1)A circular loop of wire lies within the horizontal plane, and you are viewing it from above. You hold a magnet above the loop, with its north pole up and south pole down, and you drop the magnet. In what rotational direction will you see the induced current in the loop flow? (clockwise-counterclockwise)

2)The current going through a capacitor is called a (conduction current/displacement current)and arises from changing (electric field/magnetic field)

3) semiconductors are (diamagnetic/ferromagnetic/paramagnetic) materials

4) A circular loop of wire lies within the xy plane. It has an area of LaTeX: 1\:m^21 m 2 and an overall resistance of 4 Ohms. A uniform magnetic field runs in the positive z direction, and its magnitude increases at a rate of 2 T/s. What is the induced current?

Below is the C ++ code for a given assignment. An acre equal 43,560 sq ft. Im supposed to find the total number of acres within a tract of land that is 391,876 sq ft. the program compiles and runs just fine but I'm wondering if it would be better to use the int data type instead? I used double for more accuracy. The instructor didn't say we had to use any certain data type so I'm asking purely for practicality and for real world scenarios which would be better.

// this program calculates the number of acres in a tract of land
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
   double acre = 43560,
           land = 391876,
           total;
         
  
   //Calculate the total number of acres
  
   total = land / acre;
  
   cout<<"the total number of acres is " << total << endl;
   return 0;

Task #3 Experimenting with an array of random integers (Week 2)
Make sure that the following 3 experiments are done repeatedly by generating a new set of integers to fill the array. For this iterate 10 times and observe results for consistency.
• Make the array size reasonably large (say a thousand) and an even number.
• Choose the version of nextInt() that allows you to set a cap on the random integers generated (set it to a few thousands, but way less than the maximum integer).
• Do the following experiments:
o Count how many integers in the array are odd and even. Are the odd and even counts almost equal?
o Find the minimum, maximum, and average of the integers in the array. Keep track of the minimum and maximum of the three quantities across runs.
o Sort the array by writing an inner and an outer loop. Count the number of times you needed to swap integers.

class Counter{

  private int count = 0;

  public void inc(){

   count++;  

  }

  public int get(){

    return count;

  }

}

class Worker extends Thread{

Counter count;

  Worker(Counter count){

    this.count = count;

  }

  public void run(){

    for (int i = 0; i < 1000;i++){

      synchronized(this){

        count.inc();

      }}

  }

}

public class Test

{  

  public static void main(String args[]) throws InterruptedException

  {

    Counter c = new Counter();

    Worker w1 = new Worker(c);

    Worker w2 = new Worker(c);

    w1.start();

    w2.start();

    w1.join();

    w2.join();

    System.out.println(c.get());

  }

}

The above code should print 2000 because inc() method is synchronized. However, it is printing a different number ranging from 1000 to 2000 everytime it runs. Can you explain why? How would you fix it?

Suppose a rocket ship accelerates upwards with acceleration equal in magnitude to twice the magnitude of g (we say that the rocket ship accelerations upwards at 2g), but runs out of fuel after 100 seconds, after which point it stops accelerating upward. At this point, the rocket begins accelerating downwards with a magnitude of g. Assume that the gravitational pull of the Earth on the rocket doesn't change with altitude.

a)How high above the surface of the Earth does the rocket travel before it stops accelerating?

b) How fast is the rocket going when it stops accelerating?

c) How high does the rocket get before it begins to fall back to Earth?

d) How long after launch does the rocket strike the Earth again?

e) What is the average velocity of the rocket between when it leaves the Earth and when it strikes the Earth again?

A FRIEND FOR LIFE

The Glades Company is a small manufacturer. It has produced and marketed a number of different toys and appliances that have done very well in the marketplace. Late last year, the product designer at the company, Tom Berringer, told the president, Paula Glades, that he had invented a small, cuddly, talking bear that might have a great deal of appeal. The bear is made of fluffy brown material that simulates fur, and it has a tape inside that contains 50 messages.

The Glades Company decided to find out exactly how much market appeal the bear would have. Fifty of the bears were produced and placed in kindergartens and nurseries around town. The results were better than the firm had hoped. One of the nurseries reported: “The bear was so popular that most of the children wanted to take it home for an evening.” Another said the bear was the most popular toy in the school.

Based on these data, the company decided to manufacture and market 1,000 of the bears. At the same time, a catchy marketing slogan was formulated: “A Friend for Life.” The bear was marketed as a product a child could play with for years and years. The first batch of 1,000 bears sold out within a week. The company then scheduled another production run, this time for 25,000 bears. Last week, in the middle of the production run, a problem was uncovered. The process of making the bear fur was much more expensive than anticipated. The company is now faced with two options: It can absorb the extra cost and have the simulated fur produced, or it can use a substitute fur that will not last as long. Specifically, the original simulated fur will last for up to seven years of normal use; the less-expensive simulated fur will last for only eight months.

Some of the managers at Glades believe that most children are not interested in playing with the same toy for more than eight months; therefore, substituting the less-expensive simulated fur for the more-expensive fur should be no problem. Others believe that the company will damage its reputation if it opts for the substitute fur. “We are going to have complaints within eight months, and we are going to rue the day we agreed to a cheaper substitute,” the production manager argues. The sales manager disagrees, contending that “the market is ready for this product, and we ought to provide it.” In the middle of this crisis, the accounting department issued its cost analysis of the venture. If the company goes with the more-expensive simulated fur, it will lose $5.75 per bear. If it chooses the less-expensive simulated fur, it will make a profit of $14.98 per bear.

The final decision on the matter rests with Paula Glades. People on both sides of the issue have given her their opinion. One of the last to speak was the vice president of manufacturing, who said, “If you opt for the less-expensive fur, think of what this is going to do to your marketing campaign of ‘A Friend for Life.’ Are you going to change this slogan to ‘A Friend for Eight Months’?” But the marketing vice president urged a different course of action: “We have a fortune tied up in this bear. If you stop production now or go to the more-expensive substitute, we’ll lose our shirts. We aren’t doing anything illegal by substituting the fur. The bear looks the same. Who’s to know?”

QUESTIONS

1. Is the recommendation of the marketing vice president legal? Is it ethical? Why or why not?
2. Would it be ethical if the firm used the less-expensive simulated fur but did not change its slogan of “A Friend for Life” and did not tell the buyer about the change in the production process? Why or why not?
3. If you were advising Paula, what would you recommend?

You are evaluating two magazines in which to advertise and reach the 18-34 year-old female audience. These two magazines are Field & Stream (a hunting and fishing enthusiasts’ magazine whose readership is 75% male) and Cosmopolitan (a fashion/lifestyle magazine targeting young women in their 20s and 30s). One page in Field & Stream costs $50,000 with a circulation of 1,500,000 readers. One page in Cosmopolitan costs $150,000 with a circulation of 2,500,000 readers, 90% female under the age of 40. What is the CPM of both magazines ( Field & Stream and Cosmopolitan) and briefly discuss the efficiency and effectiveness of each media vehicle, given the target audience of 18-34 females.
