4.131 Errors in measuring the time of arrival of a wave front from an acoustic source sometimes have an approximate beta distribution. Suppose that these errors, measured in microseconds, have approximately a beta distribution with a = 1 and ß = 2. What is the probability that the measurement error in a randomly selected instance is less than .5 µs? b Give the mean and standard deviation of the measurement errors. a
