Answer:

The probability of picking two consecutive purple marbles without replacement is 14.72%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, there are 4+6+2+8 = 20 total marbles.

The probability of picking a purble marble is

P_{1} = \frac{number of purple marbles}{number of total marbles}

P_{1}= \frac{8}{20} = 0.4

Since there are no replacements, there are now 19 total marbles, 7 of which are purple. So, the probability of picking another purple marble is

P_{2} = \frac{7}{19} = 0.368

The probability P of picking a purble marble(P_{1}), not replacing it, and then picking another purple marble(P_{2}) is:

P = P_{1}*P_{2} = 0.4*0.368  = 0.1472 = 14.72%

Answer:

4.75 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial height of the ball from the ground = 10 feet

Upward initial velocity given = 55 feet per second

Value of g ( acceleration due to gravity) = 32.2 feet per s²

Motion of the ball:

The ball first goes vertically upwards, gravity decelerates the body and it momentarily comes to rest at a point in its upward trajectory, which is the point of maximum height. From this point, to the ground, the ball behaves as a freely dropped body.

Till the ball reaches its maximum height:

u = + 55

v = 0 ( final velocity is zero)

a = - 32.2 (since it is deceleration)

we know that <em>v = u + at </em>

⇒    0 = 55 - 32.2t

⇒  t = 1.7 s

Also , we have <em>s = ut + (1/2)at²</em>

Here, s is the maximum height from the point where ball is thrown

So,     s = 55(1.7) - (0.5)(32.2)(1.7)(1.7)

⇒ s = 140 feet

So at a height of 140 feet + 10 feet (initial height) = 150 feet, the ball acts as a freely dropped body.

Here,      u = 0

               a = +32.2

               s= 150

<em>s = ut + (1/2)at²</em>

⇒  150 = 0.5 ( 32.2) (t²)

⇒  t² = 300/32.2 = 9.31

⇒ t = 3.05 sec

So total time = 1.7 + 3.05 = 4.75 seconds
