Question:

What is the probability of randomly arranging the word CHALLENGING so that the first two letters are GG? Please explain. 

Answer:

Explanation of above question is provided below:
First two letters are GG which is fixed. So number of ways for first two letters = 2P2.
Now 9 letters are remaining which can be arranged in 9P9 ways. 
Total number of ways when first two letters are GG is multiplication of above two cases. 
To find probability we need total number of ways without any condition. 
Total number of ways = 11!
Then probability is calculated as shown below. 
Final answer of probability = 0.0182
If you have any queries regarding above solution then please comment below. Thank you!

Explain superposition theorem and use the principle of superposition to find the voltage Vo in the circuit

(Solved) An LVDT is connected to an amplifier of gain 250 the output terminals of which are connected to a 5 V voltmeter. The meter's scale can be read to 1/5th of a division and has 100 divisions in all. Given that a core displacement of 0.5 mm provides an output of 2 mV from the LVDT, find, 1. The sensitivity of the LVDT 2. The sensitivity of the whole system 3. The resolution of the instrument in centimeters

324 identical galvanic cells, each of internal resistance 9 ohm are arranged as several in series, groups of cell connected in parallel The arrangement has been laid out so that power output in an externally connected resistance of value 4 ohm is maximum. If n cells are connected in every series group that form parallel combination, then find value of n.
