A sensor is used to monitor the performance of a nuclear reactor. The sensor accu-rately reflects the state of the reactor with a probability of .97. But with a probabilityof .02, it gives a false alarm (by reporting excessive radiation even though the reac-tor is performing normally), and with a probability of .01, it misses excessive radia-tion (by failing to report excessive radiation even though the reactor is performing abnormally). (a) What is the probability that a sensor will give an incorrect report, that is, either a false alarm or a miss?

Aboat radioed a distress call to a coast guard station. at the time of the call, a vector a from the station to the boat had a magnitude of 45.0 km and was directed 15.0° east of north. a vector from the station to the point where the boat was later found is = 30.0 km, 15.0° north of east. what are the components of the vector from the point where the distress call was made to point where the boat was found? in other words, what are the components of vector c = b - a?
