Suppose a project needs to hire 50 electricians. At the initial wage of 60K/year (including benefits) 480 are currently employed in the local area and 20 are estimated to be unemployed. The MEBT (marginal excess tax burden ) is 0.2. After electricians are hired for the project, the local wage increases to 65K/year and the number employed locally increases to 510.
a) Estimate the opportunity cost of hiring the workers.
b) Draw a diagram to illustrate.
c) Explain any assumptions you make

a)You have a galvanic cell set up like a Daniell cell but using a silver electrode in a silver nitrate solution and an iron electrode in an FeSO4 solution. Instead of a semipermeable membrane, you use a salt bridge. What is a salt bridge? Where is cathode and anode? What is the voltage under standard contitions? If the silver nitrate solution is 0.2 mmol/l and the FeSO4 solution is 3 mol/l, what is the voltage you measure? Compare to the previous result.

There are 5 alleles at the BXR008 locus. In a large sample from the population from which the suspects come, the frequencies of the alleles (starting from lowest to highest number of repeats) are;0.1,0.2,0.5,0.15,0.05; construct a table to calculate the matching probability and answer the following;
|
Number of repeats |
Frequency |

The amounts a soft drink machine is designed to dispense for each drink are normally distributed, with a mean of 11.9
fluid ounces and a standard deviation of 0.2 fluid ounce. A drink is randomly selected.
(a) Find the probability that the drink is less than 11.7 fluid ounces.
(b) Find the probability that the drink is between 11.6 and 11.7 fluid ounces.
(c) Find the probability that the drink is more than 12.3 fluid ounces.
Can this be considered an unusual event? Explain your reasoning.

A conducting bar is sliding to the right on two rails which are connect by a 15 LaTeX: \Omega resistor. The distance between the rails is L = 0.50 m. There is a uniform magnetic field with a magnitude of 0.80 T as shown in the figure. (a) Find the speed at which the bar must be moved to produce a current of 0.2 A in the resistor. Ignore the resistance in the rails and conducting bar. sa007-1.jpg (b) What is the direction of the induced magnetic field and induced current in the system? Explain reasoning.
