Problem:
A small company needs an interactive program to compute an employee’s paycheck. The payroll clerk will initially input the data, and given the input data, an employee's wage for the week should be displayed on the screen for the payroll check.
The data for the employee includes the employee's hourly pay rate and the number of hours worked that week. Wage is equal to the employee's pay rate times the number of hours worked (up to 40 hours). If the employee worked more than 40 hours, wage is equal to the employee's pay rate times 40 hours plus 1½ times the employee's pay rate times the number of hours worked above 40.
Instructions:
Match the action at the left-side with the correct step number at the right-side (the attached picture). Note that it may be possible to group more than one related actions in the same logical step / process without altering the essence of the algorithm.
In the program flow, input and checking of hourly pay rate should come before that of the number…
Given an airplane’s acceleration a and take-off speed v, you can compute the minimum runway length needed for an airplane to take off using the following formula:
length = v2/2a
Write a program that prompts the user to enter v in meters/second (m/s) and the acceleration a in meters/second squared and displays the minimum runway length.
Microwaves / Radio Waves
If a scientist knows the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave she can determine what type of
radiation it is. Write a program that asks for the wavelength in meters of an electromagnetic
wave and then displays what that wave is according to the following chart. (For example, a
wave with a wavelength of 1E-10 meters would be an X-ray.)
