Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 7.17CP
For the following computer problems, any appropriate software may be used. Input prompts should fully explain what is required of the user (the program should be user-friendly). The resulting output should be well labeled and self-explanatory. For spreadsheet problems, any appropriate software may be used.
7.17 Use a spreasheet program to solve for the centroid location of built-up areas such as shown in Problem 7.12 
and 7.28. 
The user should be able to input the appropriate geometric properties for any shapes of the types shown, and the program should then determine the centroid location and display the result. Vary a single shape or dimension and observe how the location of the centroid is affected.

NO NEED TO SOLVE. THANK YOU In Rizal province, one of its power plants has been thoroughly monitored for possible conversion into a wind power plant. A propeller wind turbine is to be used. Survey showed that Rizal Province at a height of 10 meters above the ground has a minimum wind speed of 7.1 miles per hour duringthe month of June and a maximum wind speed of 12.9 miles per hour during the month of January. The minimum temperature is at 75 degree Fahrenheit during the month of January and maximum temperature is at 89 degree Fahrenheit during the month of May. The existing power plant has an output of 54MW. For the proposed wind power, the power coefficient of turbine is 35% and the generator efficiency is 95%. Theimpeller diameter is assumed not to exceed 90m. Determine the following:a. Theoretical Wind Power Outputb. Electrical Power Outputc.
