Remember the childhood game “Rock, Paper, Scissors”? It is a two-players game in which each person simultaneously chooses either rock, paper, or scissors. Rock beats scissors but loses to paper, paper beats rock but loses to scissors, and scissors beats paper but loses to rock. Your program must prompt the player 1 and player 2 to each enter a string for their choice: rock, paper, or scissors. Then appropriately reports if “Player 1 wins”, “Player 2 wins”, or “It is a tie.” Your program should work for both lower case and uppercase letters. If the user string is not rock, scissors or paper the program will print “Wrong choice”.
Sample Run: User input is in Bold.
Player 1: Choose rock, scissors, or paper:

Player 2: Choose rock, scissors, or paper:

If a sports team is maximizing their wins, is that the same as maximizing their profits? Explain at least three ways that teams seek to maximize their profits.
b. Using at least 2 teams from the following list, explain how teams can become wealthy even if they do not win all the time.
The World Cup and NBA free agency have dominated the sports headlines this month. Soccer and basketball are global sports with incredible growth prospects, thanks to their international reach. More than three billion people tune in to watch the World Cup every four years. Nike uses NBA stars like LeBron James and Kevin Durant to pitch the wares of the sports giant around the globe.
But despite the global popularity of basketball and soccer, American football is still king on the financial ledger. The NFL lands 29 teams among the 50 most valuable sports teams in the world (only the Bills, Bengals and Lions missed the cut from the NFL). Football ranks well ahead of basketball (8 teams), soccer (7 teams) and baseball (6 teams).
The NFL is still the dominant sport in the world's biggest economy. Thirty-seven percent of Americans picked football as their favorite sport to watch in the latest Gallup Poll. Football is down from it's peak of 43% a dozen years ago, but it still crushes basketball (11%), baseball (9%) and soccer (7%).
TV networks pay billions to satisfy viewers wanting NFL action. NFL teams evenly divvied up $8.2 billion, or $255 million per team, last season from shared league revenue, with TV rights deals from CBS, NBC, Fox, ESPN and DirecTV the bulk of the money. Factor in a salary cap that restricts player costs to 50% of league revenue and NFL owners are minting money with average profits of $101 million per team in the sense of earnings before interest, taxes, deprecation and amortization.

a. If a 6 cm diameter cylinder containing 2 g of an ideal gas at 25o C is fitted with a 5 kg piston with a 20 kg weight on the piston, calculate the pressure and volume of the ideal gas if the atmospheric pressure is 1 atm. If the 20 kg weight is removed, provide detailed comments without further calculations on what would happen. You may assume a molecular weight of 28 for the gas.
b. Calculate the energy required to heat a gas from 30o C to 150o C if the gas flow rate and pressure at the heater outlet are 1.5 m3 /min and 125 kPa absolute respectively. Assume the specific enthalpy change is about 4,000 J/mol for the process.

Design an electro-pneumatic circuit to control a double-acting
cylinder via a 5/2 way singlesolenoid valve. The on switch is of
detent type and when actuated, the piston will repeatedly extend
and retract until the switch is released. The length of forward
stroke and the speed of forward and return motion should be
adjustable via roller-limit switches and flow control valves
respectively.
(a) Show pneumatic and electrical circuits for indirect control of
the system described above, i.e. each switch in the circuit
indirectly controls the output components via a dedicated relay.

(c) Redesign your circuit incorporating non-contact sensing for
piston position detection using three-wire capacitive sensors.

1. What is the mass of steam in the piston-cylinder?
2. How much heat is added to the cylinder, in kJ, during the expansion? State your assumptions.
3. Assuming there are no irreversibilities during the expansion; S.GEN=0, does the entropy of the steam decrease, remain constant, or increase during the expansion? Explain your answer.
