A queueing system has one single server workstation that admits an infinitely long queue. The rate of arrival of jobs to the queue system follows the Poisson distribution with a mean of 5 jobs/hour. The service time of the server is exponentially distributed with a mean of 6 minutes. In steady state operation of the queue system, the probability that the server is not busy at any point in time is

In the pipe network shown in the figure, all pipes have the same cross-section and can be assumed to have the same friction factor. The pipes connecting points
,
, and
with point
have an equal length
. The pipe connecting points
and
has a length
. The pressures at the ends
,
, and
are equal. The flow rate in the pipe connecting
and

. Assume that the fluid flow is steady, incompressible, and the pressure losses at the pipe entrance and junction are negligible. Consider the following statements:I: The flow rate in pipe connecting
and
is
.II: The pressure difference between
and
is equal to the pressure difference between
and
