What are the proper choices of the time and length units for the problem? Discuss the error generated by the program in each period of Halley's comet.

(Mechanics) The deflection at any point along the centerline of a cantilevered beam, such as the one used for a balcony (see Figure 5.15), when a load is distributed evenly along the beam is given by this formula: d=wx224EI(x2+6l24lx) d is the deflection at location x (ft). xisthedistancefromthesecuredend( ft).wistheweightplacedattheendofthebeam( lbs/ft).listhebeamlength( ft). Eisthemodulesofelasticity( lbs/f t 2 ).Iisthesecondmomentofinertia( f t 4 ). For the beam shown in Figure 5.15, the second moment of inertia is determined as follows: l=bh312 b is the beam’s base. h is the beam’s height. Using these formulas, write, compile, and run a C++ program that determines and displays a table of the deflection for a cantilevered pine beam at half-foot increments along its length, using the following data: w=200lbs/ftl=3ftE=187.2106lb/ft2b=.2fth=.3ft

As it falls, it will reach a constant or terminal velocity when the air resistance force balances the gravitational attraction force. The terminal velocity is given by V₁ = where m is the spacecraft's mass [m], g is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet, p is the atmosphere's density [kg/m³], Cp is the spacecraft's drag coefficient, and A is the spacecraft's cross-sectional area [m²]. a) Write a function named terminalVelocity which calculates the terminal velocity an object.

Draw a Crow's feet ERD using the following information.
A standard science experiment is to drop a ball and see how high it bounces. Once the “bounciness” of the ball has been determined, the ratio gives a bounciness index. For example, if a ball dropped from a height of 10 feet bounces 6 feet high, the index is 0.6 and the total distance traveled by the ball is 16 feet after one bounce. If the ball were to continue bouncing, the distance after two bounces would be 10 ft + 6 ft + 6 ft + 3.6 ft = 25.6 ft. Note that distance traveled for each successive bounce is the distance to the floor plus 0.6 of that distance as the ball comes back up. Write a program that lets the user enter the initial height of the ball and the number of times the ball is allowed to continue bouncing. Output should be the total distance traveled by the ball. Please name your function "bounce" that has three arguments (initial height, index, number of bounce) and return the total distance traveled by the ball.
