Problem 15-27 Gubser Welding, Inc., operates a welding service for construction and automotive repair jobs. Assume that the arrival of jobs at the company's office can be described by a Poisson probability distribution with an arrival rate of two jobs per 8-hour day. The time required to complete the jobs follows a normal probability distribution, with a mean time of 3.2 hours and a standard deviation of 2 hours. Answer the following questions, assuming that Gubser uses one welder to complete all jobs:
What is the mean arrival rate in jobs per hour? If required, round your answer to two decimal places.
What is the mean service rate in jobs per hour? If required, round your answer to four decimal places.
What is the average number of jobs waiting for service? If required, round your answer to three decimal places.
What is the average time a job waits before the welder can begin working on it? If required, round your answer to one decimal place.
What is the average number of hours between when a job is received and when it is completed? If required, round your answer to one decimal place. hours
What percentage of the time is Gubser's welder busy?

Write a few sentences addressing each of these prompts.
In your own words, what is the difference between electric force, electric field, and electric charge? You may find it easier to describe how the three concepts are related.
If two charges are observed to repel one another, what can you say about the sign of each? What if the two attract one another? With only this information (whether they attract or repel) can you identify which charge is which type (positive or negative)? What does this mean about the assignment of “positive” or “negative” charge?
In a very contrived situation, two students are discussing the following problem.
“A point charge of 2 μC is placed in an electric field and experiences a force of 27 N. Find the electric field. The 2 μC charge is removed and replaced with a 4 μC charge. What is the electric field now?”
One student insists the field is 13.5 N/C in both cases and the other says it is 13.5 N/C in the first case and 6.75 N/C in the second case. Why might each student take their stated position and which one is correct? Provide an argument based on the physics that could help the incorrect student see their error.
