Based ona free-body diagram, the system differential equation is expressed in (1). Using LaplaceTransform, this time-domain equation leads to a position-to-external force transfer functiongiven by equation (2). Once the transfer function is derived, a set of parameter values (m = 0.1kg, b = 1 N*s/m and k = 2 N/m) is used to obtain the system transfer function shown in (3

Given the 24 required credit hours,if a student comes in as a freshman, s/he can finish 3 Honors credit hours per semester (requiredto maintain Honors College good standing) and graduate in 4 years (or 8 semesters) with anHonors diploma. However, if a student transfers in at practically the sophomore level, s/he has todouble up on his/her Honors course or Honors contract in two semesters, which can bechallenging and time-consuming. Practically, it is not recommended for juniors or seniors toconsider Honors College, if they are not already in the Honors College.Although the 24 Honors credit hours can be earned through either Honors courses or Honorscontracts, the engineering and technology students have little to no capacity

From the result that S+ Lp = 138 cm, and choosing Lp =100 cm > 94 cm, one canobtain S = 38 cm. The rear sensor should read a distance around dr = 30 cm at the turning point P.To avoid accident, the parking space length is set as L = 110 cm > 104 cm and is then used in thecriteria for parking space finding in Eq.

The opportunity to examine the impacts ofattendance on individual students as they progress through their academic years towardgraduation can be examined. There is still much to investigate leading to new discoveries andfindings uncovering facts that can be utilized to guide and advise students on ways to besuccessful during their college experience. Exactly where the new direction of the study will gois unknown. One future area of research could be to focus on specific reasons for poorattendance that correlate with a drop off in grades.Bibliography 1. Armstrong, J.

To generate time domainsignals (message signal and carrier signal) a sequence (an array) of time values has to begenerated. By using the “colon operator” (:) this can be done in a single line of coding in Matlab.An array of time values starting at zero and ending at with an increment of is created bytyping 0: : to create the message signal and the carrier signal. Here, the time increment ischosen to be the reciprocal value of the sampling rate , so that the time domain signals contain5000 samples per second. Time is arbitrarily chosen to be 0.2 s.
