Define the terms sample size, random sampling, population, and lot size.
Define the terms sample size, random sampling, population, and lot size.
Explanation of Solution
Sample size: As the name suggests, it is essentially the quantity of parts in a sample that need to be inspected. To obtain information about properties of the complete population, parts that are included in the sample are studied.
Random sampling: In this, a sample is selected from a given population where the all the items have equal probability of getting selected.
Population: It is also called universe and it includes the total number of parts that are similar from which a sample is selected.
Lot size: It is the subset of the population where more than one lot can be included in the subsets. They can be reflect the population.

- The data shown in Table 1 are the deviations from nominal diameter for holes drilled in a carbon-fiber composite material used in aerospace manufacturing. The values reported are deviations from nominal in ten-thousandths of an inch. (a) Set up and R charts on the process. Is the process in statistical control? (b) Estimate the process standard deviation using the range method. (c) If specifications are at nominal ±100, what can you say about the capability of this process? Calculate the PCR Cp Table 1.
