A warehouse has 5,000 drums of liquid chemicals. The foreman knows that 50 of these drums contain off-quality chemicals. Assume

that the drum is replaced each time before sampling. What is the probability that none of 3 drums he selects at random are off-quality?

Given that the drum is replaced each time before sampling, the selections are independent events. Then, the probability of the combined event is the product of each probability: (50/5000) * (50/5000) * (50/5000) = (1/100)^3 = 0.000001

Answer:

(\frac{99}{100} )^3

Explanation:

Given that A warehouse has 5,000 drums of liquid chemicals. The foreman knows that 50 of these drums contain off-quality chemicals.

Now first one drum is drawn

Prob that this drum is not off quality =4950/5000 =0.99

Next one drum is replaced.  This replaced may be mixed with others thus making probability for drawing off quality equal to 0.01 every time.

i.e. each trial is independent of the other

Hence prob that none of the drums  he selects at random are off-quality

=0.99x0.99x0.99

=(\frac{99}{100} )^3

How many carbon atoms are there in a diamond (pure carbon) with a mass of 55 mg ?
kari74 [83]
1 mol of Carbon = 12 grams.
x mol of Carbon = 55 grams

12*x = 1 * 55
x = 55/12
x = 4.583333 mols of carbon

1 mol of anything is 6.02 * 10^23 atoms
4.58333333 mol = x

1/4.5833333 = 6.02 * 10^23/x
x = 4.58333* 6.02*10^23
x = 2.7591 * 10^23 Carbon atoms

Calculate the maximum wavelength of light that will cause the photoelectric
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work function of potassium = 2.29 eV = 3.67 X 10⁻¹⁹ J

So the minimum energy of photon must be equal to 3.67 X 10⁻¹⁹ J .

energy of photon of wavelength λ = hc / λ

where h = 6.67  x 10⁻³⁴

c = 3 x 10⁸

Putting the values in the equation above

6.67  x 10⁻³⁴  x  3 x 10⁸ / λ =  3.67 X 10⁻¹⁹

λ  = 6.67  x 10⁻³⁴  x  3 x 10⁸ /  3.67 X 10⁻¹⁹

= 5.452 x 10⁻⁷

= 5452 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

= 5452 A .
