An ambulance travels back and forth, at a constant specific speed ?, along a road of length ?. We may model the location of the ambulance at any moment in time to be uniformly distributed over the interval (0, ?). Also at any moment in time, an accident (not involving the ambulance itself) occurs at a point uniformly distributed on the road; that is, the accidents distance from one of the fixed ends of the road is also uniformly distributed over the interval (0, ?). Assume the location of the accident and the location of the ambulance are independent. Supposing the ambulance is capable of immediate U-turns, compute the CDF and PDF of the ambulances travel time ? to the location of the accident.
Suppose Y is a continuous random variable drawn from the uniform distributionon the interval [3, 4], that is, Y ∼ Uniform([3, 4]). Conditioned on Y = y, a second randomvariable X is drawn from the uniform distribution on the interval [0, y]. What is fX(x), thepdf of X?
A projectile is launched at an angle theta with respect to the surface with velocity v0 (deterministic). If the angle of inclination is a uniform random variable in [0, pi/2 ], calculate the distribution function of the variable R defined as the point of impact of the projectile on the ground, measured from the origin. Also calculate your expected value

A certain explosive device will detonate if any one of n short-lived fuses lasts longer than .8 seconds. Let X, represent the life of the ith fuse. It can be assumed that each X, is uniformly distributed over the interval 0 to I second. Furthermore, it can be assumed that the X,'s are independent. (a) How many fuses are needed (i.e., how large should n be) if one wants to be 95 percent certain that the device will detonate? (b) If the device has nine fuses, what is the average life of the fuse that lasts the longest? .
