Textbook Question
Chapter 13, Problem 1SQ
Draw a simple circuit showing how a red pilot light is energized when a limit switch is operated by a moving object.
Expert Solution & Answer

To determine
Draw a simple circuit to show how a red pilot light is energized by a moving object.
Explanation of Solution
Limit switch is a device used to convert mechanical motion into an electrical signal to switch circuits.
Refer to Figure 1, which shows that the symbol of limit switch is in normally open condition.
When the moving object or moving machine strikes on the operating lever of the limit switch, then the position of the switch becomes normally closed condition. Therefore, the switch gets actuated and the red pilot light is energized.
Conclusion:
Thus, a simple circuit is drawn for a red pilot light by a moving object.

.. A factory has two machines, A and B. Machine A produces 60% of the parts, while Machine B
produces 40%. Machine A produces defective parts 5% of the time, while Machine B produces defective
parts 10% of the time. A randomly selected part from production is inspected.
a) Draw a tree diagram to represent the probability of getting a defective part.
b) What is the probability that a randomly selected part is defective?
c) If a part is found to be defective, what is the probability it came from Machine A?
A Factory produces light bulbs from two different machines: Machine A and Machine B. The
probability that a randomly selected light bulbs is from Machine A is 60%, and the probability that a light
bulb is defective is 5%. Suppose that probability that a light bulb is defective given that it was made by
Machine A is 0.05. Similarly, the probability that a light bulb is defective given that it was made by
Machine B is 0.03. Are the events “the light bulb is from Machine A” and “the light bulb is defective”
independent?
