An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. The seat was designed for pilots weighing between 130 lb and

171 lb. the new population of pilots has normally distributed weights with a mean of 137 lb and a standard deviation of 27.7 lb.
A.) if a pilot is randomly selected, find the probability that his weight is between 150 lb and 201 lb.
The probability is approximately__________. (round to four decimal place as needed.)
B.) If 39 different pilots are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean weight is between 150 lb and 201 lb.
The probability is approximately__________. (round to four decimal place as needed.)
C) When redesigning the ejection seat which probability is more relevant

Answer:

hi the figures for the weight of the pilots under consideration is wrong the correct weights are 150 lb and 201 lb

  • 0.0665
  • 0.0106
  • part A

Explanation:

A) probability that a pilot's weight is between 150 lb and 201 lb

i.e P( p 150 ≤ x ≤ p 201 )

p ( 150 ) = \frac{150 - mean}{standard deviation} = \frac{150 - 137}{27.7}  = 0.4693

p ( 201 ) = \frac{201 - mean}{standard deviation} = \frac{201 - 137}{27.7} = 2.3104

P ( p(150) ≤ x ≤ p(201) ) = (2.3104 - 04693) /  standard deviation

                                     = 1.8411 / 27.7 = 0.0665

B) probability if 39 different pilots are selected randomly and their mean weight is between 150 lb and 201 lb

i.e P( p(150) ≤ x ≤ p(201) )

p ( 150 ) = \frac{150 - mean }{standard deviation * \sqrt{39} }  = \frac{13}{27.7* \sqrt{39} } =  \frac{13}{172.9864} = 0.0752

p ( 201 ) = \frac{201-137}{standard deviation * \sqrt{39} } = \frac{64}{172.9864} = 0.3700

P ( p(150) ≤ x ≤ p(201) ) = (0.3700 - 0.0752) / 27.7 = 0.0106

part A is considered because an infinite number of pilots are considered

Answer:

A.) 0.3088

B.) 0.0017

C.) part A

Explanation:

A.)

z1= \frac{\left(150-137\right)}{27.7}=0.4693

z2=\frac{\left(201-137\right)}{27.7}=2.3105

P(0.4693

B.)

z1=\frac{150-137}{27.7/ \sqrt{39}} =2.9309\\z2=\frac{201-137}{27.7/ \sqrt{39}}=14.4289

\\P(2.9309

C.) Since the seat performance for an individual pilot is more important than 39 different pilots.

Dmitrij [34]

Complete Question

The cars of a roller-coaster ride have a speed of 19.0 km/h as they pass over the top of the circular track. Neglect any friction and calculate their speed v when they reach the horizontal bottom position. At the top position, the radius of the circular path of their mass centers is 21 m, and all six cars have the same mass.V = -18 m What is v?X km/h

Answer:

v=23.6m/s

Explanation:

Velocity v_c=18.0km/h

Radius r=21m

initial velocity uu=19=>5.27778

Generally the equation for Angle is mathematically given by

\theta=\frac{v_c}{2r}

\theta=\frac{18}{2*21}

\theta=0.45

\theta=25.7831 \textdegree

Generally

Height of mass

h=\frac{rsin\theta}{\theta}

h=\frac{21sin25.78}{0.45}

h=20.3m

Generally the equation for Work Energy is mathematically given by

0.5mv_0^2+mgh=0.5mv^2

Therefore

v=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}

v=\sqrt{=5.27778^2+2*9.81*20.3}

v=23.6m/s

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Q=15.7Kw

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Initial Pressure P_1=4bar

Initial Temperature T_1=20 C

Final Pressure  P_2=12 bar

Final Temperature T_2=80C

Work Output W= 60 kJ/kg

Generally Specific Energy from table is

At initial state

 P_1=4bar \& T_1=20 C

 E_1=262.96KJ/Kg

With

Specific Volume V'=0.05397m^3/kg

At Final state

 P_2=12 bar \& P_2=80C

 E_1=310.24KJ/Kg

Generally the equation for The Process is mathematically given by

 m_1E_1+w=m_2E_2+Q

Assuming Mass to be Equal

 m_1=m_1

Where

 m=\frac{V}{V'}

 m=frac{0.06666}{V'=0.05397m^3/kg}

 m=1.24

Therefore

 1.24*262.96+60)=1.24*310.24+Q

 Q=15.7Kw

The modulus of elasticity for a ceramic material having 6.0 vol% porosity is 303 GPa. (a) Calculate the modulus of elasticity (i
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

modulus of elasticity for the nonporous material is 340.74 GPa

Explanation:

given data

porosity = 303 GPa

modulus of elasticity = 6.0

solution

we get here  modulus of elasticity for the nonporous material Eo that is

E = Eo (1 - 1.9P + 0.9P²)    ...............1

put here value and we get Eo

303 = Eo ( 1 - 1.9(0.06) + 0.9(0.06)² )  

solve it we get

Eo = 340.74 GPa
