• 1. The capacitance of two parallel conductors of length L and radius r, separated by a distance d

is given by

L C = d r ln r πε − ⎛ ⎞ ⎜ ⎟ ⎝ ⎠

where ε is the permittivity of air (ε =8.854x10-12 F/m). Write a script file that accepts user input for C, L, and r, and computes and displays the distance value d that gives in the specified capacitance value C. Test your file with L = 0.5 m, r = 0.01 m, and C = 1 µF. Script File Code The distance d is

2.

• 2. Repeat Problem 1 by writing a Matlab function that accepts the input values C, r, and L in its

argument and returns calculated value d. Your function should be written such that it is capable of processing single and multiple values for C, r, and L, i.e. it should operate on

• vectors. Test your function with the following values C = [2 mF , 0.1 mF], L = [0.2 m 0.1m],

and r = [0.05 and 0.02]. Function Code

• 5. Write a function to find the coefficients of the polynomial y = ax3 + bx2 + cx + d. The

functions should accept a set of four data points (xi,yi), i=1,2,3,4 and solve four linear equations in terms of the four unknowns a,b,c, and d. Test your function for the case where (xi,yi)= (-2,-20), (0,4), (2,68), and (4,508), whose answer is a = 7, b=5, c = -6, and d = 4.

• 6. A company wants to locate a distribution center that will serve six of its major customers in a

30x30 mi area. The locations of the customers relative to the southwest corner of the area are given in the following table in terms of (x,y) coordinates (the x direction is east; the y direction is north) (see figure below). Also given is the volume in tons per week that must be delivered from the distribution center each customer. The weekly delivery cost ci for customer i depends on the volume Vi and distance di from the distribution center. For simplicity we will assume that the distance is a straight line distance. The weekly cost ci = 0.5 Vi * di ; i = 1,2,…,6. Formulate the total cost function for all customers then use MATLAB to find the

• ptimal location for the distribution center (the location that produces the minimum total

weekly cost). Hint: formulate the objective function as a function handle and then use the fminsearch function. Customer x Location (miles y Location (miles) Volume (tons/week) 1 1 28 3 2 7 18 7 3 8 16 4 4 17 2 5 5 22 10 2 6 27 8 6
