Chapter 4, Problem 33PS
Program Plan Intro
To write the code that provides an opportunity to the user to enter the measurement in inches and convert it into centimetres.
Write a program in C that contains a user-defined function, which is used to convert the measurement entered by the user in inches to centimetres.
Following are the steps that used to implement the program.
Define a user-defined function named InchestoCentimeters.
In the main method, declare a variable for reading the value entered by the user.
Make a call to the user-defined method by passing the value as an argument.
Multiply the value entered by the user by 2.54 to convert it into centimetres.
Show the result as the output.

Airline companies apply baggage restrictions for their passengers. An
airline company has decided to apply a 10kg limitation for
passengers' hand luggage and 20kg for their normal baggage. When
passengers arrive, they enter their hand and normal luggage weight
from the keyboard. If passengers exceed their normal baggage
allowance of 10 dollars per gram, they pay 12 dollars per kg.
Accordingly, write the program that calculates the baggage price of
the airline they will go to according to the baggage values entered by
the arriving passenger and keeps this from closing the program for
each passenger. Note: If hand and normal baggage allowances are
stretched below the maximum value, the payment amount will be
considered not negative. An example printout is given on the right.

- Modify the program so that it does the following: Performs a function that gets the area of a rectangle. The function must receive two parameters (decimal numbers) that represent the base and height of the rectangle and must return the calculated value (decimal number). Perform a second function that obtains the total area of a rectangular prism with a rectangular base. The total area of such a prism is equal to the sum of the areas of each of its faces. It uses calls to the previous function for this calculation. Call this last function in the main with user data. Execution example Give me the base: 21.3 Give me the height: 10 Give me the depth: 2.0 The total area of the prism is: 551.2arrow_forwardUsing the starter code below, write a program that asks a user for two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), then computes the area of the circle for which (x1, y1) is the center and (x2, y2) is on the circle's perimeter. The program should define and use 3 functions: distance(x1, y1, x2, y2): computes and returns the distance between two points • area(r): computes and returns the area of a circle with radius r • main(): asks user for input, calls the other functions, and prints the answer. The input and output of the program should look similar to this: X for center point: 0 Y for center point: 0 X for perimeter point: 1 Y for perimeter point: 1 Area of circle centered at (0.0, 0.0) with radius 1.414213 is 6.283185. Hint 1: Area of a circle = n? Hint2: Distance between 2 points = sqrt(x2-X12 + (Y2 - Y1)²) Starter code: import math def distance(x1, y1, x2, y2): #Add code to compute and return distance between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) def area(r): #Add code to compute and return area of circle…arrow_forwardpython Write a program that does temperature converter", "- The user will enter if he wants the result in Celsius or in Fahrenheit.

- A prime number is a number that is only evenly divisible by itself and 1. For example, the number 5 is prime because it can only be evenly divided by 1 and 5. The number 6, how‐ ever, is not prime because it can be divided evenly by 1, 2, 3, and 6. (Python program)Write a Boolean function named is_prime which takes an integer as an argument and returns true if the argument is a prime number, or false otherwise. Use the function in a program that prompts the user to enter a number then displays a message indicating whether the number is primearrow_forwardGiven 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 / 2 * a Write a program that prompts the user to enter v in meters/second (m/s) and the acceleration a in meters/second squared ( m/s2 ) , then displays the minimum runway length needed to take off.

- A "jiffy" is the scientific name for 1/100th of a second. Define a function named jiffies_to_seconds that takes the number of "jiffies" as a parameter, and returns the number of seconds. Then, write a main program that reads the number of jiffies (float) as an input, calls function jiffies_to_seconds() with the input as argument, and outputs the number of seconds. Output each floating-point value with three digits after the decimal point, which can be achieved as follows:print(f'{your_value:.3f}') Ex: If the input is: 15.25 the output is: 0.152 The program must define and call the following function: def jiffies_to_seconds(user_jiffies) MY CODE: def jiffies_to_seconds(user_seconds): jiffies = user_seconds*100 return jiffies #main of programif __name__ == '__main__': user_seconds = float(input()) jiffies = jiffies_to_seconds (user_seconds) print(f'{user_seconds:.3f}') ERROR: Not understanding the correct function here.

The functions return a real number: (a) Function Celsius returns the Celsius equivalent of a Fahrenheit temperature (Hint: 0 Celsius is equal to 32 Fahrenheit and 100 Celsius is equal to 212 Fahrenheit). (b) Function Fahrenheit returns the Fahrenheit equivalent of a Celsius temperature. Use these functions to write a program that prints charts showing the Fahrenheit equivalent of all Celsius temperatures between 0 and 100 degrees, and the Celsius equivalent of all Fahrenheit temperatures between 32 and 212 degrees. Print the output neatly in a table.arrow_forward
- An emirp (prime spelled backward) is a nonpalindromic prime number whose reversal is also a prime. For example, both 17 and 71 are prime numbers, so 17 and 71 are emirps.

Display 10 numbers per line, as follows: please complete this problem by defining three functions: (1) def reverse(number) example: input: 13 output:31 (2) def isPrime(number) example: input: 13 output:True; input: 14 output:False (3) def main() define a main function to display 100 numbers which is emirp, 10 numbers per linearrow_forwardPlease post answer in Coral One lap around a standard high-school running track is exactly 0.25 miles. Write a program that takes a number of miles as input, and outputs the number of laps.

Write a function named countDigits that accepts a positive integer as its parameter and returns the number of digits in that number. For example, the number 8546587 has seven digits, so the call countDigits(8546587) should return 7. You may assume that the value passed to your method is non-negative. b.
