Assume that our computer stores decimal numbers using 16 bits - 10 bits for a sign/magnitude mantissa and 6 bits for a sign/magn

itude base-2 exponent. (The way we showed in class.) Show the internal representation of the following decimal quantities.
a. +7.5
b. -20.25
c. -1/64

madreJ [45]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

a) 7.5= 111.1×2°= 0.1111×2^3

which can also be written as

(1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16)×8

sign of mantissa:=0

Mantissa(9 bits): 111100000

sign of exponent: 0

Exponent(5 bits): 0011

the final for this is:011110000000011

b) -20.25= -10100.01×2^0= -0.1010001×2^5

sign of mantissa: 1

Mantissa(9 bits): 101000100

sign of exponent: 0

Exponent(5 bits): 00101

the final for this is:1101000100000101

c)-1/64= -.000001×2^0= -0.1×2^{-5}

sign of mantissa: 1

Mantissa(9 bits): 100000000

sign of exponent: 0

Exponent(5 bits): 00101

the final for this is:1100000000100101

A .100 kg bullet is flying at 200 m/s. How much energy is the bullet storing due to its motion?
morpeh [17]

KE = 2000 J

Explanation:

KE = (1/2)mv^2

= (1/2)(0.100 kg)(200 m/s)^2

= 2000 J

Why is it important for engineers to design bumper cars safely
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Cars have bumpers designed to protect the body of the car from minor damage during low-speed collisions. ... They will use the engineering design process to design and build bumpers to protect the main parts of their car from damage, and use their knowledge of Newton's third law to explain what they observe.

What effect do increasing amounts of greenhouse gases have on earth and the organisms that live here?
pickupchik [31]

Answer and Explanation:

The increasing amounts of greenhouse gases causes climate change and global warming, sea level rises and oceans become warmer.

When prolonged into the future and no actions are being taken; drastic droughts will happen which threatens agricultural in an extreme manner, wildlife living in the forests will be pressurized, and animals/organisms living in the ocean will be affected too due to rising temperature causing the reduced Oxygen effects.

The examples include: the melting of Arctic ice endangering the polar bears, fishes and aquatic marines will die at part of the oceans which has higher temperature (lack of oxygen), poorer regions will have adverse impacts on the human being due to agriculture deterioration and lack of proper system and social readiness to adapt to climate change.

To fight climate change, we must reduce carbon pollution (burning of coals which releases large carbon dioxide/monoxide etc.) through setting up of policies by multinational companies, greener business to reduce emissions, and help people to adapt to climate change or at least educate people about climate change.
