The highway police in a certain state are using aerial surveillance to control speeding on a highway with a posted speed limit of 55 miles per hour. Police officers watch cars from helicopters above a straight segment of this highway that has large marks painted on the pavement at 1-mile intervals. After the police officers observe how long a car takes to cover the mile, a computer estimates that cars speed. Assume that the errors of these estimates are normally distributed with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 3.58 miles per hour.
a. The state police chief has directed his officers not to issue a speeding citation unless the aerial units estimate of speed is at least 66 miles per hour. What is the probability that a car travelling at 61 miles per hour or slower will be cited for speeding?
Round your answer to four decimal places.
The probability that a car travelling at 61 miles per hour or slower will be cited for speeding is ______
b. Suppose the chief does not want his officers to cite a car for speeding unless they are 99% sure that it is travelling at 61 miles per hour or faster. What is the minimum estimate of speed at which a car should be cited for speeding?

8.16 LAB: Mileage tracker for a runner
Given the MileageTrackerNode class, complete main() to insert nodes into a linked list (using the InsertAfter() function). The first user-input value is the number of nodes in the linked list. Use the PrintNodeData() function to print the entire linked list. DO NOT print the dummy head node.
Ex. If the input is:
3 2.2 7/2/18 3.2 7/7/18 4.5 7/16/18
the output is:
2.2, 7/2/18 3.2, 7/7/18 4.5, 7/16/18

b. If you determine that the reaction is first order in A and first order in B, fill out the table below with the rate you would expect for each of the conditions you described in part a. (You will have to copy the conditions from part a to the new table.)

c. What is the rate equation for the reaction?
d. What is the value of the rate constant? Be sure to include appropriate units.
e. If the reaction is zero order in A and 2nd order in B, fill out the table with the rates you would expect.

f. What is the rate equation for the reaction?
g. What is the value of the rate constant? Be sure to include appropriate units.
2. How would you determine the initial rates of the reaction experimentally? What measurements would you record and how would you treat the data?
3. Lets say you have a new reaction and you think that the reaction has a rate equation: Rate = k[A]2
However, you only have one set of [A] vs time data. Describe how you would determine what the rate equation is from this one set of data.
4. For a first order reaction, graph the concentration of reactant A ([A]) vs time. On this same graph indicate two half-life time periods. (That is show where the concentration falls by one half, for two time periods).
5. The carbon-14 decay rate of a sample obtained from a young live tree is 0.260 disintegrations/(s·g). Another sample prepared from an archaeological excavation gives a decay rate of 0.186 disintegrations/(s·g). The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. What is the age of the object?
