A heavy rope, 40 feet long, weighs 0.3 lb/ft and hangs over the edge of a building 110 feet high. Let x be the distance in feet below the top of the building.
Find the work required to pull the entire rope up to the top of the building.


1. Draw a sketch of the situation.
We can look at this problem two different ways. In either case, we will start by thinking of approximating the amount of work done by using Riemann sums. First, let’s imagine “constant force changing distance.”

2. Imagine chopping the rope up into n pieces of length ∆x. How much does each little
piece weigh? (This is the force on that piece of rope. It should be the SAME for each
piece of rope.)
3. How far does the piece of the rope located at xi have to travel to get to the top of the
building? (Notice that this is DIFFERENT for each piece of rope; it depends on the
location of the piece.)
4. How much work is done (approximately) to move one piece of rope to the top of the
building?
5. Find the amount of work required to pull the entire rope to the top of the building,
using an integral.

Now, let’s do the same problem, but this time, imagining “constant distance, changing force.” Imagine pulling up the rope a little bit at a time, say, we pull up ∆x feet of rope with each pull.
6. After you have pulled up xi feet of rope, how much of the rope remains to be pulled?
7. What is the force on the remaining amount of rope?
8. Remembering that each pull moves the rope ∆x feet, how much work is done for each
pull?
9. Find the amount of work required to pull the entire rope to the top of the building,
using an integral.

3.  The following question involves a standard deck of 52 playing cards. In such a deck of cards there are four suits of 13 cards each. The four suits are: hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades. The 26 cards included in hearts and diamonds are red. The 26 cards included in clubs and spades are black. The 13 cards in each suit are: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King, and Ace. This means there are four Aces, four Kings, four Queens, four 10s, etc., down to four 2s in each deck.

You draw two cards from a standard deck of 52 cards without replacing the first one before drawing the second.

(a) Are the outcomes on the two cards independent? Why?

No. The probability of drawing a specific second card depends on the identity of the first card.

Yes. The probability of drawing a specific second card is the same regardless of the identity of the first drawn card.   

No. The events cannot occur together.

Yes. The events can occur together.

7. Consider the following scenario:

• Let P(C) = 0.2

• Let P(D) = 0.3

• Let P(C | D) = 0.4

  • Part (a)
    Find P(C AND D).

  • Part (b)
    Are C and D mutually exclusive? Why or why not?C and D are not mutually exclusive because
    P(C) + P(D) ≠ 1
    .C and D are mutually exclusive because they have different probabilities. C and D are not mutually exclusive because
    P(C AND D) ≠ 0
    .There is not enough information to determine if C and D are mutually exclusive.

  • Part (c)
    Are C and D independent events? Why or why not?The events are not independent because the sum of the events is less than 1.The events are not independent because
    P(C) × P(D) ≠ P(C | D)
    . The events are not independent because
    P(C | D) ≠ P(C)
    .The events are independent because they are mutually exclusive.

  • Part (d)
    Find P(D | C).

8. G and H are mutually exclusive events.

• P(G) = 0.5

• P(H) = 0.3

  • Part (a)
    Explain why the following statement MUST be false:
    P(H | G) = 0.4.
    The events are mutually exclusive, which means they can be added together, and the sum is not 0.4.The statement is false because P(H | G) =

P(H)

P(G)

  • = 0.6. To find conditional probability, divide
    P(G AND H) by P(H)
    , which gives 0.5.The events are mutually exclusive, which makes
    P(H AND G) = 0
    ; therefore,
    P(H | G) = 0.

  • Part (b)
    Find
    P(H OR G).

  • Part (c)
    Are G and H independent or dependent events? Explain

  • G and H are dependent events because they are mutually exclusive.

  • G and H are dependent events because

  • P(G OR H) ≠ 1.

  • G and H are independent events because they are mutually exclusive.

  • There is not enough information to determine if G and H are independent or dependent events.
