Answer:

a) 0.0007326

b) 0.03223

c) 0.2418

d) 0.2418

Explanation:

To find different probabilities for the selection of components among eleven good and four defective components, we will use the Combination.

a) C(4,4) = 1; C(15,4) = 1365

P = \frac{C(4,4)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{1}{1365} = 0.0007326

b) C(4,3) = 4; C(11,1) = 11

P = \frac{C(4,3)*C(11,1)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{4*11}{1365} = 0.03223

c) C(4,2) = 6; C(11,2) = 55

P = \frac{C(4,2)*C(11,2)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{6*55}{1365} = 0.2418

d) C(11,4) = 330

P = \frac{C(11,4)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{330}{1365} = 0.2418

Calculate the rate of heat conduction through a layer of still air that is 1 mm thick, with an area of 1 m, for a temperature of
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The rate of heat conduction through the layer of still air is 517.4 W

Explanation:

Given:

Thickness of the still air layer (L) = 1 mm

Area of the still air = 1 m

Temperature of the still air ( T) = 20°C

Thermal conductivity of still air (K) at 20°C = 25.87mW/mK

Rate of heat conduction (Q) = ?

To determine the rate of heat conduction through the still air, we apply the formula below.

Q =\frac{KA(\delta T)}{L}

Q =\frac{25.87*1*20}{1}

Q = 517.4 W

Therefore, the rate of heat conduction through the layer of still air is 517.4 W

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

a) α=7.9x10^-4 rad

b) θ=1.12x10^-4 rad

c) The Earth and the Moon cannot be seen without a telescope.

Explanation:

In this exercise we will use the concepts of angular resolution, which depends on both the wavelength of the rays and the diameter of the eye or lens on the meter. Its unit of measure is the radian. The attached image shows the solution step by step.

You are an astronaut in space far away from any gravitational field, and you throw a rock as hard as you can. The rock will:
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

the rock will continue at the same speed unless it is affected by another force such as gravity and so if you threw it it will continue to move unless affected by a force

Explanation:

this is because Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.
