Chapter 7, Problem 7.15CP
For the following computer problems, any appropriate software may be used. Input prompts should fully explain what is required of the user (the program should be user-friendly). The resulting output should be well labeled and self-explanatory. For spreadsheet problems, any appropriate software may be used.
7.15 Write a program that will calculate the location of the centroid for a tee shape similar to that of Problem 7.7. 
User input is to be the width and the depth of the two rectangles. (The upper element is called the flange; the lower element is called the web.)

PROBLEM:
A hemispherical open tank used for concentration of sulfuric acid (Sp. Gravity=1.25) is
filled up to the rim. If the tank gas a radius of 3 m, determine the work done in kilojoules
after pumping the tank of all acid to another tank situated on a platform 3 m above the
rim of the lower tank.
A. 3,628.35 kJ
B. 4,635.74 kJ

D. 2,860.39 kJ
Learning Goal:
A centroid is an object's geometric center. For an object of uniform composition, its centroid is also its
center of mass. Often the centroid of a complex composite body is found by, first, cutting the body into
regular shaped segments, and then by calculating the weighted average of the segments' centroids.An
object is made from a uniform piece of sheet metal. The object has dimensions of a = 1.45 ft, where a is
the diameter of the semi-circle, b = 3.24 ft, and c = 2.10 ft. A hole with diameter d = 0.500 ft is centered
at (1.13, 0.725).

Very very urgent.
Point C is the starting point of the ski and landing track and the landing track is built with a horizontal inclination of 30 degrees. Point A is the beginning of the ski jump point and is 4 m high from point C. The function of the sloping part of the jump run starting from point A is x = sqrt (h-y)
Note: Ignore air resistance and friction in all questions.
h: Runway height (height between A and B points)
Skier's weight: 34 kg
Calculate the reaction forces from the ground when the skier travels 1m horizontally after leaving point A from the standing state.
