Describe an efficient algorithm that, given a set {x1, x2,...,xn} of points on the real line, determines the smallest set of unit-length closed intervals that contains all of the given points. (A unit length interval just means any closed interval with length 1. I. e., an interval [a, b] where b − a = 1.)
a. Briefly describe a greedy algorithm for the unit length interval problem.
b. State and prove a "swapping lemma" for your greedy algorithm.
c. Write a proof that uses your swapping lemma to show that your greedy algorithm does indeed produce a set of intervals that contain all of the points {x1, x2,...,xn} with the fewest number of intervals.

If a rock is thrown upward on the planet mars with a velocity of 12 m/s, its height (in meters) after t seconds is given by h = 12t − 1.86t2. (a) find the velocity of the rock after two seconds. m/s (b) find the velocity of the rock when t = a. 12−3.72a m/s (c) when will the rock hit the surface? (round your answer to one decimal place.) t = s (d) with what velocity will the rock hit the surface? m/s

Select light for the type of wave, adjust the wavelength so that the light is red, and increase the amplitude of the light to the max. then, select the start button at the source location to begin producing the waves. light is a form of electromagnetic wave, containing oscillating electric and magnetic fields. the wave amplitude detector mentioned above shows how the electric field oscillates in time at the location of the probe. the amplitude of the wave at the location of the probe is equal to the maximum electric field measured. how does the amplitude of the wave depend on the distance from the source?

Ateacher gives students four liquids commonly found in the kitchen - vinegar, apple juice, dish detergent, and milk - and ph indicator strips, which measure acidity. the teacher asks the students to put the liquids in order from most acidic to most basic. what type of investigation could the students conduct to determine the correct order for the liquids?
