Water is siphoned from a large tank and discharges into the atmosphere through a 50-mm diameter tube. the end of the tube is b = 2.1 m below the tank bottom which is a = 7.4 m deep, and viscous effects are negligible. determine the maximum height h over which the water can be siphoned without cavitation occurring. atmospheric pressure is 101.4 kpa, and the water vapor pressure is 1.79 kpa (absolute)

The number of passengers who arrive at the platform of a subway station for the 10 am train is a random variable with a mean of 120 and a variance of 16. find the lower bound of the probability that there will be between 100 and 140 passengers (round off to second decimal place).
