Aman walks across 3 main streets every morning on his way to work, and crosses the same 3 streets going home. each time he crosses the street, he is subject to being hit by a car, with probability 510−8 . we treat each crossing as independent with the same risk. a)assume he walks to work 200 days per year, for 20 years. what is the probability that he is hit by a car at least once? b)what about if there are 100 on the same walking schedule in a town. what is the probability that at least one is hit over that time frame.

Avolume of 2.65 m3 of air in a rigid, insulated container fitted with a paddle wheel is initially at 264 k, 5.6 bar. the air receives 432 kj by work from the paddle wheel. assuming the ideal gas model with cv = 0.71 kj/kg • k, determine for the air the amount of entropy produced, in kj/k

Consider airflow over a flat plate of length l = 1.5 m under conditions for which transition occurs at le = 0.9 m based on the critical reynolds number, re, e = 5 x 10. evaluating the thermophysical properties of air at 400 k, determine the air velocity. (hint: use the tables to find the properties of air)
