The distance advanced in a day by a tunnel boring machine, in meters, is uniformly distributed on the interval (32, 50). Find the mean distance. The mean distance is
Solution :
Given that,
a = 32
b = 50
USING uniformly distributION FORMULAS
mean = (a + b) / 2
=32+50/2
=41

Braking distance for some automobiles is uniformly distributed with mean 15 ft and variance 12ft2. Find the probability that the braking distance for an automobile would not exceed 11 ft.
The number of workplace accidents occurring in a factory on any given day is Poisson distributed with mean λ. The parameter λ is a random variable that is determined by the level of activity in the factory and is uniformly distributed on the interval [0,3]. Calculate the provability of one accident on a given day.
John walks at a speed (miles/hr) that is uniformly distributed on the interval [A,B], where A is uniformly distributed on the interval [0,2] and B is uniformly distributed on the interval [1,3]. The distance between John's apartment and school is 1.5 miles. What is the expected time that John will spend on the road on his way back to his apartment?
