Basic Unix Commands

Objective:
The objective of this lab is to work with files of UNIX file system.

Procedure:
1. OpenyourUnixshellandtrythesecommands:

Ø Create a new file and add some text in it vcat > filename

  • Ø View a file
    vcat /etc/passwd vmore /etc/passwd vmore filename

  • Ø Copy file, making file2 vcp file1 file2

  • Ø Move/rename file1 as file2 vmv file1 file2

  • Ø Delete file1 as file2 vrm file

//Deletefile //Double-checkfirst

vrm -i file
Ø Counts the lines, words, characters in file

vwc file
Ø Search file for a string

v Grep lubuntu /etc/passwd v grep 'else' /etc/profile
v grep ^united ~/myFile

// List lines containing ‘lubuntu’ in /etc/passwd

//Lines containing ‘else‘ in /etc/profile

//Lines starting with ‘united’ in ~/myFile

Problem 5. The aquifer source water used by the town of Pandarwin, IL contains 32 mg/L Fe2+ and 97 µg/L arsenic, predominantly in the form of As(III). To meet the new MCL of 10 µg/L the local water utility is considering several strategies. One strategy involves adding hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to the water. Arsenic removal occurs indirectly as a byproduct of the reaction between Fe2+ and H2O2. When H2O2 reacts with Fe2+, hydroxyl radical intermediates (•OH) are produced which can rapidly oxidize As(III) to As(V). The As(V) can then be removed by coprecipitation with and adsorption onto Fe(OH)3(s) precipitates during sand filtration. The source water is well buffered at pH 8.0 by dissolved carbonate species.

(a) Write the balanced redox reaction between Fe2+ and H2O2. Fe2+ is converted to Fe(OH)3(s) and H2O2 is converted to H2O.

(b) The treatment plant flow rate is 107 L/day. If we assume that the reaction from part (a) goes to completion as written, calculate the mass of H2O2 that will be required each day to consume all the dissolved Fe2+ in the source water entering the plant.

(c) If we assume that each H2O2 molecule generates a single ⋅OH intermediate when it reacts with Fe2+, estimate the fraction of ⋅OH intermediates that will be used to convert As(III) to As(V) in the source water. Assume that each As(III) molecule reacts with only a single ⋅OH intermediate

The program (​ stack-ptr.c​ ) implements stack using a linked list, however, it contains a race condition and is not appropriate for a concurrent environment. Using Pthreads mutex locks, fix the race condition. For reference, see Section 7.3.1 of SGG book.(Section 7.3.1 is about mutex and semaphores it does explain how to implement I'm just having a hard time finding the race condition within the code)

Problem 1a: Velocity Selector: Show that with the right ratio of electric to magnetic field strength a particle of velocity v will proceed through both fields in a straight line at constant speed (hint: you will need an equation containing v. Also: what does the straight line at constant speed give you?). Assume that the angle of the velocity vector relative to the magnetic field vector is 90 degrees.

b: Show mathematically that the charge magnitude and sign do not matter.

c: Draw and label the electric field vector, the electric force vector, the magnetic field vector, the velocity vector and the magnetic force vector. Hint: start with the two force vectors. They have to add to zero. Then use the vector nature of the Eq = F(E) equation and the right hand rule to get the other vectors.) Assume that the particle is negatively charged. Use into and out of the page vector notation where necessary.

d. Explain in terms of what happens with the force vectors when the charge sign changes to allow a particle of either charge sign pass through the velocity selector at constant velocity v. In other words, explain physically why the particle charge sign makes no difference.

e. Explain in terms of what happens with the force vectors when the charge magnitude changes. In other words, explain physically why the charge magnitude makes no difference in the velocity selector.

n Jacobson v. Massachusetts (1905), the United States Supreme Court upheld the right of states to enact compulsory vaccination laws—one of the most challenging constitutional dimensions of public health. It also provided the terms for what would eventually become a core question of public health ethics.

This case has become the precedent for many cases that have challenged vaccination laws. Both majority and dissenting opinions in numerous decisions have cited this case in reference to states’ authority to constrain individual behavior. These cases have involved issues ranging from fluoridation of municipal water supplies, to abortion, to the right to die. In Buck v. Bell (1927), the Supreme Court usedJacobson v. Massachusetts (1905) to uphold a forced-sterilization law using the reasoning that society must be protected from the burdens imposed by the offspring of “imbeciles.” Despite the troubling uses to which this decision has been put, public health law texts continue to cite the case as an example of the ways that public health practices must resolve the tensions between individual rights and the collective well-being.

Based on these Supreme Court decisions, respond to the following:

  • Do you believe health departments should be able to enter your house without a warrant from a judge?
  • Should health departments be able to isolate or quarantine you without a trial? Why or why not?
