Prisoner’s dilemma. Two people are suspected of robbing a bank. They are being interrogated in separate rooms. If both stay silent, they can be conv icted of a lesser crime and sentenced to only 6 months. If one confesses (or “defects”) and the other does not, the confessor goes free as a reward for cooperating while the other suspect will be sent to prison for 10 years. If both defect, they each go to prison for 5 years. Create a payoff matrix from the point of view of Suspect #1. (Adopt the method from previous Mindscapes.)

Both descriptive and inferential techniques are covered ?arrow_forwardA mass is suspended by a spring such that it hangs at rest 0.5 m above the ground. The mass is raised 40 cm and released at time t = 0 s, causing it to oscillate sinusoidally. If the mass returns to the high position every 1.2 s, determine the height of the mass above the ground at t = 0.7 s. (include graph)arrow_forward
- At a certain ocean bay, the maximum height of the water is 4 m above mean sea level at 8:00 a.m. The height is at a maximum again at 8:24 p.m. Assuming that the relationship between the height, h, in metres, and the time, t, in hours, is sinusoidal, determine the height of the water above mean sea level at 10:00 a.m.(include graph)arrow_forwardA Ferris wheel of diameter 18.5 m rotates at a rate of 0.2 rad/s.
