charged by a battery in a simple RC circuit. After a switch is thrown to charge the capacitor, when is the battery delivering the most power? It is when immediately after the switch is thrown. Not when the capacitor is fully charged or half charged. Why? Please explain in detail. b. After a switch is thrown to charge the capacitor, the capacitance is constant regardless of if it is fully or half charged or if it is immediately when the switch is thrown. Why? Please explain in detail. After a switch is thrown to charge the capacitor, when is the electric field greatest in the capacitor gap? Once the capacitor is fully charged. Why?

Perfect Pizza is a pizza delivery and pick up shop. They are hiring you to create a database designed to track their customers, employees, products, and orders. They want to use the customer’s telephone number to identify the customer. They also are interested in an order detail table to store the price charged. They restrict delivery to zip codes: 29572, 29575, 29577, 29578, 29579, and 29588. They want the city and state auto filled but want the option to enter other cities and states due to pick up orders. For Milestone 2: 1) Using the entities and attributes you created in Milestone 1, create an Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) for Perfect Pizza a. Be sure to indicate the Primary Key in Bold b. Be sure to indicate the Foreign Key in Italics 2) For each Entity: a. List the Attributes with the Data Type, Field Size, and Format if needed you plan to use. This should be neatly done in a separate table for each entity
