1. Electrical Unit Failure Analysis

An electrical unit consists of four components, each subject to failure. We observe this unit at a specified time to determine which components are working and which have failed. What is the sample space associated with this random experiment?

Let: 7TVxAAAAMklEQVQYV2NgIAVwMwoKMQlyMzIASQEg denote working, and 7TVxAAAAOElEQVQYV2NgQAdCrExAIVE2fm4gJcgO denote failed.

The sample space is:
