2-kg mass travels twice as far as the 4 kg mass before stopping. To calculate the distance the object will slide one can use the work-energy theorem that states that the work done to a system is equal to the system’s change in energy. Here‚ the object starts with kinetic energy [KE = (mv^2)/2] and friction brings it to rest by doing an equivalent amount of work. Work is‚ in this case‚ the product of the force of friction and the distance the object slides while coming to rest. Therefore‚ the distance

Problem 1 A gas station with only one gas pump employs the following policy: if a customer has to wait‚ the price is $3.50 per gallon; if they don’t have to wait‚ the price is $4.00 per gallon. Customers arrive according to a Poisson process with a mean rate of 20 per hour. Service times at the pump have an exponential distribution with a mean of 2 minutes. Arriving customers always wait until they can by gasoline. Determine the expected price of gasoline per gallon. Problem 3 The Old Colony theme
