Create a written algorithm and flowchart to determine if a material is in the solid, liquid, or gaseous state given the temperature. The algorithm should acquire the name of the material, its freezing and boiling temperatures, and the actual temperature of the material from the user.
Write an algorithm that determines the state of a material at a given temperature for user specified material, freezing point and boiling point.
Explanation of Solution
Known:
- If the temperature is below freezing point, the material is in solid state.
- If the temperature is above the boiling point, the material is in gaseous state.
Unknown:
- The type of the material.
- The freezing point of the material.
- The boiling point of the material.
Assumptions:
- Assume that the interpreter of the algorithm will input the type of material, freezing point of the material, boiling point of the material and the temperature of the material.
Algorithm:
- Input the type of material, the numerical value of freezing point of the material, boiling point of the material and the temperature of the material.
- Ask if the temperature of the material is less than the freezing point.
-
- a. If yes, state of the material is Solid.
- b. If no, ask if the temperature of the material is greater than the boiling point.
- 1. If yes, the state of the material is Gas.
- 2. If no, the state of the material is Liquid.
- Display the type of the material and the state of the material at the given temperature.
- End the process.
Rules for creating a proper linear flowchart are as follows.
- The flowchart contains START rectangle to mention the beginning of a process.
- All the actions must be mentioned within rectangles.
- Connection between the blocks must be mentioned with a one-directional arrow.
- The flowchart contains END rectangle to mention the end of a process.
Flowchart to determine the state of a material is given in Figure 1.
Conclusion:
Hence, the algorithm and the flowchart that determines the state of a material at a given temperature are created.

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. The maximum stress in this set-up was less than the yield stress for the Ti-6Al-4V…arrow_forward
