To solve this problem we will apply the normal distribution, with which we will obtain the probability that the given event will occur. Concepts such as the mean and standard deviation will be present throughout the solution of the problem. Increasing or decreasing the average would change the location or center point of the curve. The change in the standard deviation would lead to the change in the dispersion of the data. As the standard deviation increases, the curve would become flatter.
Let X be the output voltage of power supply
X∼N 
A
The lower and upper specifications for voltage are 4.95 V and 5.05 V, respectively





Hence probability that a power supply selected at random will conform to the specifications on voltage is 0.9876
B is the right answer. Multiply numbers you get the answer
When the metal spoon comes in contact with the hot soup, heat transfer from hot soup to the spoon because of difference in temperature of the two. The kind of heat transfer represented here is conduction. In conduction, heat is transferred from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature when there is a physical contact between the two.
Answer:
.
Explanation:
The efficiency of a machine is the percentage of energy input that was turned into useful energy.
The power rating of this lamp is
(same as
,) meaning that
of energy is supplied to this lamp every second.
The question states that
out of that
of energy input would be turned into heat, which is not useful energy output in this scenario. Assuming that all other forms of energy loss is negligible. The rest of the
of energy supplied to this lamp would be turned into useful energy output.
Thus, every second, this lamp would receive
of energy input and would outputs
of useful work. The efficiency of this lamp would be:
.
