wall socket for a terminal in the front wall, so the sockets form a rectangular grid in the
vertical plane, with a separation of 4 m between sockets, both horizontally and
vertically. Assuming that it is feasible to run a straight cable between any pair of
sockets, horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, how many meters of cable are needed to
connect all sockets using
a. (a) a star configuration with a single router in the middle?

Pakistan Railway has hired you for the task of repair of its rail networks of province SINDH, the cost of the repair of track between the different cities are presented in the given Table. For instance, the entry (KHI,HYD)= 10 in the table tells us the cost of building a rail connection between these two cities is 10 (in million rupees)
You are required to develop a rail network that connects all the cities by at least one path with the smallest cost by avoiding multiple paths to the same city. Hence the problem becomes the finding of Minimum spanning tree in a graph.
Your job is as follows;
a) Translate the given information in the form of Graph (Vertices & edges)
b) Use Greedy Algorithms (Kruskal’s , if the S5 is odd & Prim’s technique , if S5 is even) to build rail connections in this scenario. Apply this algorithm and show all steps up to the final routes.
c) What is the cost of repairing of resulting rail network?
A regional telephone company had 5.2 million subscribers. Each of their telephones is connected to a central office by a copper twisted pair. The average length of these twisted pairs is 3.5 km. How much is the copper in the local loops worth? Assume that the cross section of each strand is a circle 1.2 mm in diameter, the density of copper is 8.4 grams/cm3, and that copper sells for $15.00 per kilogram.

To evaluate the effect of material properties on the beam's deflection, the m-file must create a plot of the value of the maximum deflection for 100 equally spaced E values ranging from 30,000 kN/cm? to 70,000 kN/cm?.
