Initially I am standing at 0 (starting point).
Then after taking 2 steps back, I am now standing at -2.
Then after taking 5 steps forward, I am now standing at 3 (= -2 + 5).
Then after doubling the distance from my starting point, I am now standing at 6 (= 3 × 2).
Then after taking 2 steps back, I am now standing at 4 (= 6 - 2).
Then after moving half the distance towards the starting point, I am now standing at 2 (= 4 - (4 ÷ 2) ).
Then finally, after taking 3 steps backwards, I am now standing at -1 (= 2 - 3).
Answer:
(1) I am 1 step away from the starting point in the backward direction.
(2) I need to move 1 step forward to get back to the starting point ( since -1 + 1 = 0).
You are standing on a number line facing in the forward(positive) direction. If you take 2...
You need to guide a robot from the red dot on the left to the green dot on the right, avoiding the blue walls along the way. To do this, you must feed it a series of commands of the form "turn degrees and move units forward". Angles are measured in de with positive angles turning counterclockwise, and negative angles turning clockwise. All turns are relative to the robot's current direction wi turns. The grid marks 1 unit squares From...
You are standing a distance d (2m) directly in front of one of two identical speakers, being driven by the same signal generator, that are a distance h (5m) apart. You walk in the positive direction starting at y=0 m, along a line parallel to the line joining the two speakers. The speed of sound is 340 m/s and the frequency is 170 HZ. As you walk, how many times and where will you hear a maximum sound? PROBLEM You...
A random walk is a particular kind of probabilistic (pseudo-random) simulation that models certain statistical systems, such as Brownian motion of particles or molecules. Coin flipping is an example of a one-dimensional random walk--one dimensional because you only can go forward (when you flip heads) or backward (when you flip tails) along a straight line. Suppose you take a random walk of nsteps. How many steps away from your starting point would you expect to end up on average, if...
MATLAB code help! Function Name: chemTimer Inputs: 1. (double) The current position of the hour hand 2. (double) The current position of the minute hand 3. (double) A positive or negative number of minutes Outputs: 1. (double) The position of the hour hand after the specified time 2. (double) The position of the minute hand after the specified time Background: Oh no, you were running late to your Chem lab and completely forgot your reaction timer! It's a good thing...
BUS 1 BUS 2 LINE 1 T1 L1 T2 G1 G2 R = 0,6 pu LINE 2 L2 T3 G3 BUS 3 a) For the above network, draw positive, negative and zero sequence networks (60 marks) b) Provide the main mathematical steps that will allow you to calculate the magnitude (in ampere) of the phase to phase fault current at BUS 1. As part of your answer you should show clearly, on a diagram, how the networks of part (a)...
LSM 5 Part C. Suppose that you are walking on a straight line. You start at position X, -0, and only walk in the positive direction. Your positions afcer taking the ith step is denoted by X,. For each step, your step size, denoted by S, = X,-X,-ı , is a random variable uniformly distributed between 1 foot and 2 eet. Assume that sizes of different steps are mutually independent. 8. (10 credits) Let Xy be your position after taking...
VisualBasic programm You were asked to write a program that identifies positive and negative numbers which the user enters. Then calculate the average of negative and positive numbers separately. You need to follow the steps below; a. Ask the user to enter the number of data which she/he likes to enter. b. Declare necessary variables as ARRAYS. c. Use a For Next loop to get the data from the user d. Use a decision structure to decide whether the number...

Classes are canceled due to snow, so you take advantage of the extra time to conduct some physics experiments. You fasten a large toy rocket to the back of a sled and take the modified sled to a large, flat, snowy field. You ignite the rocket and observe that the sled accelerates from rest in the forward direction at a rate of 15.5 m/s2 for a time period of 2.90 s. After this time period, the rocket engine abruptly shuts...
