Transcribed Image Text:

A two-runway (one runway for landing, one runway for taking off) airport is being designed for propeller-driven aircraft. The time to land an airplane is known to be exponentially distributed with a mean of 2 minutes. The airplane arrivals follow a homogeneous Poisson process with average interarrival time 2.5 minutes. a. Airplane landing at the airport can be modeled as a A. M/M/1 B. M/M/00 b. Find utilization, steady state average time in queue (W) and in system (W), steady state average number of airplanes in queue (L) and in system (L). C. M/G/1 queue. D. M/D/00 c. The airport would like to keep the time-weighted average number of aircraft (La) waiting in the sky to be 1 or less. Will they be able to achieve the goal if the arrival rate is reduced to 0.3 per minute?
