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.

An engineering drawing shows the: (A) dimensions, tolerances, cost, and sales or use volume of a component.(B) dimensions, toler
Leto [7]

Answer:

(B) dimensions, tolerances, materials, and finishes of a component.

Explanation:

An engineering drawing :

  An  engineering drawing is a technical drawing which draws the actual component .

An engineering drawing shows

1. Materials

2.Dimensions

3.Tolerance

4.Finishes of a component

Engineering drawing does not shows any information about the cost of component.

So the option B is correct.

R-134a vapor enters into a turbine at 250 psia and 175°F. The temperature of R-134a is reduced to 20°F in this turbine while its
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Δ enthalpy = -23 Btu/Ibm

Explanation:

Given data:

Pressure ( P1 ) = 250 psi

Initial Temperature ( T1 ) = 175°F

Final temperature ( T2 ) = 20°F

<u>Calculate the change in the enthalpy of R-134a </u>

From R-134 table

h1 = 129.85 Btu/Ibm

s1 = 0.23281 Btu/Ibm.R

note : entropy is constant  

hence ; s1 = s2

by interpolation  ; h2 = 106.95

Δ enthalpy = h2 - h1

                  =  ( 106.95 - 129.85 ) = -23 Btu/Ibm

leva [86]

Answer:

The note in this question is not an instrument that is negotiable under Article 3 of the U.C.C. Furthermore, it is not payable at any given time on demand due to the fact that principal repayment is not covered at a specified period of time. It shows that the acceleration clause is viable for the payment of the amount upon the default of the maker. This is also for an indefinite period of time.
