The resistance is 16 ohm's

V=I x R where V is the voltage, I is the current, and R is the resistance in Ohms

120= 15 x R

R=120/15

R= 8 Ohm's

P=VxV / R

P=120v x 120v / 8 ohms

P= 14400/8

P = 1800 watts

R = V x V/P

R = 14400/900

R = 16 Ohm's

The resistance is 16 ohm's:

I = V/R

I = 120/16

I = 7.5 Amps

The producer thread will alternate between sleeping for a random period of time and inserting a random integer into the buffer.
Llana [10]

Answer:

// Producer Thread

void *producer(void *param) {

buffer_item item;

while (true) {

item = rand() % 100;

sem_wait(&empty);

pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex);

if (insert_item(item))

printf("Can't insert item\n");

else

printf("Producer %d: produced %d\n", *((int*)param), item);

pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex);

sem_post(&full);

}

}

// Consumer Thread

void *consumer(void *param) {

while (true) {

buffer_item item = NULL;

if (in > 0)

item = buffer[in - 1];

sem_wait(&full);

pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex);

if (remove_item(&item))

printf("Can't remove item\n");

else

printf("Consumer %d: consumed %d\n", *((int*)param), item);

pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex);

sem_post(&empty);

}

}

Explanation:

An outline of the producer and consumer threads appears as shown above.
