In a set of experiments, a physicist makes multiple independent measurements of an electric field. In total, 1600 measurements are made, and we find that the standard deviation of the measurements is 2 V/m, and the mean is 100.0 V/m. Measured in Volts per metre, what is the width of the 95% confidence interval for the value of the field?

An experiment is conducted to compare the maximum load capacity in tons (the maximum weight that can be tolerated without breaking) for two alloys A and B It is Kknown that the two standard deviations in load capacity are equal at 7 tons each. The experiment is conducted on 50 specimens of each alloy (A and B) and the results are X = 75.8. X = 71.8, and X-X=4. The manufacturers of alloy A are convinced that this evidence shows conclusively that Hug and strongly supports the claim that their alloy is superior. Manufacturers of alloy 8 claim that the experiment could easily have given X-X 4 even if the two population means are equal. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. Click here to view page 1 of the standard normal distribution table. Click here to view page 2 of the standard normal distribution table. (a) Make an argument that manufacturers of alloy B are wrong. Do it by computing P(XA-XB41 PA-HB) P(XA-X > 4) - @

To compare the dry braking distances from 30 to 0 miles per hour for two makes of automobiles, a safety engineer conducts braking tests for 35 models of Make A and 35 models of Make B. The mean braking distance for Make A is 43 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.6 feet. The mean braking distance for Make B is 46 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.5 feet. At α=0.10, can the engineer support the claim that the mean braking distances are different for the two makes of automobiles? Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. The critical value(s) is/are Find the standardized test statistic z for μ1−μ2.
