Mopeds (small motorcycles with an engine capacity below 50 cm3) are very popular in Europe because of their mobility, ease of operation, and low cost. Suppose the maximum speed of a moped is normally distributed with mean value 46.6 km/h and standard deviation 1.75 km/h. Consider randomly selecting a single such moped.

a) P ( X ≤ 49 ) = 0.9149

b) P ( X ≥ 48 ) = 0.2119

c) 0.9876

Explanation:

Solution:-

- Lets define a random variable X: the maximum speed of a moped.

- The random variable follows normal distribution with the following parameters:

X ~ Norm ( u , σ^2 )

Where,

u = Mean = 46.6 km/h

σ = Standard deviation 1.75 km/h

Hence,

X ~ Norm ( 46.6 , 1.75^2 ).

a) The probability that the maximum speed of mopeds is atmost 49 km/h?

- To evaluate the probability of P ( X ≤ 49 ). We will find the standard Z-score value using the following formula:

$Z-score = \frac{x-u}{s} \\\\ Z-score = \frac{49-46.6}{1.75} \\\\Z-score = 1.37142$

- Now use the standard normal tables to determine the required probability of:

P ( Z < 1.37142 ) = 0.9149

Hence,

P ( X ≤ 49 ) = 0.9149

b) The probability that the maximum speed of mopeds is at-least 48 km/h?

- To evaluate the probability of P ( X ≥ 48 ). We will find the standard Z-score value using the following formula:

$Z-score = \frac{x-u}{s} \\\\ Z-score = \frac{48-46.6}{1.75} \\\\Z-score = 0.8$

- Now use the standard normal tables to determine the required probability of:

P ( Z ≥ 0.8 ) = 0.2119

Hence,

P ( X ≥ 48 ) = 0.2119

c) The probability that the maximum speed of mopeds differs from mean by at-most 2.5 standard deviation.

- The required probability is the standard error from the mean value "u" of 2.5 standard deviation.

- We don't need to evaluate the test statistics as we are already given the standard error about mean.

- Using, the standard normal Z-score: The required probability is:

P ( -2.5 < Z < 2.5 ) = 2*P ( Z < 2.5 ) - 1

= 2*0.9938 - 1

= 0.9876

Astudent throws a water balloon with speed v0 from a height h = 1.76 m at an angle θ = 21° above the horizontal toward a target on the ground. the target is located a horizontal distance d = 9.5 m from the student’s feet. assume that the balloon moves without air resistance. use a cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the balloon's initial position. (a) what is the position vector, rtarge t, that originates from the balloon's original position and terminates at the target? put this in terms of h and d, and represent it as a vector using i and j. (b) in terms of the variables in the problem, determine the time, t, after the launch it takes the balloon to reach the target. your answer should not include h. (c) create an expression for the balloon's vertical position as a function of time, y(t), in terms of t, vo, g, and θ. (d) determine the magnitude of the balloon's initial velocity, v0, in meters per second, by eliminating t from the previous two expressions.

In the future, people will only enjoy one sport: electrodisc. in this sport, you gain points when you cause metallic discs hovering on a field to exchange charge. you are an electrodisc player playing the popular four disc variant. the disks have charges of qa = −8.0 µc, qb = −2.0 µc, qc = +5.0 µc, and qd = +12.0 µc. (1) you bring two disks together and then separate them. you measure the resulting charge of these two disks and find that it is +5.0 µc per disk. which two disks did you bring together? (a) a and b (b) a and c (c)a and d (d)b and c(e) b and d (f) c and d. (2) you bring three disks together and then separate them. you measure the resulting charge of these three disks and find that it is +3.0 µc per disk. which three disks did you bring together? a, b, and c (a) a, b, and d (c) a, c, and d (d) b, c, and d. (3) given the resulting charge of each disk measured in (b) is +3.0 µc, how many electrons would you need to add to a disk of this charge to electrically neutralize it? electrons
