this is the code i wrote till now.

i am getting very awkward results.
and i think the problem in the formulae i used and i am not able to go forward as i dont know the correct ones. plz help

Hi,
I am currently doing a similar project. Have you solved the problem? What's the meaning of p1? I am looking forward to your reply. Thank you.
