Discuss the ethics of the circumstances that resulted in the Columbia shuttle disaster. Considering the predictions that were ma

de years before the disaster, as well as the reliability of the Binomial distribution and its implications, what could or should the engineers associated with the program have done differently

Explanation:

This is not so much a mathematical issue as a case study, because the response will inevitably require us to test the special Columbic shuttle disaster scenario. I would suggest that you read this in detail and present the points accordingly. Here I give as many points as I think are relevant.

The failure of a space program is definitely a complex situation, more than a simple binomial distribution. It's definitely not as simple as repeating the flip of a coin. There are several coherent factors and situations that govern the overall coordination and execution of such an event. The problem is, those who are running a project like this are still making a trade off,It is never the case that they sealed the lid on any chance of failure between multiple parameters. You try to do something, but often, as is the case above, the potentially dangerous situation is impossible or uncontrollable. Since the root cause of failure, which is dried out tiles that can not withstand heat and water, it appears that owing to the constant use of the shuttle the head architects have not foreseen this.

Python Codio Question:
tester [92]

Answer:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

# Get N from the command line

import sys

N = int(sys.argv[1])

if N > 0: #N is positive  

   positve = list(range(N,0,-1))

   print(positve)

elif N < 0: #N is negative  

   negative = list(range(N,0,1))

   print(negative)

else:

   print("Invalid in input")

Explanation:

First, you need to identify if the number entered is positive, negative or none of them, for that we use one if, one elif and one else statement:

  • If the number entered (N) is greater than zero (is positive) we print a list in the range N to 0 in steps of minus one, the zero is not printed because the function range by default omits the last value
  • If the previous statement was False and the number entered is smaller than zero (is negative) we print a list in the range N to 0 in steps of one, the zero is not printed because the function range by default omits the last value
  • Finally, if the two previous events were false print invalid input

A room has a width of 14.1 feet, a length of 15.5 feet, and a ceiling height of 12.0 ft. The average flow rate for this room's a
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Your question lacks the time required hence i will calculate the Average flow rate using a general concept and an assumed time value of 25 seconds  

ANSWER : 104.904 ft^3/sec

Explanation:

General concept : Average flow rate is the volume of fluid per unit time through an area

Hence the average flow rate of the air conditioning unit of this room

Volume of the room / time taken for the air to cycle the room = v / t

assuming the time taken = 25 seconds

volume of room = width * length * height

                          = 14.1 * 15.5 * 12 = 2622.6 ft^3

Average flow rate = V/ t

                              = 2622.6 / 25  = 104.904 ft^3/sec
