Question

Arrivals to an airport are all directed to the same runway. At a certain time of the day, these arrivals form a Poisson process with rate 30 per hour. The time to land an aircraft is a constant 90 seconds. Determine LQ, (only number can be given 1.54 or 1.765)

Step 1

Since the arrival rate is 30 per hour, we convert this to seconds: \[ \text{Arrival rate} = \frac{30 \text{ arrivals}}{3600 \text{ seconds}} = \frac{1}{120} \text{ arrivals per second} \] Show more…
