Answer: Hence, the probability that he will get at least one lemon is 0.70.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cars = 30

Number of lemon cars = 10

Number of other than lemon cars = 30-10 = 20

According to question, he bought 3 cars,

we need to find the probability that you will get at least one lemon.

So, P(X≤1)=1-P(X=0)=1-P(no lemon)

Here, P(no lemon ) is given by

\dfrac{20}{30}\times \dfrac{20}{30}\times \dfrac{20}{30}=(\dfrac{20}{30})^3

so, it becomes,

P(X\geq 1)=1-(\dfrac{20}{30})^3=1-(0.67)^3=0.70

Hence, the probability that he will get at least one lemon is 0.70.

When a particular mass-spring system is started by stretching the spring 3 cm, one complete oscillation takes 4 seconds.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

A. 5.16 s.

B. 5.66 s.

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

For a simple harmonic motion,

T = 2pi (sqrt * (l/g))

Given:

L1 = 3 cm

T1 = 4 s

L2 = 5 cm

T2 = ?

4 = 2pi*sqrt(3/g)

g = 7.4

At, L2,

T2 = 2pi*sqrt(5/7.4)

= 5.16 s.

B.

M1 = M1

M2 = 2*M1

For a simple harmonic motion,

T = 2pi (sqrt * (m/k))

4 = 2pi (sqrt * (M1/k))

M1/k = 0.405

Inputting the above values,

T2 = 2pi (sqrt * (2*M1/k))

= 2pi (sqrt * (2 * 0.405))

= 5.66 s.
