The number of runway incursions is known to follow the binomial distribution. At a particular airport, the probability that a runway incursion will occur is 0.000002, or equivalently, a rate of 2 incursions per million operations (where ‘operations’ correspond to the number of take-offs and landings).
(a) Calculate the probability that there will be exactly 5 incursions in 2,000,000 operations. (b) If you were to interpret the given rate of 2 incursions per million operations as a failure rate, does the airport pass the 6-sigma requirement? Explain.

The traffic volume in the year 2018 at an airport (number of take-offs and landings) during peak hour of each day is a described as a log-normal random variable with a mean of 200 planes and a standard deviation of 60 planes. a. If the present runway capacity (for landings and take-offs) is 350 planes per hour, what is the current probability of congestion? [2 marks] b. If the mean traffic volume is increasing linearly at the annual rate of...

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
