Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 12ICA
Refer to the Worksheet shown, set up to calculate the displacement of a spring. Hooke's law states that the force (F, in newtons) applied to a spring is equal to the stiffness of the spring (k, in newtons per meter) times the displacement {x, in meters): F = kx.
Cell A3 contains a data validation list of springs. The stiffness (cell 83) and maximum displacement (cell C3) values are found using a VLOOKUP function linked to the table shown at the right side of the worksheet. These data are then used to determine the displacement of the spring at various mass values. A warning is issued if the displacement determined is greater than the maximum displacement for the spring. Use this information to determine the answers to the following questions.
- a. Write the expression, in Excel notation, that you would type into cell 86 to determine the displacement of the spring. Assume you will copy this expression to cells 87 to B 17.
- b. Fill in the following information in the VLOOKUP function used to determine the maximum displacement in cell C3 based on the choice of spring in cell A3.
=VLOOKUP(_(1)__,_(2)_,_(3)_,_(4)_)
- c. Fill in the following information in the IF function used to determine the warning given in cell C6, using the maximum displacement in cell C3. Assume you will copy this expression to cells C7 to C17.
=IF(_(1)_,_(2)_,_(3)_)

1. For the following concentration expressions, indicate whether they are uniform or nonuniform
and in how many dimensions (OD, 1D, 2D, or 3D), and steady or unsteady. Then for the following
control volume and origin, and table of constants, use Excel or Matlab to graph profiles that
show how concentration changes within the control volume and over time to a limit of 20 for
the following: C(x,0,0,0), C(0,y,0,0), C(0,0,z,0) and C(0,0,0,t). On each graph, show which
parameters are held constant, the CV boundaries, and the point where all four plots overlap.

2. There were 42 mangoes in each crate. 12 such crates of mangoes were delivered to a factory. 4 mangoes
were rotten and had to be thrown away. The remaining mangoes were packed into boxes of 10 mangoes
each. Write a numerical expression in MATLAB syntax to represent this situation and then find how many
boxes of mangoes were there?

The diagram above illustrates the vertical motion of a point on the tire over time. It is possible to model
the height of this point using a sinusoidal function of the form h(t)=-a sin[b(t-c)]+d.
a) Determine the length of time required for one revolution of the tire.
b) State the numerical value for each of the parameters a, b, c & d.
And write a function representing the motion of the point in the form h(t)= -a sin[b(t−c)]+d.
