Question

The National Ignition Facility uses 6mm diameter pellets of deuterium (hydrogen with an extra neutron) cooled to 11 Kelvin as targets for it’s laser in an attempt to achieve nuclear fusion. Because of the massive energies involved, the targets must be constructed to a very high degree of accuracy. You sample 22 targets and their diameters are collected and stored in the spreadsheet.

(a) Construct a normal QQ-plot for this sample and interpret the results.

(b) State a null an an alternate hypothesis to test the claim that the target manufacturing process is performing to specifications.

(d) What sample size would be needed to reliably, with a probability of 80% or better, detect a deviation of 0.001mm from our null hypothesis?
