An infinitely long solid insulating cylinder of radius a = 4.4 cm is positioned with its symmetry axis along the z-axis as shown. The cylinder is uniformly charged with a charge density p = 29 uC/m^3. Concentric with the cylinder is cylindrical conduction shell of inner radius b = 10.2cm and outer radius c= 12.2 cm. The conducting shell has a linear charge density = -0.33 uC/m.
1. What is Ey (R), the y-component of the electric field at point R, located a distance d =50cm from the original a long the y -axis is shown?
2. What is V(P)-V(R), the potential difference between points P and R? Point P is located at (x,y)= (50 cm, 50 cm)?
3. What is V(c)- V(a), the potential difference between the outer surface of the conductor and the outer surface of the insulator?
4. The charge density of the insulating cylinder is now changed to new value , p' and it is found that the electric fiel at point p is now zero. What is the value of p?

1. Interpret the results of the studies below.
a) A study was run to estimate the difference between UC students and CSU students in the proportion that work full-time. A random sample of 200 UC students had 42 that worked full-time. A random sample of 300 CSU students had 96 that worked full-time. Researchers found a 95% confidence interval of -0.187<PUC-PCSU<-0.033.
b) A study was run to determine if a new machine at a factory was less likely to produce flawed products than the old machine. A random sample of 200 products from the old machine had 11 flawed. A random sample of 200 products from the new machine had 9 flawed. Researchers set a significance level of 5% and found a p-value of 0.179.
2. Newborn males have a mean length of 49.9cm with a standard deviation of 1.9cm. Researchers plan to take a random sample of 50 newborn males. Find the shape, center, and spread for the sampling distribution.

The island fox, Urocyon littoralis, is endemic to the Channel Islands, which are located off the coast of southern California. Six of the eight Channel Islands support fox populations, and each of these islands is home to a distinct subspecies, as shown in the table below.
| Island | Subspecies | |
| Northern Channel Islands | Santa Cruz | U. l. santacruzae |
| Santa Rosa | U. l. santarosae | |
| San Miguel | U. l. littoralis | |
| Southern Channel Islands | San Nicolas | U. l. dickeyi |
| San Clemente | U. l. clementae | |
| Santa Catalina | U. l. catalinae |
The island fox shares a common ancestor with the gray fox, Urocyon cinereoargenteus, which is found on the mainland. Both species have similar coloration and a diploid chromosome number of 66. One structural difference between the two species is the reduced size of the island fox, a feature known as dwarfism. The various island subspecies also differ from each other in size, number of tail vertebrae, and other characteristics.
The phylogenetic tree below shows the evolutionary relationships between the island fox subspecies and the gray fox. Drag the labels to their appropriate locations on the tree.
First, drag the blue labels onto the blue targets to identify the common ancestors at the branch points.
Next, drag one white label onto the white target to identify the homologous characteristic.
Then, drag one pink label onto the pink target to identify the relationship between the two species.

1)A professor using an open-source introductory statistics book predicts that 60% of the students will purchase a hard copy of the book, 25% will print it out from the web, and 15% will read it online. She has 200 students this semester. Assuming that the professor's predictions were correct, calculate the expected number of students who read the book online.
2)The number of AIDS cases reported for Santa Clara County,
California is broken down by race in the table below.
Source: "HIV/AIDS Epidemiology Santa Clara
County", Santa Clara County Public Health Department, May
2011.
| Race | Cases |
| White | 2136 |
| Hispanic | 1122 |
| Black | 448 |
| Asian/Pacific Islander | 227 |
| Total | 3933 |
Directions: Conduct a chi-square test for
goodness-of-fit to determine whether or not the occurrence of AIDS
cases is consistent with the race distribution of Santa Clara
County.
| Race | Proportion | Expected cases |
| White | 0.424 | |
| Hispanic | 0.259 | |
| Black | 0.025 | |
| Asian/Pacific Islander | 0.292 | |

The resting surface charge density of a membrane is 0.5 uC/cm^2. The resting membrane potential is 0.5 V. It drops to 0 V in 5 ms. If there are 25 Na channels per um^2 that open up during depolarization, what is the average current that flows through a sodium channel during this time (5 ms)? How many sodium ions move through the channel in 5 ms?

When conducting a study, patients occasionally “crossover” to other portions of the study. List one intervention that may impact the patient after this crossover, how it might affect the results of the study, and which (if any) precautions need to be considered when finding crossover data. Additionally, explain a cohort study, and what types of diseases are best to study using a cohort.
