Chapter 3, Problem 5P

Write a program that allows the user to convert a temperature given in degrees from either Celsius to Fahrenheit or Fahrenheit to Celsius. Use the following formulas:

Degrees_C = 5(Degrees_F- 32)/9

Degrees_F- (9 (Degrees_C) /5) + 32)

Prompt the user to enter a temperature and either a C or c for Celsius or an F or f for Fahrenheit. Convert the temperature to Fahrenheit if Celsius is entered, or to Celsius if Fahrenheit is entered. Display the result in a readable format. If anything other than C, c, F, or f is entered, print an error message and stop.

The following table shows the approximate speed of sound in air, water, and steel:Write a program that asks the user to enter “air”, “water”, or “steel”and thedistance that a sound wave will travel in the medium. The program should thendisplay the amount of time it will take. You can calculate the amount of time ittakes sound to travel in air with the following formula: Time = Distance / 1,100You can calculate the amount of time it takes sound to travel in water with the following formula:Time = Distance / 4,900You can calculate the amount of time it takes sound to travel in steel with the follow- ingformula:Time = Distance / 16,400
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of health on weight. It can be calculated by taking your weight in kilograms and dividing by the square of your height in meters. Write a program which prompts the user to enter the weight in kgs (integer value) and height in feet and inches (both integers) and then calculates the BMI of the person. Your program first need to convert inches to meters (i.e. inches * 0.0254) and then use the following formula to calculate BMI: weight kilogram / (height_meter)^2 Your program displays the BMI value in two decimal places and the corresponding status as shown in the examples below. Note that one inch is 0.0254 meters and 1 foot is 12 inches. For example: Input Result 62 5 10 89 6 0 45 BMI BMI < 18.5 18.5 s BMI < 25.0 25.0 ≤ BMI < 30.0 30.0 ≤ BMI 7 82 5 Interpretation Underweight Normal Overweight Obese 2 Enter weight (kg): Enter height (feet): Enter height (inches): BMI is 19.61, Normal Enter weight (kg): Enter height (feet): Enter height (inches): BMI is…
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.
