Mohan post a letter to Sohan. It is known that one letter out of `10 `letters do not reach its destination. If it is certain that Sohan will reply if he receives the letter. If `A` denotes the event that the Sohan receives the letter and `B` denotes the event that Mohan gets a reply, then

A

`P(B)=(81)/(100)`

B

`P(AnnB)=(81)/(100)`

C

`P((A)/(barB))=(9)/(19)`

D

`P(AuuB)=(9)/(10)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C, D
`(a,b,c,d)` `P(A)=(9)/(10)`
`P(B)=P(AnnB)=(9)/(10)xx(9)/(10)=(81)/(100)`
`P((A)/(B))=(P(AnnbarB))/(P(barB))=((9)/(10)xx(1)/(10))/(1-(81)/(100))=(9)/(19)`
`P(AuuB)=P(A)+P(B)-P(AnnB)=(9)/(10)`

Consider the word POSSIBILITY. In the arrangement of the letters of the above word let A and B denote the event that the 2 S's are together and the 3I's are together respectively, then

In the picture given below, A and B represents the two different biomes. What does the letter C denotes? What will be its impact on the organisms in C. Explain with example.

a. The top of the atmosphere is at about 400 kV with respectto the surface of the earth, corresponding to an electric field that decreases with altitude. Near the surface of the earth, the field is about 100 Vm^(-1). Why then do we not get a electric shock as we step out of our house into the openy (Assume the house to be a steel cage so there is no field inside!) b. A man fixes outside his house one evening a two metre high insulating slab carrying on its top a large aluminium sheet of area 1m^(2) . Will he get an electric shock if he touches the metal sheet next morning? c. The discharging current in the atmosphere due to the small conductivity of air is known to be 1800A on an average over the globe. Why then does the atmosphere not discharge itself completely in due course and become electrically neutral? In other words, what keeps the atmosphere charged? d. What are the forms of energy into which the electrical energy of the atmosphere is dissipated during a lightning? (Hint: The earth has an electric field of about 100 Vm^(-1) at its surface in the downward direction, corresponding to a surface charge density =-10^(-9) Cm^(-2) ?.
