Let \(p(y)\) denote the probability function associated with a Poisson random variable with mean \(\lambda\) a. Show that the ratio of successive probabilities satisfies \(\frac{p(y)}{p(y-1)}=\frac{\lambda}{y}\), for \(y=1\), 2,.... b. For which values of is \(p(y)>p(y-1)\)? c. Notice that the resul

Electron in a well. Figure 24- 65 shows electric potential V along an x axis. The scale of the vertical axis is set by Vs 8.0 V. An electron is to be released at x ! 4.5 cm with initial kinetic energy 3.00 eV. (a) If it is initially moving in the negative direction of the axis, does it reach a turnin

A typical prokaryotic cell has about 3,000 genes in its DNA, while a human cell has about 20,500 genes. About 1,000 of these genes are present in both types of cells. Based on your understanding of evolution, explain how such different organisms could have this same subset of genes. What sorts of fun
