Chapter 4, Problem 4.40MD

(World Population Growth) World population has grown considerably over the centuries. Continued growth could eventually challenge the limits of breathable air, drinkable water, arable cropland and other limited resources. There’s evidence that growth has been slowing in recent years and that world population could peak some time this century, then start to decline. For this exercise, research world population growth issues online. Be sure to investigate various viewpoints. Get estimates for the current world population and its growth rate (the percentage by which it’s likely to increase this year). Write a program that calculates world population growth each year for the next 75 years, using the simplifying assumption that the current growth rate will stay constant. Print the results in a table. The first column should display the year from year 1 to year 75. The second column should display the anticipated world population at the end of that year. The third column should display the numerical increase in the world population that would occur that year. Using your results, determine the year in which the population would be double what it is today, if this year’s growth rate were to persist.

Can you answer the following question
Moon effect. Some people believe that the Moon controls their activities. If the Moon moves from being directly on the opposite side of Earth from you to being directly overhead, by what percentage does (a) the Moon's gravitational pull on you increase and (b) your weight (as measured on a scale) decrease? Assume that the Earth-Moon (center-to-center) distance is 3.82 x 10° m, Earth's radius is 6.37 x 106 m, Moon's mass is 7.36 x 1022 kg, and Earth's mass is 5.98 x 1024 kg. (a) Number 6.89 Units percent (b) Number i 6.8713e-4 Units percent
2) A BMI Calculator: the body mass index (BMI) is a measure used to determine whether a person is overweight or not. We can calculate BMI from the weight of the person (in pounds) and the height (in inches) of the person. The formula for calculating BMI is: BMI = (weightInPounds 703) divided by (heightInInches squared) In this problem, you will have to create a BMI calculator, i.e., a Java program, that reads the user's weight in pounds and height in inches, then calculates and displays the user's body mass index BMI. Also, display the following information from the US Department of Health) so the user can evaluate his/her BMI: BMI values: Underweight: less than 18.5 Normal: between 18.5 and 24.9 Overweight: between 25 and 29.9 Obese: 30 or greater
