Consider two independent experiments testing for two different and independent genetic mutations in rabbits. •

•Experiment A: Tests 12 rabbits for a mutation that occurs with probability 0.1. Let X be the number of these rabbits w/ this mutation.

• Experiment B: Tests 16 rabbits for a mutation that occurs with probability 0.25. Let Y be the number of these rabbits w/ this mutation.

(a) Compute P(X ≤ 6)

(b) Compute P(10 ≤ Y ).

(c) Compute the joint probability P(X = 4, Y = 6).

(d) Compute the joint probability P(X ≤ 3 and Y ≤ 4).

Consider an infinite sequence of independent experiments, where in each experiment we take k balls, labeled 1 to k, and randomly place them into k slots, also labeled 1 to k, so that there is exactly one ball in each slot. For the nth experiment, let Xn be the number of balls whose label matches the slot label of the slot into which it is placed. So X1, X2, . . . is an infinite sequence of independent and identically...

Consider the experiments. Experiment 1: A study is done to determine which of two fuel mixtures allows a rocket to travel farther over a period of time. Rocket A, which requires additional equipment to keep it stable, is used to test one fuel mixture, and rocket B is used to test the other. Both rockets are identical aside from their mass. The results indicate that rocket B traveled farther than rocket A over the same period of time. Experiment 2:...

In two different experiments exactly 5 grams of fuel burns (combusts). The first experiment is under constant pressure conditions, and the second separate experiment is under constant volume conditions. Which experiment is in a coffee cup calorimeter? And which is in a bomb calorimeter? One experiment produces 25 kJ of heat and one experiment produces 23 kJ of heat. Which experiment (the constant pressure one or the constant volume one) produces 25 kJ of heat and which produces 23 kJ...

. Xeroderma pimentosum is a genetic disease involving mutations in any one of eight different genes encoding proteins/enzymes involved in UV-induced DNA damage repair. a. How does UV produce mutations in DNA? b. As knocking out 8 genes at the same time is close to impossible to accomplish in the lab, how were these 8 individual genes identified?

Consider the following experiment: we roll a fair die twice. The two rolls are independent events. Let’s call M the number of dots in the first roll and N the number of dots in the second roll. (a) What is the probability that both M and N are even? (b) What is the probability that M + N is even? (c) What is the probability that M + N = 5? (d) We know that M + N = 5....

Why is the Frank Hertz experiment different from the photoelectric effect?  For common Blackbody experiments, the Hg lamp used is nearly white, made up of several intense spectral lines.  Why is the Franck?hertz emission primarily blue?  Does this correspond to the expected energy loss?
