Answer:

a) 0.0625 = 6.25%

b) 106.67 Ω

c) 9.43 Ω

d) 1

Explanation:

The probability distribution is given as

f(x) = (x - 80)/800 for 80 < x < 120

f(x) = 0 otherwise.

f(x) = (x/800) - (0.1)

a) Proportion of resistors with resistance less than 90 Ω

P(X < 90) = ∫⁹⁰₈₀ f(x) dx

∫⁹⁰₈₀ f(x) dx = ∫⁹⁰₈₀ [(x/800) - (0.1)]

= [(x²/1600) - 0.1x]⁹⁰₈₀

= [(90²/1600) - 0.1(90)] - [(80²/1600) - 0.1(80)]

= (5.0625 - 9) - [4 - 8]

= -3.9375 + 4 = 0.0625 = 6.25%

b) The mean is given by the expected value expression E(X) = = Σ xᵢpᵢ (with the sum done all over the data set for each variable and its corresponding probability)

It can be written in integral form as

Mean = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ xf(x) dx (with the integral done all over the probability function, i.e. from, 80 to 120)

Mean = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ x[(x/800) - (0.1)] dx

= ∫¹²⁰₈₀ [(x²/800) - (0.1x)] dx

= [(x³/2400) - (0.05x²)]¹²⁰₈₀

= [(120³/2400) - (0.05(120²)] - [(80³/2400) - (0.05(80²)]

= [720 - 720] - [213.33 - 320] = 106.67 Ω

c) Standard deviation = √(variance)

Variance = Var(X) = Σx²p − μ²

μ = mean = expected value = 106.67 Ω

Σx²p = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ x²f(x) dx = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ x² [(x/800) - (0.1)] dx = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ [(x³/800) - (0.1x²)] dx

= [(x⁴/3200) - (0.0333x³)]¹²⁰₈₀

= [(120⁴/3200) - (0.0333(120³)] - [(80⁴/3200) - (0.0333(80)³)]

= (64800 - 57600) - (12800 - 17066.667)

= 11466.667

Variance = 11466.667 - 106.67² = 88.85

Standard deviation = √88.85 = 9.43 Ω

d) Cdf = sum of probabilities over the entire probability function

Cdf = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ f(x) dx = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ [(x/800) - (0.1)] dx

= [(x²/1600) - 0.1x]¹²⁰₈₀ = [(120²/1600) - 0.1(120)] - [(80²/1600) - 0.1(80)] = (9 - 12) - (4 - 8) = -3+4 = 1 as it should be!!!

Hope this Helps!!!

What is the amount of work done when a force of 10N moves a 20kg mass of 8 meters?
Nataly_w [17]

Yo sup??

we should know that

work done=force*displacement

W=F.s

F=10 N

s=8 m

therefore

W=10*8

=80 N

Hope this helps.

<span>During adverse weather conditions such as rain or fog, drivers should take action accordingly by turning on their headlights, slowing down and increasing following distance. Adverse weather means that you are driving in difficult and dangerous conditions. Increasing following distance will help you to maintain safe driving and avoid tailgating. </span>

What will the magnitude of the field be if the 10 nc charge is replaced by a 20 nc charge? Assume the system is big enough to co
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Same magnitude of the 10 nc charge cause the electric field is external.

Explanation:

To do a better explanation, let's go and suppose we have an electric field of, 1300 N/C with a 10 nC charge.

As the system we are talking about is really big, and the charge is small, we can assume always if the charge is sitting right in the same point where the electric field is, then, the electric field would not suffer any kind of alteration in it's value. Therefore, no matter what value of the charge is sitting here, the electric field is independent of the charge, so it would not feel any alteration. However, the force that the charge is feeling would be stronger than in the first case.

F = qE

If charge is doubled, then the force would be bigger in the second case than in the first case, but electric field remain the same value.
