5. The lifetime, L hours, of a battery has a normal distribution with mean 18 hours and
standard deviation 4 hours.

Alice’s calculator requires 4 batteries and will stop working when any one battery reaches
the end of its lifetime.
(a) Find the probability that a randomly selected battery will last for longer than 16 hours.
(1)
At the start of her exams Alice put 4 new batteries in her calculator.
She has used her calculator for 16 hours, but has another 4 hours of exams to sit.
(b) Find the probability that her calculator will not stop working for Alice’s remaining exams.
(5)
Alice only has 2 new batteries so, after the first 16 hours of her exams, although her
calculator is still working, she randomly selects 2 of the batteries from her calculator and
replaces these with the 2 new batteries.
(c) Show that the probability that her calculator will not stop working for the remainder
(3)

After her exams, Alice believed that the lifetime of the batteries was more than 18 hours.
She took a random sample of 20 of these batteries and found that their mean lifetime was
(d) Stating your hypotheses clearly and using a 5% level of significance, test Alice’s belief.

Figure 3
A plank, AB, of mass M and length 2 , rests with its end A against a rough vertical wall.
The plank is held in a horizontal position by a rope. One end of the rope is attached to the plank
at B and the other end is attached to the wall at the point C, which is vertically above A.

A small block of mass 3M is placed on the plank at the point P, where AP = x.
The plank is in equilibrium in a vertical plane which is perpendicular to the wall.
3
The angle between the rope and the plank is , where tan , as shown in Figure 3.

The plank is modelled as a uniform rod, the block is modelled as a particle and the rope
is modelled as a light inextensible string.

(3)
The magnitude of the horizontal component of the force exerted on the plank at A by the
Mg.
(b) Find x in terms of .
(2)
The force exerted on the plank at A by the wall acts in a direction which makes an
angle with the horizontal.
(c) Find the value of tan
(5)
The rope will break if the tension in it exceeds 5 Mg.
(d) Explain how this will restrict the possible positions of P. You must justify your
answer carefully.

Figure 4
A boy throws a ball at a target. At the instant when the ball leaves the boy’s hand at the
point A, the ball is 2 m above horizontal ground and is moving with speed U at an angle
above the horizontal.
In the subsequent motion, the highest point reached by the ball is 3 m above the ground.
The target is modelled as being the point T, as shown in Figure 4.
The ball is modelled as a particle moving freely under gravity.

Using the model,

(2)
The point T is at a horizontal distance of 20 m from A and is at a height of 0.75 m above
the ground. The ball reaches T without hitting the ground.
