Realistic estimate of the probability of winning: 0.000004 (1/250‚000) Realistic estimate of the probability of losing : 0.999996 (1- 0.000004) Thus‚ the expected values for the two decision alternatives are: EV(d1) = 0.000004(300‚000) + 0.999996(-2) = 1.2 + (-1.999992) = -0.799992 EV(d2) = 0.000004(0) + 0.999996(0) = 0.00 Using the expected value approach‚ the optimal decision is to select decision alternative d2 which is not to purchase a lottery ticket with an expected monetary value of $0

Abstract: One is to determine the gap energy of cadmium sulfide semiconductor thin film using the equation: Eg = h.c/ is the signal of the long wavelength limit of the absorption peaks (measured in the lab). The reaction between cadmium sulfide and NH3‚ in the presents of thiourea yield a of 579(nm). The % error of the reaction is 1.24%. Introduction: There are 3 types of metals for electricity conducting: metallic conductor‚ semiconductor‚ and superconductor. Metallic conductors

NIGHT VISION TECHNOLOGY R.BHARATH GOUD 095D1A0406 ABSTRACT: Night vision is the ability to see in low light conditions. Whether by biological or technological means‚ night vision is made possible by a combination of two approaches: sufficient spectral range‚ and sufficient intensity range. Humans have poor night vision compared to many animals‚ in part because the human eye lacks a tapetum lucidum. Types of ranges: Spectral range: Night-useful spectral range techniques can sense radiation

Espana‚ Manila Philippines 1015 Abstract An unknown sample was given along with five standards to test the presence of oxygen in the sample. The unknown sample underwent five different chemical analysis namely Dichromate test‚ Tollen’s test‚ Lucas test‚ DNPH test‚ and Iodoform test. Each test will determine if the unknown sample will have the same reaction as to the standards‚ showing the identity of the compound. The unknown can be aldehyde‚ ketone‚ primary (1o)‚ secondary (2o)‚ or tertiary

The ratio of bore to stroke‚B/S for small engines is usually from 0.8 to 1.2. Stroke ratio In a reciprocating piston engine‚ the stroke ratio‚ defined by either bore/stroke ratio or stroke/bore ratio‚ is a term to describe the ratio between cylinder bore diameter and piston

In the story Gordimer’s shows how apartheid has become more than legislation; it has become a mentality that segregates and prejudges. More than just more than just the rear window of that truck separated Lucas and Van der Vyver. And in the end‚ just as Van de Vyver failed to acknowledge his son‚ the white community has
