"Time headway" in traffic flow is the elapsed time between the time that one car finishes passing a fixed point and the instant that the next car begins to pass that point. Let X = the time headway for two randomly chosen consecutive cars on a freeway during a period of heavy flow. The pdf of X is the following. f(x) =

0.15e−0.15(x − 0.5) x ≥ 0.5
0 otherwise
(a) What is the probability that time headway is at most 7 sec? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(b) What is the probability that time headway is more than 7 sec? At least 7 sec? (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
more than 7 sec
at least 7 sec

(c) What is the probability that time headway is between 6 and 7 sec? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
