Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A structural engineer must calculate the load on a beam that is assumed to be uniformly distributed between 500 lbs and 1000 lbs. What is the expected load on the beam?

💡 Hint: Use the expected value formula.

Challenge 2 Hard

If a truck load is uniformly distributed between 0 and 2000 kg, how would you confirm if this assumption is valid given real-world data?

💡 Hint: Consider using statistical software for data visualization.
