A bag consists of 10 balls each marked with one e digits 0 to 9. If four balls are drawn successively with replacement from the bag, what is the probability that none is marked with the digit 0?

A point source is emitting 0.2 W of ultravio- let radiation at a wavelength of lambda = 2537 Å . This source is placed at a distance of 1.0 m from the cathode of a photoelectric cell. The cathode is made of potassium (Work function = 2.22 eV ) and has a surface area of 4 cm^(2) . (a) According to classical theory, what time of exposure to the radiation shall be required for a potassium atom to accumulate sufficient energy to eject a photoelectron. Assume that radius of each potassium atom is 2 Å and it absorbs all energy incident on it. (b) Photon flux is defined as number of light photons reaching the cathode in unit time. Calculate the photon flux. (c) Photo efficiency is defined as probability of a photon being successful in knocking out an electron from the metal surface. Calculate the saturation photocurrent in the cell assuming a photo efficiency of 0.1. (d) Find the cut – off potential difference for the cell.

On one page of a telephone directory , there were 200 telephone numbers . The frequency distribution of their unit place digit (for example , in the number 25828573 , the unit place digit is 3 ) is given in the following table . {:("Digit",0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9),("Frequency",22,26,22,22,20,10,14,28,16,20):} Without looking at the pencil is placed on one of these numbers, i.e., the number is chosen at random. What is the probability that the digit in its unit place is 6 ?
