Question

A metal bar is divided into 10 segments, each with its owntemperature. The ends of the bar are connected to heat sourceswhich keep their temperatures constant. Hence, temp[0] and temp[9]are always the same values. Assume initial temperature of the restof the segments is 0 degrees.

After a short time nterval, the new temperaute of each middlesegment becomes the average of the old temperatures of the twoneighboring segments.

temp[] is initialized as

100.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.000.00 0.00 0.00 80.00

After one time step, temperatures will be

100.00 50.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 40.00 80.00

And again

100.00 50.00 25.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 20.00 40.00 80.00

etc. etc.

have user input temps for segment 0 and segment 9.

I have no idea how to keep some elements of the array at thesame value while averaging some of them . any hints??? thanks! willrate highest

Explanation / Answer

please rate - thanks #include #include # define SIZE 10     void updateTemp( float data[], int size, int i); int main (void) { float temp[SIZE]; int x=SIZE/2-1, i,j; printf("Enter temperature of segment 0: "); scanf("%f", &temp[0]); printf(" Enter temperature of segment 9: "); scanf("%f", &temp[SIZE-1]); for ( i = 1; i
