1. Two capacitors (C₁ = 5.8 uF, C₂ = 14.3 uF) are charged individually to (V₁ = 19.5 V, V₂ = 6.9 V). The two capacitors are then connected together in parallel with the positive plates together and the negative plates together.
   Calculate the final potential difference across the plates of the capacitors once they are connected.

B. Calculate the amount of charge (absolute value) that flows from one capacitor to the other when the capacitors are connected together.

C. By how much (absolute value) is the total stored energy reduced when the two capacitors are connected?

Soenen Inc. had the following data for last year (in millions). The new CFO believes that the company could improve its working capital management sufficiently to bring its net working capital and cash conversion cycle up to the benchmark companies' level without affecting either sales or the costs of goods sold. Soenen finances its net working capital with a bank loan at an 8% annual interest rate, and it uses a 365-day year. If these changes had been made, by how much would the firm's pre-tax income have increased?

(I am a beginner in programming, can you give me answers that I can understand? I got some answers which I think are for high level. Thank you)

Q1.   Program Description: The program should:

Ask a user to enter some digit (integer) between 1 and 9

Multiply it by 9

Write the output to the screen

Multiply that new number by 12345679 (note the absence of the number 8)

Write that output to the screen.

As shown below, the program should print out the entire multiplication as though you had done it by hand.

Presents the output of two different input other than 5 in the Word doc.

-------------------Sample Screen Output:----------------------

Enter a number from 1 to 9: 5

5

X 9

----------------

45

X          12345679

---------------------

555555555   (ßTo look like this, the last number must be an int.)

Note: Your alignment does not need to be perfect, but should roughly approximate what you see above.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Q2. Program Description: Write a program that prompts the reader for two integers and then prints:

The sum

The difference (This should be number1 minus number2.)

The product

The average (This should be a double number. with decimal point)

Presents the output of two different input sets in the Word doc.

--------------Sample Screen Output:------------------

Enter number 1:   13

Enter number 2:   20

Original numbers are 13 and 20.

Sum =             33

Difference =      -7

Product =         260

Average =         16.5

In the MSUGRA breaking scenario, the stop particle typically appears at energies reachable at the LHC. Other sfermions, notably the partners of up, down, strange and charm are assumed to be degenerate in mass, and also heavier than the stop. Something similar holds for the stau.

Why is the third generation different in MSUGRA (not degenerate as the first two), and why is the mass hierarchy inverted wrt. the Standard Model sector (3rd generation sparticles lighter)?

(I guess these features are not neccessarily specific to MSUGRA, but might apply to more general models as well.)

The following table consists of one student athlete's time (in minutes) to swim 2000 yards and the student's heart rate (beats per minute) after swimming on a random sample of 10 days. Swim Time Heart Rate 34.13 144 35.74 152 34.73 124 34.03 140 34.14 152 35.73 146 36.16 128 35.56 136 35.39 144 35.58 148 Which point from the data has the largest residual? (x, y) = 35.58,148 Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. Explain what the residual means in context. Is this point an outlier? An influential point? Explain. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) The residual means that when the swim time is Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. , the observed heart rate is about Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. beats less than the predicted rate. When this point is removed, it has a Correct: Your answer is correct. effect on the regression line, so it Correct: Your answer is correct. influential. The point Correct: Your answer is correct. an outlier, because the residual is Correct: Your answer is correct. twice the standard deviation.

I'm working on a python programming problem where I have to write a program that plays rock paper scissors.

our program will allow a human user to play Rock, Paper, Scissors with the computer. Each round of the game will have the following structure:

• The program will choose a weapon (Rock, Paper, Scissors), but its choice will not be displayed until later so the user doesn’t see it.
• The program will announce the beginning of the round and ask the user for his/her weapon choice
• The two weapons will be compared to determine the winner (or a tie) and the results will be displayed by the program
• The next round will begin, and the game will continue until the user chooses to quit
• The computer will keep score and print the score when the game ends

The computer should select the weapon most likely to beat the user, based on the user’s previous choice of weapons. For instance, if the user has selected Paper 3 times but Rock and Scissors only 1 time each, the computer should choose Scissors as the weapon most likely to beat Paper, which is the user’s most frequent choice so far. To accomplish this, your program must keep track of how often the user chooses each weapon. Note that you do not need to remember the order in which the weapons were used. Instead, you simply need to keep a count of how many times the user has selected each weapon (Rock, Paper or Scissors). Your program should then use this playing history (the count of how often each weapon has been selected by the user) to determine if the user currently has a preferred weapon; if so, the computer should select the weapon most likely to beat the user’s preferred weapon. During rounds when the user does not have a single preferred weapon, the computer may select any weapon. For instance, if the user has selected Rock and Paper 3 times each and Scissors only 1 time, or if the user has selected each of the weapons an equal number of times, then there is no single weapon that has been used most frequently by the user; in this case the computer may select any of the weapons.

At the beginning of the game, the user should be prompted for his/her input. The valid choices for input are:

• R or r (Rock)
• P or p (Paper)
• S or s (Scissors)
• Q or q (Quit)

At the beginning of each round your program should ask the user for an input. If the user inputs something other than r, R, p, P, s, S, q or Q, the program should detect the invalid entry and ask the user to make another choice.

Your program should remember the game history (whether the user wins, the computer wins, or the round is tied).

At the end of the game (when the user chooses ‘q’ or ‘Q’), your program should display the following:

• The number of rounds the computer has won
• The number of rounds the user has won
• The number of rounds that ended in a tie
• The number of times the user selected each weapon (Rock, Paper, Scissors)
