Program Overview

This Python program models a futuristic system where an acclimator consumes energy measured in liters from its chamber, powered by a lithium thermocouple battery.
The user enters the battery volume in liters, and the program estimates how far the system can travel based on assumed energy-to-distance conversion rates.
For example:
- Each liter of battery provides 120 energy units
- Each energy unit allows 15 meters of travel


Python Code:


# Get battery volume from user
battery_liters = float(input("Enter lithium battery volume (liters): "))

# Convert to energy units
energy_units = battery_liters * 120  # Assumption: 1 liter = 120 energy units

# Calculate travel distance
distance_meters = energy_units * 15  # Assumption: 1 unit = 15 meters

# Display result
print("\n--- Result ---")
print(f"With {battery_liters:.2f} liters of thermocouple battery,")
print(f"the system can travel approximately {distance_meters:.2f} meters.")

Sample Output:


Enter lithium battery volume (liters): 2.5  

--- Result ---  
With 2.50 liters of thermocouple battery,  
the system can travel approximately 4500.00 meters.

Explanation:

- The user enters battery volume in liters
- The program converts it to energy units using a fixed multiplier
- Then it estimates travel distance based on energy-to-distance conversion
- The result is displayed with two decimal places for clarity
