<span>I agree with one small part, but disagree with the rest. A computer as hardware is a machine that can do what software tells it to. If the software is stored directly on the hardware and relatively immutable, they cal it firmware. If it is easily changed and updated they just call it software. If you remove that completely, yes, the hardware is difficult to use for more than door stops and paper weights. However, you do not need hardware to use software. Software is a concept. Software development can be abstracted from the hardware. Algorithmic thinking can be used for theory or applied to other topics that do not use computers. </span>

Suppose Dave drops a watermelon off a high bridge and lets it fall until it hits the water. If we neglect air resistance, then t
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

// driver function

int main()

{

   // variables

  const double g = 9.8;

int sec;

double height;

int    t  = 0;    

double d = 0;    

bool   flag = false;  

// ask to enter time

cout << "Please enter the time of fall(in seconds):";

// read time

cin >> sec;

//ask to enter height

cout << "Please enter the height (in meters):";

//read height

cin >> height;

cout << '\n'

     << "Time(seconds)   Distance(meters)\n"

        "********************************\n";

// calculate height after each seconds

while ( t <= sec) {

cout << setw(23) << left << t

      << setw(24) << left << d << '\n';

// if input height is less

 if ( d > height ) {

  flag = true;

 }

// increament the time

 t += 1;

// find distance

 d = 0.5 * g * (t) * (t);

}

cout << '\n';

// if input height is less then print the Warning

if ( flag ) {

 cout << "Warning - Bad Data: The distance fallen exceeds the height"

         " of the bridge.\n";

}

return 0;

}

Explanation:

Read the time in seconds from user and assign it to "sec" then read height and  assign it to "height".After this find the distance after each second.If the input height is less than the distance at any second, it will print a Warning message. otherwise it will print the distance after each second.

Output:

Please enter the time of fall(in seconds):11                                                                              

Please enter the height (in meters):1111

Write a C# program named ProjectedRaises that includes a named constant representing next year’s anticipated 4 percent raise for
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

using System;

class ProjectedRaises {

 static void Main() {

     const float raise = 0.04f;

     double salary1 = 0.0f,salary2 = 0.0f,salary3 = 0.0f;

Console.WriteLine("Current salary for each employee: ");

     salary1 = Single.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

     salary2 = Single.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

     salary3 = Single.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

     salary1 = salary1 + raise * salary1;

     salary2 = salary2 + raise * salary2;

     salary3 = salary3 + raise * salary3;

     Console.WriteLine("Next year salary for the employees are: ");

     Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(salary1));

     Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(salary2));

     Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(salary3));

}

}

Explanation:

This declares and initializes variable raise as a float constant

     const float raise = 0.04f;

This declares the salary of each employee as double

     double salary1 = 0.0f,salary2 = 0.0f,salary3 = 0.0f;

This prompts the user for the salaries of the employee

Console.WriteLine("Current salary for each employee: ");

The next three lines get the salary of the employees

<em>      salary1 = Single.Parse(Console.ReadLine());</em>

<em>      salary2 = Single.Parse(Console.ReadLine()); </em>

<em>      salary3 = Single.Parse(Console.ReadLine()); </em>

The next three lines calculate the new salaries of the employees

<em>      salary1 = salary1 + raise * salary1;</em>

<em>      salary2 = salary2 + raise * salary2;</em>

<em>      salary3 = salary3 + raise * salary3;</em>

This prints the header

     Console.WriteLine("Next year salary for the employees are: ");

The next three lines print the new salaries of the employees

     Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(salary1));

     Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(salary2));

     Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(salary3));

In __________ mode, the data within an ip packet is encrypted, but the header information is not.
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

Transport mode

Explanation:

The host-to-host transport mode of internet protocol security (IPsec) is mostly used between two host devices or between a user and a server. When you go online and Google something, what you have done is send a packet request to a server. The IPsec’s transport mode offers secure protection to parts of this IP packet. The packet consists of the original IP header and an IP payload (TCP header and data). In transport mode, only the IP payload is encrypted. The original IP header is not.

Given the macro definition and global declarations shown in the image below, provide answers to the following questions:
galben [10]

Answer:

A. 243

B. True

C. 0

Explanation:

Macro instruction is a line of coding used in computer programming. The line coding results in one or more coding in computer program and sets variable for using other statements. Macros allows to reuse code. Macro has two parts beginning and end. After the execution of statement of quiz4 x, 4 the macro x will contain 243. When the macro is invoked the statement will result in an error. When the macro codes are executed the edx will contain 0. Edx serve as a macro assembler.

Zoom Vacuum, a family-owned manufacturer of high-end vacuums, has grown exponentially over the last few years. However, the comp
Sati [7]

Answer:

The best advice for Zoom Vacuum is  to start with a Transaction Processing System(TPS). This system will process all the day to day transactions of the system. It is like a real time system where users engage with the TPS and generate, retrieve and update the data. it would be very helpful in lowering the cost of production and at the same time manufacture and produce standard quality products.

Although, TPS alone would not be sufficient enough. so Management Information System(MIS) would be needed, that can get the data from the TPS and process it to get vital information.

This MIS will bring about information regarding the sales and inventory data about the current and well as previous years.

With the combination of TPS as well as MIS is a minimum requirement for a Zoom Vacuum to become successful in the market.

Explanation:

Solution

When we look at the description of the Zoom Vacuum manufacturing company closely, we see that the business is currently a small scale business which is trying to become a small to mid scale business. This claim is supported by the fact that there is only one manufacturing plant and three warehouses. And here, we also need to have the knowledge of the fact that small business major aim is to keep the cost low and satisfy the customers by making good products. So we need to suggest what information system is best suited for small scale business enterprises.

The best recommendation would be to start with a Transaction Processing System(TPS). This system will process all the day to day transactions of the system. It is like a real time system where users interact with the TPS and generate, retrieve and modify the data. This TPS would be very helpful in lowering the cost of production and at the same time manufacture and produce standard quality products . Also TPS can help in communicating with other vendors.

But TPS along would not be sufficient. Also Management Information System(MIS) would be required that can get the data from the TPS and process it to get vital information. This MIS will help in generating information regarding the sales and inventory data about the current and well as previous years. Also MIS can create many types of graphical reports which help in tactical planning of the enterprise.

So a combination of TPS as well as MIS is a minimum requirement for a Zoom Vacuum to become successful in the market.
