ANSWER GIVEN

Transcribed Image Text:Consider a sample of needle shaped particles with square cross-section of 5 μm x 5 μm and
length varying between 20 µm and 200 µm. The differential frequency distribution (number
based) for the particle length x is as follows:
qn(x)
{
for x ≤ 20 μm
0.00556 μm-1 for 20 μm < x≤ 200 μm
0
for x > 200 μm
0

(b) Calculate the cumulative frequency distribution Qn(x) for the particle length and tabulate
values of Qn for the following set of particle lengths: 10, 100, and 1000 μm.
Sketch the graph of Qn(x), properly indicating ranges of values and corresponding units.
(c) Calculate the number weighted average length and the length weighted average length of
the particles in the sample.
