What elements make up nickel coins?

In the U.S. the nickel component of coins is actually an alloy of 75% copper and 25% nickel so "nickels" are actually mostly copper! Dimes, quarters, and halves have a pure copper core with the same 75/25 alloy on the outside layers to give them a silvery appearance. Taken together that means the whole coin is around 85+ % copper. Other countries use different proportions of nickel and copper. For example, Canadian coins from the 1970s to the 1990s were pure nickel, while British 20p coins are about 80% copper.


How much is the buffalo nickel with a penis worth?

The buffalo nickel with a penis made in 1913-1938, can be taken to 'most' banks and they will take the nickel, and hand you a $20 bill for every nickel you have that fits the criteria..ie: date, nickel, penis.


A bag A conatins 5 dimes and 2 quarters and bag B contains 1 dime and 3 quartersIf a coin is taken from one of the two bags at random what is the probability that the coin is a quarter?

Now the 2 bags contain a total of 6 dimes and 5 quarters, which is a total of 11 coins. Therefore, the probability of getting a quarter is (5/11) which is about 0.4545.... or 45.45% as the case may be. Hope this helps

What is the probability that if you flip a coin it will land on its edge?

Although the probability of this event is greater than zero, it is so very small that for all intents and purposes it is taken to be zero.


When was silver taken out of nickels?

The term Silver War Nickels refers to those produced by the United States Mint from mid-1942 to 1945. These nickels differ from those minted before and after World War II, as those were made from 56% copper, 35% Silver and 9% manganese.In WWII, The United States had to use 56% Copper, 35% Silver, and 9% Manganese. The dates for these 35% silver nickels are 1942(P,S) (NOT D), 1943(P,D,S), 1944(P,D,S), and 1945(P,D,S). The mint marks on these coins are located above the dome of Monticello.Contrary to popular misunderstanding, these are the only US nickels that ever contained silver. The rest are all made of an alloy of 25% nickel and 75% copper.


What is the probability density of the wave function?

See related link, In quantum mechanics, a probability amplitude is a complex number whose modulus squared represents a probability or probability density. For example, the values taken by a normalised wave function ψ are amplitudes, since |ψ(x)|2 gives the probability density at position x. Probability amplitudes may also correspond to probabilities of discrete outcomes.


Why do you think is probability used as basis for inferential statistics?

Inferential statistics are used in situations where it can be assumed that random behaviour(s), subject to the mathematical laws of probability, must be taken into account.
