Avoiding an accident when driving can depend on reaction time. That time, measured in seconds from the moment the driver see dan

ger until they step on the brake pedal, can be described by the Normal model �(1.5, 0.18). (15 pts) a) What percent of drivers have a reaction time less than 1.35 seconds? b) What percent of drivers have a reaction time greater than 1.9 seconds? c) What percent of drivers have a reaction time between 1.45 and 1.75 seconds? d) Describe the reaction time of the slowest 10% of all drivers? (hint: the slower a person reacts, the higher their reaction time) e) In what interval reaction times do the middle 60% of all drivers fall

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

A normal model is represented as (μ, σ). Therefore for (1.5, 0.18), the mean (μ) = 1.5 and the standard deviation (σ) = 0.18

The z score shows by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given as:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) For x < 1.35 s

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{1.35-1.5}{0.18}=-0.83

From the normal distribution table, the percent of drivers have a reaction time less than 1.35 seconds = P(x < 1.35) = P(z < -0.83) = 0.2033 = 20.33%

b) For x > 1.9 s

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{1.9-1.5}{0.18}=2.22

From the normal distribution table, the percent of drivers have a reaction time greater than 1.9 seconds = P(x > 1.9) = P(z > 2.22) = 1 - P(z<2.22) = 1 - 0.9868 = 0.0132 = 1.32%

c) For x = 1.45

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{1.45-1.5}{0.18}=-0.28

For x = 1.75

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{1.75-1.5}{0.18}=1.39

From the normal distribution table, P(1.45 < x < 1.75) = P(-0.28 < z < 1.39) = P(z < 1.39) - P(z< - 0.28) = 0.9177 - 0.3897 = 0.528 = 52.8%

d) A percentage of 10% corresponds to a z score of -1.28

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.28=\frac{x-1.5}{0.18}\\\\x-1.5=-0.2034\\\\x=1.27

e) P(z < z1) - P(z< -z1) = 60%

P(z < z1) - P(z< -z1) = 0.6

P(z < -z1) = 1 - P(z < z1)

P(z<z1) - (1 - P(z < z1)) = 0.6

2P(z<z1) - 1= 0.6

2P(z<z1) = 1.6

P(z<z1) = 0.8

From the z table, z1 = 0.85

0.85=\frac{x-1.5}{0.18}and-0.85=\frac{x -1.5}{0.18}  \\\\x=1.65 \ and\ x=1.35

The reaction time between 1.35 and 1.65 seconds

How many moles of Chromium is in 4.41 ×10^24 atoms
zalisa [80]

7.32 moles of Chromium is present in 4.41 × 10²⁴ atoms.

<h3>How to find the number of moles ?</h3>

Number of moles = \frac{\text{Given number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's Number}}

     

<h3>What is Avogadro's Number ?</h3>

Avogadro's number is the number of particles in one mole of substance. 6.022 × 10²³ is known as Avogadro's Constant / Avogadro's Number.

Avogadro's Number = 6.022 × 10²³

Now put the values in above formula we get

Number of moles = \frac{\text{Given number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's Number}}

                             = \frac{4.41 \times 10^{24}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}

                             = 7.32 moles

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that 7.32 moles of Chromium is present in 4.41 × 10²⁴ atoms.

Q: What statement describes plants in northern and southern states during the summer season? During the summer, the plants in no
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The plants in the northern and southern states during the summer receive the most sunlight and experience a growth period.

Explanation:

The plants in the northern and southern states during the summer receive the most sunlight and experience a growth period because in the summer season, plants receive more solar radiation as compared to winter season. Plant needs more solar radiation for higher growth. Photosynthesis is the process which helps the plant to produce more vegetation and this will only happens when the sunlight is high so we can say that summer season enables the plant to have more vegetative growth.
