Problem 6: The networks Lab opens in the morning at 9:00 am. Students arrive at random for the Lab following a Poisson process with average rate A. Each student stays in the Lab for a random duration X. Students arriving when there is already a student in the Lab, wait outside in the corridor. Find the probability P that the second arriving student will have to wait and also find W, his/her mean waiting time, for the two cases (a) X = C constant; (b) X is exponentially distributed with mean .
