Amaser is a laser-type device that produces electromagnetic waves with frequencies in the microwave and radio-wave bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. you can use the radio waves generated by a hydrogen maser as a standard of frequency. the frequency of these waves is 1,420,405,751.786 hertz. (a hertz is another name for one cycle per second.) a clock controlled by a hydrogen maser is off by only 1 s in 100,000 years. for the following questions, use only three significant figures. (the large number of significant figures given for the frequency simply illustrates the remarkable accuracy to which it has been measured.) (a) what is the time for one cycle of the radio wave? (b) how many cycles occur in 1 h? (c) how many cycles would have occurred during the age of the earth, which is estimated to be 4.6×109 years? (d) by how many seconds would a hydrogen maser clock be off after a time interval equal to the age of the earth? by how many seconds would a hydrogen maser clock be off after a time interval equal to the age of the earth

The weights of bags filled by a machine are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.05 kilograms and a mean that can be set by the operator. at what level should the mean weight be set if it required that only 1% of the bags weigh less than 9.5 kilograms? round the answer to 2 decimal places.
