Given that the total power contained in the AM signal is 1000W and the percentage modulation is 100%.
Let P_c be the power transmitted on the carrier frequency and P_s be the power transmitted on each of the sidebands.

The total power in an AM signal can be expressed as:
P_{\text{total}} = P_c + P_s + P_s

Since the percentage modulation is 100%, the maximum amplitude of the modulated signal is twice the carrier amplitude. Therefore, the power transmitted on each sideband is half the total power in the modulated signal.
Thus, the total power can be expressed as:
1000 = P_c + \frac{1}{2}P_{\text{total}} + \frac{1}{2}P_{\text{total}}
1000 = P_c + 2\left(\frac{1}{2}P_{\text{total}}\right)

Solving for P_c:
1000 = P_c + P_{\text{total}}
P_c = 1000 - 500 = 500W

Solving for P_s:
P_s = \frac{1}{2}P_{\text{total}} = \frac{1}{2}(1000) = 500W

Therefore, the power transmitted on the carrier frequency is 500W and the power transmitted on each of the sidebands is 500W.

\boxed{P_c = 500W, \, P_s = 500W}

A box of numbered pens has 12 red, 12 blue, 12 green and 12 yellow pens. The pens for each colour are numbered from 1 to 12. There is a unique number on each pen, so no pen is exactly the same as any other pen in the box. When reaching into the box to randomly draw five pens without replacement, what is the proportion of getting exactly four pens of the same colour (Note: the numbers matter but the order does not)?
Engineers want to design seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit ​95% of all males.​ (Accommodating 100% of males would require very wide seats that would be much too​ expensive.) Men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.4 in. and a standard deviation of 1.2 in. Find P95. That​ is, find the hip breadth for men that separates the smallest ​95% from the largest 5​%.

We plan to test whether the mean mRNA expression level differs between two strains of yeast, for each of 8,000 genes. We will measure the expression levels of each gene, in n samples of strain 1 and m samples of strain 2. We plan to compute a P-value for each gene, using an unpaired two-sample t-test for each gene (the particular type of test does not matter). a) What are the null hypotheses in these tests (in words)? [2] b) If, in fact, the two strains are identical, how many of these tests do we expect to produce a P-value exceeding 1/4? [2]
