One way to remember how technological systems work is to think of them as social. Individuals and groups are all important to a society’s function as a whole. How is a technological system MOST like a society

Let r be a robotic arm with a fixed base and seven links. the last joint of r is a prismatic joint, the other ones are revolute joints. give a set of parameters that determines a placement of r. what is the dimension of the configuration space resulting from your choice of parameters?

Write a program that uses a random number generator to generate a two digit positive integer and allows the user to perform one or more of the following operations: a. double the number. b. reverse the digits of the number. c. raise the number to the power of 2, 3, or 4. d. sum the digits of the number. e. if the number is a two-digit number, then raise the first digit to the power of the second digit. f. if the number is a three-digit number and the last digit is less than or equal to 4, then raise the first two digits to the power of the last digit. after performing an operation if the number is less than 10, add 10 to the number. also, after each operation determine if the number is prime. each successive operation should be performed on the number generated by the last operation. your program should not contain any global variables and each of these operations must be implemented by a separate function. also, your program should be menu driven. 7. (fraction calculator) write a program that

Suppose there is a relation r(a, b, c) with a b+-tree index with search keys (a, b).1. what is the worst-case cost of finding records satisfying 10 < a < 50 using this index, in terms of the number of records n1, retrieved and the height h of the tree? 2. what is the worst-case cost of finding records satisfying 10 < a < 50 and 5 < b < 10 using this index, in terms of the number of records n2 that satisfy this selection, as well as n1 and h defined above? 3. under what conditions on n1 and n2, would the index be an efficient way of finding records satisfying the condition from part (2)?
