Chapter 18, Problem 22RQ
Write a MATLAB program that will allow the student to select the grade earned in a course from a menu (with the options of earning an A, B, C, D, or F) that will display the numerical range for the selected grade. The output of the program displayed on the screen should be formatted as shown in the sample output. In your program, you must use a switch statement instead of an if-else if statement. Use the standard 10-point grading scale shown in the previous problem.

Hi, I need help with the first part of the problem below because I'm very confused about how P1 and P2 should be calculated. If you look at my notes to solve the problem there is already a formula in place as I always thought the Patm should also be multiplied by the Area in the numerator, but it's not if I look at this specific tutorial solution given by my course but it's not explained why. I have done a while ago a very similar problem with using that formula in my notes and it gave me the right results, but it's not working for this one. Could you please help me understand why as I have a test coming soon?

Scenario
You are assigned a role as a mechanical engineer for a vehicle design manufacturing company. Your
department has a software to perform numerical differentiation and integration. To be able to verify the
results of using the software and validate these results, your department manager has asked you to
analytically perform some tasks to validate the results generated by the software.
Q: is the last two digits of your student Id number. If your number is (20110092) then Q=92.
P: is the last digit of your student Id Number. If your number is (20110092) then P=2,
If that digit equals zero then use P=1. Example: If your number is (20110040) then P=1.

For Questions 3 and 4: A cup of water was heated to a
temperature of 90°. It was placed in a refrigerator that had a
temperature of 11°C. The water cooled to a temperature of
17°C in 30 minutes. Let the following variables represent
the relevant quantities.
L = Temperature of the liquid
S= Temperature of the surroundings
t = Time
B = Initial temperature of the liquid (Temperature at t = 0
k = Cooling constant
3. Using the Equation Solver, find the value of k in the
equation L = (B - S)e -kt + S. Remember to set the
equation equal to zero and then enter it into the Solver.

- You are a biomedical engineer working for a small orthopaedic firm that fabricates rectangular shaped fracture fixation plates from titanium alloy (model = "Ti Fix-It") materials. A recent clinical report documents some problems with the plates implanted into fractured limbs. Specifically, some plates have become permanently bent while patients are in rehab and doing partial weight bearing activities. Your boss asks you to review the technical report that was generated by the previous test engineer (whose job you now have!) and used to verify the design. The brief report states the following... "Ti Fix-It plates were manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V (grade 5) and machined into solid 150 mm long beams with a 4 mm thick and 15 mm wide cross section. Each Ti Fix-It plate was loaded in equilibrium in a 4-point bending test (set-up configuration is provided in drawing below), with an applied load of 1000N.

- please help solve A-F. thank you You are an engineer working on a project and your prototype has failed prematurely. You question whether or not a key component of the prototype was manufactured with the correct material. There are two way to check for the material properties. The first way is to have a material certification done to confirm the exact material composition. This will take some time. The second method to confirm the material properties is to make an ASTM test sample and test for the material properties. This tensile test was completed on a test sample with an initial diameter of .501” and an initial length of 2”. The Load-Deflection data for this tensile test is below. Use this data to answer the first set of questions on the Final Exam in eLearning. A. Determine the Ultimate Tensile Strength B. Determine the 0.2% Offset Yield Strength C.
