Answer:

The latest 2.5% of bills will be received in 20 more days after mail-out.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 31 days

Standard Deviation, σ = 6 days

We are given that the distribution of The number of days (X) is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(X \leq x) = 0.025

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.025

P(X \leq x) = 0.025

P( X \leq x) = P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 31}{6})=0.025  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P( z \leq -1.960) = 0.025

\displaystyle\frac{x - 31}{6} = -1.960\\x = 19.24 \approx 20  

Hence, the latest 2.5% of bills will be received in 20 more days after mail-out.

1. Two object accumulated a charge of
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

The  magnitude of the electric force  between these two objects

will be: 181.274 N.

i.e.  F  =181.274 N

Step-by-step explanation:

As

Two object accumulated a charge of  4.5 μC and another a charge of 2.8  μC.

so

q₁ = 4.5 μC = 4.5 × 10⁻⁶ C

q₂ = 2.8  μC = 2.8 × 10⁻⁶  C

separated distance = d = 2.5 cm

Calculating the magnitude of the force between two charged objects using the formula:

F = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

   =\:\frac{4.5\times \:\:10^{-6}\:\times \:\:2.8\:\times \:\:10^{-6}}{4\:\times \:\left(3.14\right)\:\times \:\left(8.85\times \:10^{-12}\right)\times \left(2.5\times \:\:10^{-2}\right)^2}

   =\frac{10^{-12}\times \:12.6}{10^{-12}\times \:4\times \:8.85\pi \left(10^{-2}\times \:2.5\right)^2}        ∵ 4.5\times \:10^{-6}\times \:2.8\times \:10^{-6}=10^{-12}\times \:12.6

   =\frac{10^{-12}\times \:12.6}{10^{-12}\times \:35.4\pi \left(10^{-2}\times \:2.5\right)^2}    ∵ \mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:4\times \:8.85=35.4

\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:10^{-12}

  =\frac{12.6}{35.4\pi \left(10^{-2}\times \:2.5\right)^2}

  =\frac{12.6}{0.025^2\times \:35.4\pi }        ∵ \left(10^{-2}\times \:2.5\right)^2=0.025^2

  =\frac{12.6}{0.022125\pi }        ∵ 35.4\pi\times 0.025^2=0.022125\pi

   =\frac{12.6}{0.06950 }

F  =181.274 N

Therefore, the  magnitude of the electric force  between these two objects will be: 181.274 N.

i.e.  F  =181.274 N
