6.27 In tests of stopping distances for automobiles, those automobiles traveling at 30 miles per hour before the brakes are applied tend to travel distances that appear to be uniformly distributed between two points a and
b. Find the probability that one of these automobiles a stops closer to a than to b.
b stops so that the distance to a is more than three times the distance to b.

I have recently received the degree of PhD. In Physics by the Universidade Federal do Maranhão after spending a term in Durham University, as I have been awarded a scholarship from a Brazilian mobility program. During my PhD. I have performed research mainly in Theoretical Physics and published works in distinguished Journals (check my ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4324-1184).
During my BSc. I have been awarded a scholarship to study for a year in the University of Evansville, where I have worked in detection-analysis of photon correlations in the the Photonics Laboratory. There I was a tutor in Electromagnetism, Classical Mechanics and Calculus for most of that year (2012).
I am very dedicated, honest and a fast learner, but most of all, I value a job well done.
