PYTHON!!!
A standard science experiment is to drop a ball and see how high it bounces. Once the “bounciness” of the ball has been determined, the ratio gives a bounciness index.
For example, if a ball dropped from a height of 10 feet bounces 6 feet high, the index is 0.6, and the total distance traveled by the ball is 16 feet after one bounce. If the ball were to continue bouncing, the distance after two bounces would be 10 ft + 6 ft +6 ft + 3.6 ft = 25.6 ft. Note that the distance traveled for each successive bounce is the distance to the floor plus 0.6 of that distance as the ball comes back up.
Write a program that lets the user enter the initial height from which the ball is dropped, the bounciness index, and the number of times the ball is allowed to continue bouncing. Output should be the total distance traveled by the ball.
Below is an example of the program input and output:
Enter the height from which the ball is dropped:
25 Enter the bounciness index of the ball:
.5
Enter the…
Task 15
Write a Python program that takes a number and tells if it is a perfect number or not. [The input number has to be an INTEGER]
Perfect Number: An integer number is said to be a perfect number if its factors, including 1 but not the number itself, sum to the number.
Example01:
Input:
6
Output:
6 is a perfect number
Explanation:
6 have 4 divisors: 1, 2, 3, and 6.
If we add all factors except itself, 6 = 1 + 2 + 3.
Task 9
Write Python code of a program that reads an integer, and prints the integer if it is a multiple of NEITHER 2 NOR 5.
For example, 1, 3, 7, 9, 11, 13, 17, 19, 21, 23, 27, 29, 31, 33, 37, 39 ...
hint(1): use the modulus (%) operator for checking the divisibility
hint(2): You can consider the number to be an integer

- (This is for Cengage Mindtap, highly recommend using this. If not available, use devc++ version 5.11 but Cengage will be more precise sometimes.) Instructions Write a program that takes, as input, five numbers and outputs the mean (average) and standard deviation of the numbers. If the numbers are x₁, x₂, x₃, x₄, and x₅, then the mean is: x = (x₁+ x₂+ x₃+ x₄+x₅)/5 and the standard deviation is: s = √(((x₁-x)²+(x₂-x)²+(x₃-x)²+(x₄-x)²+(x₅-x)²)/5) Your program must contain at least the following functions: a function that calculates and returns the mean and a function that calculates the standard deviation. Format your output with setprecision(2) to ensure the proper number of decimals for testing!arrow_forwardTask 1: In ocean navigation, locations are measured in degrees and minutes of latitude and longitude. Thus if you’re lying off the mouth of Papeete Harbor in Tahiti, your location is 149 degrees 34.8 minutes west longitude, and 17 degrees 31.5 minutes south latitude. This is written as 149°34.8’ W, 17°31.5’ S. There are 60 minutes in a degree. (An older system also divided a minute into 60 seconds, but the modern approach is to use decimal minutes instead.) Longitude is measured from 0 to 180 degrees, east or west from Greenwich, England, to the international dateline in the Pacific. Latitude is measured from 0 to 90 degrees, north or south from the equator to the poles. Create a class angle that includes three member variables: an int for degrees, a float for minutes, and a char for the direction letter (N, S, E, or W). This class can hold either a latitude variable or a longitude variable. Write one member function to obtain an angle value (in degrees and minutes) and a direction…arrow_forwardCongrats! You work for Zillow now. Your first task is to write an algorithm that recommends apartments based on a user’s preferences. Zillow offers the following three properties for rent: Apartment A – 600 square feet, pets allowed, $1400/month Apartment B – 800 square feet, no pets, $1600/month Apartment C – 1000 square feet, pets allowed, $1800/month Write an algorithm for a program that does the following: Prompt the user for the minimum square footage they will accept, how many pets they have, and the maximum price they’d pay per month, and then calculate and output the apartments that match their preferences. If there is no apartment that matches their preferences, print out "No matches, sorry!". Make sure the inputs are valid--negative square footages, prices, and pet numbers don’t make sense!arrow_forward
- Objective: Write a Java program that gives the statistics of a die being rolled some number of times! Task: . Allow the user to enter the number of times a die is rolled. Make sure to check for valid inputs, so no negative numbers. . Use a random number generator that picks only the number 1 through 6 and keep tally on each of those. Give the statistics at the end (see sample output)arrow_forwardSummary When you borrow money to buy a house, a car, or for some other purposes, then you typically repay it by making periodic payments. Suppose that the loan amount is L, r is the interest rate per year, m is the number of payments in a year, and the loan is for t years. Suppose that i = (r / m) and r is in decimal. Then the periodic payment is (first image which R=....): You can also calculate the unpaid loan balance after making certain payments. For example, the unpaid balance after making k payments is (second image which L'=....) : where R is the periodic payment. (Note that if the payments are monthly, then m = 12.) Instructions Write a program that prompts the user to input the values of L, r, m, t, and k. The program then outputs the appropriate values. Your program must contain at least two functions, with appropriate parameters, to calculate the periodic payments and the unpaid balance after certain payments.

Step 2: Ask the user to enter the width of their room (in feet). Step 3: Calculate the area (in square feet) of the room by multiplying the length and the width of the room. For example, if a room is 20 feet wide by 24 feet long, then its area is 20 * 24 = 480 square feet Step 4: Display a menu that asks the user how much shade the room gets. The menu should have the following options: Little Shade Moderate Shade Abundant Shade Step 5: Determine the capacity of the air conditioning unit that is needed for a moderately shaded room by using the information in the table below. Room Size (sq. ft) AC capacity (BTUs/hr) Less than 250 5,500 250 to 500 10,000 501 to 1,000 17,500 Over 1,000 24,000 If the room has little shade, then the BTU capacity should be increased by 15% since the air conditioning unit must be able to produce extra…arrow_forward

They provide three types of services: mowing, fertilizing, and planting trees. The cost of mowing is $40.00 per 5000 square yards, fertilizing is $50.00 per application, and planting a tree is $45.00. Write an algorithm that prompts the user to enter the area of the lawn, the number of fertilizing applications, and the number of trees to be planted, then read in those values. The algorithm then computes and outputs the billing amount. (Assume that the user orders all three services.)arrow_forward
- Write a "Guess My Number Game" program. The program generates a random integer in a specified range, and the user (the player) has to guess the number. The program allows the use to play as many times as he/she would like; at the conclusion of each game, the program asks whether the player wants to play again. The basic algorithm is: 1. The program starts by printing instructions on the screen. 2. For every game: the program generates a new random integer in the range from MIN to MAX. Treat MIN and MAX like constants; start by initializing them to 1 and 100 ► loop to prompt the player for a guess until the player correctly guesses the integer for each guess, the program prints whether the player's guess was too low, too high, or correct at the conclusion (when the integer has been guessed): ➤ print the total number of guesses for that game print a message regarding how well the player did in that game (e.g., the player took way too long to guess the number, the player was awesome,…arrow_forwardImplement the following: (PYTHON)1) Use a loop to continuously request an integer input from the console.2) As long as the value is positive, request new values.3) Once the value is zero or negative, end the loop.4) Prompt a message and print all valid values.Example OutputEnter an integer (zero or negative to stop): 1Enter an integer (zero or negative to stop): 100Enter an integer (zero or negative to stop): 0 Invalid range.
