Question:
When solar panels rated at 250 watts of power are manufactured, the power of the panels is not exactly 250 watts, but is Normally distributed with a mean of 250 watts and a standard deviation of 7.5 watts. When solar panels are connected together in series on a roof, the power generated is limited by the panel with the least power. For example, if three panels of 240 watts, 250 watts, and 260 watts are connected in series, the total power is NOT 240 + 250 + 260 = 750 watts. Instead, it is 3 × 240 = 720 wattsA corner store stocks Maclean’s magazine and on average 4.5 customers purchase the magazine each month. The store owner orders six copies of the magazine each month. What is the probability of running out of stock? (limited by the 240-watt panel). We need to connect eight panels together in series on a roof. What is the probability that the total power generated will be less than 1920 watts?
