Question:
3.3. Suppose that upon striking a plate a single electron is transformed into a number N of electrons, where N is a random variable with mean p.
and standard deviation o. Suppose that each of these electrons strikes a second plate and releases further electrons, independently of each other and each with the same probability distribution as N. Let Z be the total number of electrons emitted from the second plate. Determine the mean and variance of Z.
