Question Solved1 Answer 4. A student needs to get directly across a river that is 92 m wide. She is standing on the southern bank and has a boat that can travel at a speed of 4.0 m/s, but the current is travelling at 2.5 m/s [E]. [A-5] (a) What is the resultant velocity of the boat if she points it straight across the river? (b) How far downstream is she away from her destination after reaching the other bank of the river?

. The engineer of a passenger train traveling at 25.0 m/s sees a freight train whose caboose is 200 m ahead on the same track. The freight train is traveling at 15.0 m/s in the same direction as the passenger train. The engineer of the passenger train immediately applies the brakes, causing a constant acceleration of 0.100 m/s2in a direction opposite to the train’s velocity, while the freight train continues with constant speed. Take x = 0 at the location of the front of the passenger train when the engineer applies the brakes. (a) Will the cows nearby witness a  collision? (b) If so, where will it take place?

(15 points): Consider (again) the complex function G: C+C defined by 8 +2 G(8) 32 +63 + 18 (a) By hand, draw a pole-zero map of G (i.e., in the complex plane, draw a "o" to indicate points where G evaluates to zero and an "x" to indicate points where the magnitude of G tends to infinity).

The problem is Customers arrive at a tool crib according to a Poisson process of rate $\lambda = 5$ per hour. There is a single tool crib employee, and the individual service times are exponentially distributed with a mean service time of 10 minutes. In the long run, what is the probability that two or more workers are at the tool crib being served or waiting to be served? It is given that $\lambda = 5$, and I believe that $\mu = 6$ customers per hour. Then, I think the answer is $$1-\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)-\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^2 = \frac{125}{216}.$$ However, the answer in the back is $\frac{25}{36}$. I was wondering what I did wrong. Or is the answer in the back wrong? Thanks.
