In a smoking survey among boys between the ages of 12 and 17, \(78 \%\) prefer to date nonsmokers, \(1 \%\) prefer to date smokers, and \(21 \%\) dont care. Suppose seven such boys are selected randomly. Let \(X\) equal the number who prefer to date nonsmokers and \(Y\) equal the number who prefer to

The space between two concentric conducting spherical shells of radii b ! 1.70 cm and a ! 1.20 cm is filled with a substance of dielectric constant k 23.5. A potential difference V ! 73.0 V is applied across the inner and outer shells. Determine (a) the capacitance of the device, (b) the free charge

Introduction to Probability, 2
A motorist goes through 4 lights, each of which is found to be red with probability 1/2 . The waiting times at each light are modeled as independent normal random variables with mean 1 minute and standard deviation 1/2 minute. Let X be the total waiting time at the red lights. (a) Use the total proba

A certain microwave oven delivers 750. watts (J/s) of power to a coffee cup containing 50.0 g water at 25.08C. If the wavelength of microwaves in the oven is 9.75 cm, how long does it take, how many photons must be absorbed, to make the water boil? The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/8C ? g
