An unbiased coin is tossed repeatedly until the outcome of two successive tosses is the same. Assuming that the tails are independent, the expected number of tosses are

A random bit string of length n is constructed by tossing a fair coin n times and setting a bit to 0 or 1 depending on outcomes head and tail, respectively. The probability that two such randomly generated strings are not identical is:

An examination paper has 150 multiple-choice questions of one mark each, with each question having four choices. Each incorrect answer fetches-0.25 mark. Suppose 1000 students choose all their answers randomly with uniform probability. The sum total of the expected marks obtained all these students is

A point is randomly selected with uniform probability in the X-Y plane within the rectangle with corners at
(0, 0), (1, 0), (1, 2) and (0, 2). If p is the length of the position vector of the point, the expected value of $${p^2}$$ is
