Question

A confidence interval is desired for the true average stray-load loss for a certain type of induction motor when the line current is held at 10 amps for a speed of 1500 rpm. Assume that the stray-load loss is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 3.0. Compute a 95% confidence interval when n=25 and the sample mean is 58.3. What is the upper value of this confidence interval?

 

Compute a 95% confidence interval when n=100 and the sample mean is 58.3. What is the upper value of this confidence interval?

 

Compute a 99% confidence interval when n=100 and the sample mean is 58.3. What is the lower value of this confidence interval?

 

Compute an 82% confidence interval when n=100 and the sample mean is 58.3. What is the lower value of this confidence interval?

 

How large must n be if the width of the 99% confidence interval is to be 1.0.
