While constructing a building, an engineer need to fix
two steel beams together using a bracket as shown
in Figure 1. Using absolute coordinate system,
construct a G-code program for drilling hole number
3 only. To remove the metal chips the hole should be
done in three equal steps. During the drilling, coolant
should be on before spindle starts and stop after
spindle stops. The spindle speed set to 1750 RPM.
Drilling bit in rack number 2 and it should be 1 mm
over the work piece. Drilling feed rate is 20 mm/min.

For Questions 3 and 4: A cup of water was heated to a
temperature of 90°. It was placed in a refrigerator that had a
temperature of 11°C. The water cooled to a temperature of
17°C in 30 minutes. Let the following variables represent
the relevant quantities.
L = Temperature of the liquid
S= Temperature of the surroundings
t = Time
B = Initial temperature of the liquid (Temperature at t = 0
k = Cooling constant
3. Using the Equation Solver, find the value of k in the
equation L = (B - S)e -kt + S. Remember to set the
equation equal to zero and then enter it into the Solver.

In U.S. customary units it is calculated by: BMI = 703" %D where W is the person's weight in pounds and h is the heights in inches. Write a MATLAB program in a script file that calculates the BMI. For input the program asks the user to enter his/her weight and height. The pro- gram then calculates the BMI rounded to the nearest tenth. For output the program displays the message: "The BMI is: XX." where XX is the value of the BMI.
