Answer:

E(x) = 1.43 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of camera = 7

Defective camera = 5

Sample selected = 2

Computation:

when x = 0

P(x=0) = 2/7 × 1/6 = 2/42

P(x=1) = [2/7 × 5/6] + [5/7 × 2/6] = 20/42

P(x=2) = 5/7 × 4/6 = 20/42

So,

E(x) = [0×2/42] + [1×20/42] + [2×20/42]

E(x) = 1.43 (Approx)

A large storage tank, open to the atmosphere at the top and filled with water, develops a small hole in its side at a point 10.4

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Therefore the diameter of the hole is $1.94 \times 10^{-3}$ m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bernoulli's equation,

$P_1+\frac12 \rho v^2_1+\rho g h_1= P_2+\frac12 \rho v^2_2+\rho g h_2$

P₁ = P₂= atmospheric presser

$\rho$ = density

$\frac12 \rho v^2_1+\rho g h_1= \frac12 \rho v^2_2+\rho g h_2$ [since P₁ = P₂]

$\Rightarrow\rho (\frac12 v^2_1+ g h_1)= \rho(\frac12 v^2_2+ g h_2)$

$\Rightarrow\frac12 v^2_1+ g h_1= \frac12 v^2_2+ g h_2$

$\Rightarrow\frac12 v^2_2-\frac12 v^2_1=g h_1- g h_2$

$\Rightarrow v^2_2- v^2_1=2g h$ [ $h_1-h_2=h$ ]

Here $v_1\approx 0$

$\Rightarrow v^2_2=2g h$

$\therefore v_2=\sqrt {2gh$

Here g= 9.8 m/s² , h = 10.4 m

The velocity of water that leaves from the hole $v_2$ = $\sqrt {2\times 9.8\times 10.4}$ m/s

=14.28 m/s.

Given, the rate of flow from the leak is $2.53\times 10^{-3}$ $m^3/min$

$=\frac{2.53\times 10^{-3}}{60}$ $m^3/s$

Let the diameter of the hole be d.

Then the cross section area of the hole is $=\pi (\frac d2)^2$

We know that,

The rate of flow = Cross section area × speed

$\Rightarrow \frac{2.53\times 10^{-3}}{60} =\pi (\frac d2)^2\times 14.28$

$\Rightarrow (\frac d2)^2=\frac{2.53\times 10^{-3}}{60\times 14.28\times \pi}$

$\Rightarrow d= 1.94 \times 10^{-3}$

Therefore the diameter of the hole is $1.94 \times 10^{-3}$ m.

A round swimming pool has a circumference of 66 feet Carlos snags to buy a rope or put across the diameter of the pool the rope

lina2011 [118]

The circumference of a circle is the diameter times pi. So, 66 ft = pi x d. 66 divided by pi is roughly 21, so the diameter is 21 ft. 21 + 4 = 25. 25 x $0.45 = $11.25
