Separation of Variables:
Let v(t) be the velocity, in knots per hour, of a vessel at time
t, t = 0. After the second engine is turned on, its velocity
satisfies the differential equation ??/??=3?+22, with initial
condition v (0) = 2.
First use separation of variables to find an expression for v in
terms of t. Secondly, f the vessel cruising speed is 25 knots per
hour, how long will the vessel take to reach this speed?

A copper, Cu(s), electrode is immersed in a solution that is
1.00 M in ammonia, NH3, and 1.00 M in tetraamminecopper(II),
[Cu(NH3)4]^{2+}. If a standard hydrogen electrode is used as the
cathode, the cell potential, Ecell, is found to be 0.075 V at 298
K.
Half reaction of Cu = .337 V
Half reaction of H = .000 V
Based on the cell potential, what is the concentration of Cu^{2+}
in this solution?
[Cu2+]____ with units

Using the following reduction potentials:
I2(s) + 2e- <---> 2I-(aq) E0 = 0.535 V
I2 (aq) +2e- <---> 2I-(aq) E0 = 0.620 V
I3-(aq) + 2e- <---> 3I-(aq) E0 = 0.535 V
a) Calculate the equilibrium constant for I2(aq) + I-(aq) <---> I3-(aq)
b) Calculate the equilibrium constant for I2(s) + I-(aq) <---> I3-(aq)
c) Calculate the solubility (g/L) of I2(s) in water.

Students enter the bathroom according to a Poisson process at a rate of 7.5 arrivals per minute.
What is the probability that exactly 46 students enter between 3:00 and 3:05?
Given that 6 students enter the bathroom between 4:00 and 4:01, what is the probability that exactly 36 students enter between 4:00 and 4:07?

Read the following scenario describing a research project, and then write a short criticism of this project. You should clearly identify at least four aspects of the project which you believe are incorrect or poor. These may relate to the research question, the experimental design, the analysis and reporting, and/or any ethical or academic misconduct issues. For each criticism which you identify, clearly describe the problem and state how it should have been addressed to improve the quality of the research.
A company providing on-line teaching software claims that
students who are on-line
students achieve better results on learning programming languages
than on campus students. The company has developed a hypothesis
based on this claim. The company chose one university to conduct
research to test this hypothesis. It applied for research ethics
clearance and at the same time included both on-line and on campus
students to participate in this experiment.
At the end of semester, all students undertook the same test on
programming languages. The company used final scores of all
students to test its hypothesis. The company has published a report
in which it concludes “the average score of 67 for on-line students
is higher than the average score of 65.5 for on campus students,
and so we can conclude that on-line students achieve better results
in learning programming languages than on campus students.
Therefore, this teaching method should be used for all students in
future.”

Which of the following scenarios would it be appropriate to use a normal approximation for the sampling distribution of the sample proportion?
Select one:
A researcher wishes to find the probability that more than 60% of a sample of undergraduate students from UNC will be female. She samples the first 42 students that walk into the gym on Monday morning. The population proportion of undergraduate females at UNC is known to be 60.1%.
A researcher wishes to find the probability that less than 5% of a sample of undergraduate students from Appalachian State University will be between the ages of 25 and 34. He randomly samples 50 undergraduate students from the student database. The proportion of undergraduates between the ages of 25 and 34 is 5.3%.
A grad student at NC state wants to know how likely it is that a group of students would be made up of more than 27% graduate students. She will randomly select 38 students and ask them if they are a graduate student or an undergraduate student. The population proportion of grad students at NC state is 26.6%.
A full-time student at Fayetteville State University wants to know how likely it is that a group of students would be made up of less than 70% full-time students. She will ask 30 people that she sees parking in the parking deck if they are full-time or part-time. The population of full-time students at Fayetteville State is known to be 72%.
