A type of capacitor has resistances that vary according to a normal distribution, with a mean of 600 mega ohms and a standard de
viation of 150 mega ohms. A certain application specifies capacitors with resistance of between 850 and 1000 mega ohms. What proportion of these capacitors will meet this specification?

Specifications dictate values should be between 900 and 1,000 megohms.
The first person has to travel 200m at 2 m/s. It will take him 200/2=100 seconds to reach the gate. The second person is moving towards the gate at 2 + 3 meters per second so it will take her 200/5 = 40 seconds to reach the gate. Therefore, person #1 needs an extra 100-40 = 60 seconds.
