Textbook Question
Chapter 2.4, Problem 24SC
For a particular car, repair and maintenance costs in year 1 are estimated at $100; in year 10, at $1,500. Assuming that the repair cost increases by the same amount every year, develop pseudocode to compute the repair cost in year 3 and then generalize to year n.

A rocket is launched vertically and at t-0, the rocket's engine shuts down. At that time, the rocket
has reached an altitude of ho- 500 m and is rising at a velocity of t125 m/s. Gravity then takes
over. The height of the rocket as a function of time is:
h(t)- ho+vot-gt², t20
where g = 9.81 m/s². The time t=0 marks the time the engine shuts off. After this time, the rocket
continues to rise and reaches a maximum height of himax meters at time t-tmax. Then, it begins to
drop and reaches the ground at time t = tg.
a. Create a vector for times from 0 to 30 seconds using an increment of 2 s.
b. Use a for loop to compute h(t) for the time vector created in Part (a).
e. Create a plot of the height versus time for the vectors defined in Part (a) and (b). Mark the z
and y axes of the plot using appropriate labels.
d. Noting that the rocket reaches a maximum height, Amax, when the height function, h(t), attains
a maxima, compute the time at which this occurs, tmax, and the maximum…
The great circle distance is the distance betweentwo points on the surface of a sphere. Let (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) be the geographicallatitude and longitude of two points. The great circle distance between the twopoints can be computed using the following formula:d = radius X arccos(sin (x1) X sin(x2) + cos(x1) X cos(x2) X cos(y1 - y2))Write a program that prompts the user to enter the latitude and longitude of twopoints on the earth in degrees and displays its great circle distance. The averageradius of the earth is 6,371.01 km. Note you need to convert the degrees into radiansusing the Math.toRadians method since the Java trigonometric methods useradians. The latitude and longitude degrees in the formula are for north and west.Use negative to indicate south and east degrees. Here is a sample run:
Enter point 1 (latitude and longitude) in degrees: 39.55 −116.25 ↵EnterEnter point 2 (latitude and longitude) in degrees: 41.5 87.37 ↵EnterThe distance between the two points is…
