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!!!

Which of the following is a nonferromagnetic material? (a) aluminum (b) iron (c) cobalt (d) gadolinium
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Iron and gadlinium are both very easily made into magnetic substances.  Cobalt is also capable of being magnetized. Aluminum, put in an alloy, can make a magnetic substance, but

Aluminum by itself is not able to be magnetized.

Could you help me with this question?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Magnitude of static friction force is 70 sin40° = 44.99 N.  

No, it is not necessary that it is maximum static friction.

Normal force is equal to 70 cos40° = 53.62 N.

Explanation:

We apply newton law of moton equation along the plane and perpendicular to plane;

Along the plane,

70 sin 40° = f_{r}  ---------------(1)

70 cos 40° = N --------------(2)

f_{r}_{max} = μN -----------------(3)

So, it depends on the value of μ that the friction is maximum or not .
