A spring with a mass of 2 kg has a damping constant 14 kg/s. A force of 3.6 N is required to keep the spring stretched 0.3 m beyond its natural length. The spring is stretched 0.7 m beyond its natural length and then released. Find the position of the mass at any time t. (Assume that movement to the right is the positive x-direction and the spring is attached to a wall at the left end.) What is x(t)?

There is a quiz show that is composed of three rounds. A contestant solves Question 1 first and if she gets the right answer, then she will move on to next round to answer Question 2, and if she also answers correctly, then she will go to final round to answer Question 3. If she fails to answer correctly, then she is not allowed to go on to the next round. The probability that she knows the answer to Question 1 is 0.9, to Question 2 is 0.8 and to Question 3 is 0.7. What is the probability that she will win this quiz show?

(a) 0.504

(b) 0.56

(c) 0.7

(d) 0.72 15.

Given that she did not win this quiz show, what is the conditional probability that she failed to answer Question 2?

(a) 0.3571

(b) 0.3629

STUDY BELOW
Most major cities in Asia have one stand out classic luxury hotel. Singapore has the Raffles, Bangkok has the Oriental, Hong Kong has the Peninsula, Rangoon has the Strand and Penang has the Eastern & Oriental. In Kuala Lumpur (KL), The Majestic is a hotel that was built in 1932 on a site facing KL’s famous old moghul-style railway station. The German Consul’s official residence and gardens used to occupy this plot until World War 1.
The hotel was once the top hotel in town and hosted many swanky parties and glamorous wedding
receptions. Famous actors, singers, artists and writers used to stay here.
A separate annex is set aside for smokers with its own bar, a pool table, private dining room, a card room and a cigar lounge. They also have a screening room which is a mini-cinema with comfy armchairs. A unique feature of the hotel is the Orchid Conservatory with its beautiful selection of orchids. There is also a Drawing Room and a Reading Room which both look wonderful.
As you would expect of a hotel of this standard, they have a luxurious spa with its own swimming pool overlooking the railway station. There is another swimming pool for hotel guests.
Having said that, it is within walking distance of top tourist attractions like the Old Railway Station, the State Mosque, the Islamic Arts Museum, Police Museum and, somewhat further, the Lake Gardens.
The hotel provides shuttle buses (or “luxury coaches” as the hotel calls them) for guests to KL Sentral and Starhill Gallery (Bukit Bintang), so getting around should not be a problem.
