When the American system was being created, the office of the President was not the center and most important role (if anything was, on the federal level, it as Congress). Now, however, the POTUS occupies the center of American governance, attention (think about voting behavior), and politics. Why do you think that is? Why do you think the presidency has grown to the role in now plays in American politics?

Three particles are fixed on an x axis. Particle 1 of charge q₁ is at x = -a and particle 2 of charge q₂ is at x = +a. If their net electrostatic force on particle 3 of charge Q is to be zero, what must be the ratio q₁/q₂ when particle 3 is at (a) x = +0.754a and (b) x = +1.65a?

1. Construct a finite-state machine, using combinational logic, which reads in one bit at a time. When a nibble (4 bits) are all zeros the output is set to one else the output is zero. The machine continues to read in bits and the output remains a one if zeros are read in. If it reads a one the output is a zero.
   1. What are the machine states?
   2. What are the inputs?
   3. What are the outputs?
   4. Draw state table.
   5. Draw the state diagram.
   6. Define the circuit for the next state and the output with the Boolean equations.
   7. Explain if you built a Mealy or Moore machine.

Sort the contents of the two files in ascending order and combine them into one new file (words.txt).
When comparing string order, you must use the compareTo method and make an exception.The source code below is a code that only combines files. Use the comparedTo method to sort the contents of the two files in ascending order.(ex. if(str1.compareTo(str2)<0) {})

A new implementation of Merge Sort uses a cutoff variable to use insertion sort for small number of items to be merged (Merging single elements is costly).

1. Give the pseudo code for the merge sort algorithm with a cutoff variable set to 4.

2. Show the trace for top-down merge sort using the following array of characters with a cutoff variable set to 4.

Program a math quiz on Python

Specifications:

- The program should ask the user a question and allow the student to enter the answer. If the answer is correct, a message of congratulations should be displayed. If the answer is incorrect, a message showing the correct answer should be displayed.

- the program should use three functions, one function to generate addition questions, one for subtraction questions, and one for multiplication questions.

- the program should store the questions and answers in a dictionary or list.

- the program should keep a count of the number of correct and incorrect responses.

The controller of Dash Shoes Inc. instructs you to prepare a monthly cash budget for the next three months. You are presented with the following budget information:

The company expects to sell about 12% of its merchandise for cash.

The budget director of Gourmet Grill Company requests estimates of sales, production, and other operating data from the various administrative units every month. Selected information concerning sales and production for July is summarized as follows:

a. Estimated sales for July by sales territory:

b. Estimated inventories at July 1:

c. Desired inventories at July 31:

d. Direct materials used in production:

e. Anticipated purchase price for direct materials:

f. Direct labor requirements:

Required:

what are the Descriptive Assumptions in the Death Penalty Article? Descriptive assumptions are also unstated.

They are the glue that binds the reasons to the conclusions. The descriptive assumption is the main underlying assumption the article. What must we assume about individuals convicted of murder? Dont over think this. If you would support the death penalty with the intensity of the author, what would you believe in your heart of hearts?

In php:

• This is a static website.
• There are missing parts that students must fill in in order to have a working website.
• Students should follow the comments in the php file to complete this part.

After completed, the website should hide all messages before the user click submit button OR show either the error message or success message if the user click submit button.

//code

<?php

   if(isset($_GET['submit'])){

//sanitize the input
      
/* Check the error from the input:
if input from user is empty
-> get an error string variable
if input is not empty
-> use preg_match() to match the pattern
$pattern = "/^[1-9][0-9]{2}(\.|\-)[0-9]{3}(\.|\-)[0-9]{4}$/";
-> if it's a matched, get a success string variable
