Please explain in the problem below how a) λ was obtained and b) what went wrong with the Poisson approximation.Thank you Example 5.8. It is known that of 313.6 million of US population, about 200 million have high-speedInternet access at home. Thus the population proportion of high-speed Internet users is 0.6378. Suppose1500 people are randomly selected. What is the probability that at least 1000 of those responding to thesurvey have high-speed Internet access?Solution. We interpret 0.6378 proportion as p and a sample of 1500 people selected for the survey as asample of 1500 independent Bernoulli trials, so that X = X₁ + ... + X1500 € [B(1500, 0.6378)] givesthe number of those in the surveyed sample who have high-speed Internet access. Thus, we areinterested to find 1200) 0.6378 0.36221500-kNow the above is a computational challenge. The normal approximation, due to the Central LimitTheorem (to be explored in Chapter V, section 2), would be a remedy. Alternatively, we can use Rlanguage to compute the above probability precisely. The procedure will be as follows.P{X > 1000} = 1− P{X < 1000} = 1 − P{X ≤ 999}P{X ≥ 1000} = 150implyingk=1000> 1-pbinom (999,1500,.6378)[1] 0.01042895which readsP{X > 1000} = 0.01042895.Here pbinom (999,1500,.6378) calculates999Σ (¹500) 0.6378* 0.3622¹500-kNow if we use the Poisson approximation with λ = 956.7 (why?) we arrive at> 1-ppois(999,956.7)[1] 0.08395288The result significantly differs from that of direct binomial. The student needs to explain thediscrepancy. (See Problem 5.6.)

Compute the gradients of each of the following functions: o = xyz & = ln [(x² - y²)-¹/2] r = || = √√√x² + y² + x² 1/r Note: Remember that your tutorial has Hints in it, at the end of each chapter. If you're stuck, they are often quite useful! • If the answer is a scalar, you can just type it in the box (using the Calcpad if you like, or using / for fractions, ^ for exponents, shift and - for subscripts, etc.) For multiplication, you can either leave a space, or use *. So x*x=xx= x², Note that this is not the same as xx without a space; that will get read as an entirely different variable! • If you need to enter a vector, enter an ordered list of components, so for A you can enter either A = (A₂, Ay, A₂) = {A₂, Ay, A₂}. Note that the system isn't great with multiplying through by overall factors, so it's better not to write e.g. Vo= V = Vr = V= (2A, 2A, 2A₂).

d) Because the particle is stuck inside the well, the quadratic is only valid when 0 ≤ x ≤ 1. Outside the well, f(x) = 0. Update f(x) by writing it as a piece-wise function with this new information. The diagram below might be helpful. you can just say f(x) = ax2 +bx+c for the quadratic section. e) We call f(x) the quantum wave function; however, f itself doesn’t tell us much about the particle’s behavior. Instead, physicists use f(x) 2 = (f(x))2 = f(x)·f(x) since it is proportional to the probability of finding the particle near that x-value. Using your answer from part (d), find f(x) 2 .
