A professional soccer player succeeds in scoring a goal on 84% of his penalty kicks. assume that the success of each kick is ind

ependent. (a) in a series of games, what is the probability that the first time he fails to score a goal is on his fifth penalty kick? (b) what is the probability that he scores on 5 or fewer of his next 10 penalty kicks? (c) suppose that our soccer player is out of action with an injury for several weeks. when he returns, he only scores on 5 of his next 10 penalty kicks. is this evidence that his success rate is now less than 84%? explain.

A. Using the geometric probability:  .84^4 * (1-.84) = 0.07966; this means that <span>the probability that he makes his first * the probability he makes his second * the probability he makes his third * the probability he makes his fourth * the probability he misses his fifth. 

b. P (X<= 5) = binomcdf (10, 0.84, 5) = 0.0130

c. From the answer in B, if the success rate of the player still continues at 84%, the probability that he will score 5 or few goals in the 10 penalty kicks will still remain at 0.0130. This is quite low, we should examine him about whether he can still hit at 84% of his shots. So given from this data, we could say that his penalty kick success rate has fallen below the given rate of 84%.</span>

Geometric Distributions:Deals with the number of trials required until a single success.
 Geometric random variable: the number of trials (y) it takes to get a success in a geometric setting.
 When do you use it? To find first success or failure
 Calculator Commands
 When it takes more than n trials...1-geometcdf(p,n)
 When it take n trials... geometpdf(p,x)
 When it it takes a max of n trials...geometcdf(p,x)
 a. geometcdf(.16,5) = .0797
 b. binomcdf(10,.84,5) = .013
 c. From par b. if the soccer player's succes rate were still 84%, the probability that he would score 5 or few goals in 10 penalty kicks is 0.0130. This is so low thatwe should be suspicious about whether he can still hit 84% of his shots. We have convincing that his penalty kick success rate has fallen below 84%

A sailboat travels a distance of 600 m in 40 seconds. What speed is it going?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

15 miles /seconds

Explanation:

Distance = 600m

Time = 40 seconds

Speed=?

speed =  \frac{distance}{time}  \\ speed =  \frac{600}{40}

Simplify

\frac{600}{40}  =  \frac{60}{4}  \\  = 15

A grating has 470 lines/mm. how many orders of the visible wavelength 538 nm can it produce in addition to the m = 0 order?
Natali [406]

Three complete orders on each side of the m=0 order can be produced in addition to the m=0 order.

The ruling separation is d=1/(470mm-1)

= 2.1 \times 10 {}^{ - 3}mm

Diffraction lines occurs at an angle θ such that dsin=mλ,when λ is the wavelength and m is an integer.

Notice that for a given order,the line associated with a long wavelength is produced at a greater angle than the line associated with shorter wavelength.

we take λ to be the longest wavelength in the visible spectrum (538nm) and find the greatest integer value of m such that θ is less than 90°.

That is,find the greater integer value of m for which mλ<d.

since,d/λ

= 538 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} m/2.1 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}

There are three complete orders on each side of the m=0 order.

The second and third orders overlap.

A laser with a power of 1.0 mW has a beam radius of 1.0 mm. What is the peak value of the electric field in that beam
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The peak value of the electric field is 489.64 V/m

Explanation:

Given;

power of the laser, P = 1.0 mW = 1 x 10⁻³ W

Radius of the beam, R = 1.0 mm = 1 x 10⁻³ m

Area of the beam = πr² = π(1 x 10⁻³ )² = 3.142 x 10⁻⁶ m²

The average intensity of the light = P / A

The average intensity of the light = ( 1 x 10⁻³) / (3.142 x 10⁻⁶)

The average intensity of the light = 318.27 W/m²

The peak value of the electric field is given by;

E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2I_{avg}}{c\epsilon_o}}\\\\E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2(318.27)}{(3*10^8)(8.85*10^{-12})}}\\\\E_o = 489.64 \ V/m

Therefore, the peak value of the electric field is 489.64 V/m.

LenaWriter [7]
True. Though typically crack deals take place in a car, or in an alley. The middle of a long block is kind of exposed. It could happen anywhere in Chicago though.
But yeah, criminals structure crime.
