9-18. If a powerful race car has an (A/F)Mass of 12.0 (kg air)/(kg fuel), and the air intake
draws in 1.000 kg of air per second, how much fuel must be injected every second? Solve
in binary to three significant binary digits. (A: 0.000101 kg)
Need: Fuel = ____? kg. where ? is a binary number.
Know: F = 1.000/12 (in decimal) = 1.000/1100 (in binary)
9-19. Suppose we want to devise a binary code to represent the fuel levels in a car:
a) If we need only to describe the possible levels (empty, ¼ full, ½ full, ¾
full, full) how many bits are needed?
b) Give one possible binary code that describes the levels in a)
c) If we need to describe the levels (empty, 1/8 full, ¼ full, 3/8 full, ½ full,
5/8 full, ¾ full, 7/8 full, & full ) how many bits would be needed?
d) If we used an 8-bit code, how many levels could we represent?
Need: a) Number of bits = ____ (a decimal number); b) one possible
binary code; c) Number of bits = ____ (a decimal number); d) For an 8 bit
code, how many levels represented?
9-20. Construct a spreadsheet2 that converts binary numbers from 0 to 111 to decimal
numbers, print as formulae using the “control tilde” command. Check your spreadsheet
against problem 12a. (A: e.g., binary 110 ≡ 1 × 22 + 1 × 21 + 0 20 = decimal 6).
Need: Spreadsheet for binary to decimal conversion
Know: Format of binary numbers.
2 Spreadsheets have some built-in functions for decimal conversions to and from binary. It is
recommended that you try first to use the actual mathematical functions described in this chapter and then
check your answers using these functions to confirm your answers.
9-21. Construct a spreadsheet that converts decimal number 53 to binary. Print as
formulae using the “control tilde” command. Check your spreadsheet against Exercise
9.15. (Hint: 5 (decimal) can be divided by 22 to yield an integer “1” and remainder
1; 1 can’t be divided by 21 (therefore, integer “0”) and “1” can be divided by 20 for
last integer “1.” Check for a spreadsheet function that will divide two numbers and
display their result with no remainder. )
Need: Spreadsheet for decimal to binary conversion for 53 (decimal)

9-23. In the game "Rock, Scissors, Paper" we have the following rules:
Rock breaks Scissors
Scissors cuts Paper
Paper covers Rock
If we were to create a code to represent the 3 entities, Rock, Scissors and Paper, we
would need two bits. Suppose we have the following code, where we call the first bit X
and the second bit Y:
X
Y
Rock:
0
0
Scissors:
0
1
Paper:
1
0
Now if we have two players who can each choose one of these codes, we can play the
game.
Examples:
Player 1
Rock (0 0)
Player 2
Scissors (01)
Player 1 wins
Player 1
Scissors (01)
Player 2
Scissors (01)
Tie
Player 1
Paper (10)
Player 2
Rock (0 0)
Player 2 wins
We see that there are three possible outcomes of the game: Player 1 wins, Tie, Player 2
wins.
Complete the table below that describes all the possible outcomes of the game.
Player 1
X, Y
Player 2
X, Y
Player 1 wins
Tie
Player 2 wins

9-24. A company purchased a computer program for your part time job with them. The
license agreement states that you can make a backup copy, but you can only use the
program on one computer at a time. Since you have permission to make a backup copy,
why not make copies for friends? What do you do?
a) Go ahead, since your friends only use one computer at a time and these are
backup copies.
b) Make the backup copy, but sharing it with anyone clearly violates the license
agreement.
c) Ask your supervisor if you can use the backup copy at home, then make as many
copies as you wish.
d) Use the program discretely, since software license agreements can’t be enforced
anyway.
Use an Engineering Ethics Matrix to reach your conclusions.

duties, shall:

so that he can monitor its use by the public. What do you do?
