Question:
The operations manager for a well-drilling company must recommend whether to build a new facility, expand his existing one, or do nothing. He estimates that long-run profits (in $000) will vary with the amount of precipitation (rainfall) as follows:
Alternative Precipitation
Low Normal High
Do nothing -100 100 300
Expand 350 500 200
Build new 750 300 0
If he feels the chances of low, normal, and high precipitation are 30 percent, 20 percent, and 50 percent respectively, What is EVPI (Expected value of Perfect Information)?
A. $140,000
B. $170,000
C. $285,000
D. $305,000
E. $475,000
Answer:
D. $170,000
Explanation:
The expected long run profits are for
Low Normal High
Do nothing -100*0.3 100*0.2 300*0.5 = 140
Expand 350*0.3 500*0.2 200*0.5 = 305
Build new 750*0.3 300*0.2 0*0.5 = 285
Therefore the expected long run profits are
$140,000
$305,000
$285,000
Based on his selected option being either to build new or to expand, the most profitable option is to expand
=$305,000
EVPI = EPPI-EMV =$170,000
Answer:
c=0.14J/gC
Explanation:
A.
2) The specific heat will be the same because it is a property of the substance and does not depend on the medium.
B.
We can use the expression for heat transmission

In this case the heat given by the metal (which is at a higher temperature) is equal to that gained by the water, that is to say

for water we have to
c = 4.18J / g ° C
replacing we have

I hope this is useful for you
A.
2) El calor específico será igual porque es una propiedad de la sustancia y no depende del medio.
B.
Podemos usar la expresión para la transmisión de calor

En este caso el calor cedido por el metal (que está a mayor temperatura) es igual al ganado por el agua, es decir

para el agua tenemos que
c=4.18J/g°C
reemplazando tenemos

<span>The line that is drawn perpendicular to the point at which a wave intersects a boundary is know as the Normal .
When the normal is drawn, the incident ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence and the reflected ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence. These angles are always equal.
The refracted ray makes an angle with the normal known as angle of refraction. The sin of angle of incidence to the sin of angle of refraction is called the refractive index( </span>μ= <span>sin i / sin r) .
hope all of it helps you!</span>
Answer:
iv) It is 9x bigger than before
Explanation:
As the amplitudes of the new speakers add directly with the original one, taking into account the phase that they have, the composed amplitude of the sound wave is as follows:
At = A + 4A -2A = 3 A
The intensity of the wave, assuming it propagates evenly in all directions, is constant at a given distance from the source, and can be expressed as follows:
I = P/A
where P= Power of the wave source, A= Area (for a point source, is equal to the surface area of a sphere of radius r, where is r is the distance to the source along a straight line)
For a sinusoidal wave, the power is proportional to the square of the amplitude, so the intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude also.
If the amplitude changes increasing three times, the change in intensity will be proportional to the square of the change in amplitude, i.e., it will be 9 times bigger.
So, the statement iv) is the right one.
