Three 16.75-g Styrofoam balls of radius 2 cm are coated with carbon black to make them conducting and then are tied to 1.13-m-long threads and suspended freely from a common point. Each ball is given the same charge, q. At equilibrium, the balls form an equilateral triangle with sides of length 29.06 cm in the horizontal plane. Determine the absolute value of q.

Three white and three black balls are distributed in two urns in such a way that each contains three balls. We say that the system is in state i,i = 0, 1, 2, 3, if the first urn contains i white balls. At each step, we draw one ball from each ufn and place the ball drawn from the first urn into the second, and conversely with the ball from the second urn. Let Xq denote the state of the...

Three white and three black balls are distributed in two urns in such a way that each contains three balls. We will say that the system is in state i, i = 0, 1, 2, 3, if the first urn contains i, white balls. At each step, we draw one ball from each urn – the ball drawn from the first urn is placed into the second, and the ball from the second urn is placed into the first. Let...

Suppose we have a sack with 2 red balls and 2 black balls, and we draw balls without replacement until the second red ball is drawn. Describe the random variable ? = "the number of balls drawn". Describe by giving the range, probability distribution, expected value, standard deviation, and variance.

Urn A contains four white balls and three black balls. Urn B contains six white balls and seven black balls. A ball is drawn from Urn A and then transferred to Urn B. A ball is then drawn from Urn B. What is the probability that the transferred ball was white given that the second ball drawn was white? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) I can't seem to figure this out! Please help! Thank you!
