  consider the random walk problem. a drunk takes a step toward right with a probability p and a step toward left with a probability q 1- p. (assume a one dimensional road, and assume that successive steps are uncorrelated.) each step has a length 1. we showed in class that the probability that the drunk is at rm after n steps (starting at the origin) 1s n(m) = where nr is the number of steps toward right, and n1 = n-nr s the number of steps toward left, and m-nr- ni. we calculated in class that the means are (nr) = pn and 〈n1) = q (i) calculate the mean values (v ) and (n2) (iii) show that the variance 〈(nr-(nr))2〉 = 〈n訇))2. use above results to obtain the mean \v

A30 kg weight lies on top of a massless piston of area a = 0.01 m2 the exterior air is at a (constant) p =1 atm and t = 27 c. the interior gas is 0.4 moles of (ideal) n2 and it has initial temperature 27.00 degrees c. 1. what is the initial pressure in the interior? a. 29.4 kpa b. 130.7 kpa c. 101.3 kpa the next three questions concern what happens when an amount of heat q is slowly added to the interior, raising the piston by 1 mm and raising the interior temperature to 27.40 c
