DO NOT use MATLAB to solve this problem.   This is a MATLAB programming problem. In order to receive full credit for this problem, you must write syntactically correct MATLAB code that, if run, would produce the correct answer to the problem and all elements of a GOOD code. (From Physics)   When computing the average power consumed in an electrical circuit with a resistor and a capacitor, the following equations are used: (units have been removed)   P = V2/Z X = 2 π f L Z = sqrt(R2 + X2) where: f = 60L = 0.025R = 10V = 50   Note:  DO NOT use 3.14159… for π.  You MUST use the MATLAB function for π. Problem:  Write a MATLAB code to compute a value for the Average Power, P.  TYPE the full code into Blackboard. DO NOT simply substitute values into the above equations, and then write one big assignment statement.  Instead, you MUST write separate assignment statements for each variable, and calculation statements ordered correctly.  Have the code ONLY display the value for P.  Don’t worry about the units involved, they work out.   Use “good” programming style discussed.

John, the COO of Missouri Northern Tool Company, found that one of the stores in Columbia was shut down with multiple components down for maintenance.

The store manager was left alone to get the store up and running. Which concept best explains John’s perceptual process?
