In rural Ireland, a century ago, the students had to form a line. The student at the front of the line would be asked to spell a word. If he spelled it correctly, he was allowed to sit down. If not, he received a whack on the hand with a switch and was sent to the end of the line. Suppose that a student could spell correctly 70% of the words in the lesson. What is the probability that the student would be able to sit down before receiving four whacks on the hand? Assume that the master chose the words to be spelled randomly and independently.

Two nodes (A and B) are on the same network, and distanced by 500-meter. The two nodes are connected via 3 switches, each with a delay of 5 µs. Suppose that both of A and B transmit 1500 bytes at the same exact time and their frames collide. A chooses to retransmit immediately after jam signal is received, and B chooses to retransmit after 50 µs of receiving the jam signal. Assume the transmission speed is 10 Mbps, the channel is CSMA/CD with backoff intervals that are multiples of, the jam signal takes 10 µs to transmit, and the inter-frame gap is 9.6 µs. Find the time required to deliver A’s packet to B
