A new electronic component for aircraft is tested to withstand temperatures as low as -50°F. One engineer suggests that the device cannot actually stand temperatures that low. What are the Type I and Type II errors?
Type I: The device CAN NOT withstand temperatures as low as -50F but the engineer incorrectly finds that it CAN.Type II: The device CAN withstand temperatures as low as -50F but the engineer incorrectly finds that it CAN NOT.
Type I: The device CAN withstand temperatures as low as -50F but the engineer incorrectly finds that it CAN NOT.Type II: The device CAN NOT withstand temperatures as low as -50F but the engineer incorrectly finds that it CAN.
Is the answer the first or second bullet point?
A temperature measurement system has the following specifications:
-128 to 781°C
Range
Linearity error
0.29% FSO
Hysteresis error
0.12% FSO
Sensitivity error
0.04% FSO
Zero drift
0.32% FSO
FSO stands for "Full Scale Output". Estimate the overall instrument
uncertainty for this system based on the available information. Use the
maximum possible output range over the FSO in your computations.

- A beginner reliability engineer did not realize that the failures of the system should be grouped by type instead of having them in one group. The system was observed to fail because of two types of failures: electrical (E) and mechanical (M). The failure data for E are 316, 138, 87, 923, 921, 1113, 1152, 577, 480, 1401 The data for M are 746, 1281, 1304, 1576, 1386, 671, 2106, 660, 1149, 425 The true data for E comes from an exponential distribution with mean = 1000 h, and the data for M comes from Weibull with γ = 2 and θ = 1000. a.
