) We started a new production process and its study gave the total deviations The standard value (for 25 samples of the product, sample size 4) is .105 .Calculate the capacity of this process The product specification limits are: 6.30 = LSL 6.50 = USL Standard deviation in a manufacturing system is 0.038 = We made improvements to the system and the deviation has become Standard 0.030 = σ What is required is to calculate the estimated coefficient before and after the operation Optimization. What is your conclusion? : A find out the optimal solution: 1-Average Outgoing Quality AOQ 2- operating Characteristics Curve 100% Inspection 3-Acceptable Quality level 4- Average outgoing Quality AOQ 5- Capability Index CPK

Develop a rating curve for this stream at this section for use in estimating the discharge for a known gauge reading and fit a linear regression equation for use in estimation of stage for a known value of discharge. Use a value of 7.50 as the gauge reading corresponding to zero discharge. (20 pts) Equation 1 arith 2. What is the coefficient of correlation of the derived relationship? (10 pts) R2² arith Equation 2 log R2 log 3. Determine the stage for a discharge of 3500 cms (5 pts) 4. Determine the discharge for a stage of 15 m (5 pts) NB Do both arithmetic and logarithmic plots
Q2/ A (2m x 4 m) rectangular flexible foundation is placed above the ground surface (G.S) for two layers of clay, each layer 10 m thick. The modulus of Elasticity (E.) of the upper layer is 13 MN/m² and that of the lower layer is 15 MN/m². The Poisson ratio is (u, = 0.6) for the two layers. The pressure (stress) of 100 kN/m²is distributed along the surface of foundation. Determine the rigid immediate settlement at the corner of the foundation using Elastic theory method?
