Complete Question

The weights of soy patties sold by a diner are normally distributed. A random sample of 15 patties yields a mean weight of 3.8 ounces with a sample standard deviation of 0.5 ounces. At the 0.05 level of significance,perform a hypothesis test to see if the true mean weight is  less than 4 ounce.

Answer:

Yes the true mean weight is less than 4 ounce

Explanation:

  From the question we are told that

     The random sample is n = 15

       The mean weight is \= x = 3.8\  ounce

        The standard deviation is  \sigma = 0.5 \ ounce

         The  level of significance is  \alpha  = 0.05

       

So

   The  null hypothesis is  H_o : \mu \ge 4

     The alternative hypothesis is H_a : \mu < 4

Generally the critical value which a bench mark to ascertain whether the null hypothesis is  true or false is mathematically represented as

            t_{0.05} = 1.79

This value is  obtained from  the critical value table

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

                Test \ Statistics (ST)  = \frac{\= x - \mu }{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }  }

           =>  ST = \frac{3.8 -4 }{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{20} } }

                ST = - 1.79

So since ST is less than t_{0.05}  then the null hypothesis would be rejected and the alternative hypothesis would be accepted so

  Thus the true mean weight is less than 4

Three cars, car x, car y, and car z, begin accelerating from rest, at the same time. car x is more massive than car y, which is
grigory [225]

When the net force exerted on each car is identical. after 10 seconds, the amount of momentum is same for all cars.

<h3>What is impulse?</h3>

The change in momentum is equal to the product of impact force applied while colliding and time for that impact.

F. t = m (Vf -Vi)

where, Vf is the final velocity and Vi is the initial velocity.

For car X, Fx x t = Mx Vx

For car Y, Fy x t = My Vy

For car Z, Fz x t = Mz Vz

The force applied is same for all and the the time is also same equal to 10 seconds. The impulse is same for all the cars.

Thus, the three cars have same momentum.

iron β is a solid phase of iron still unknown to science. The only difference between it and ordinary iron is that Iron β forms
saw5 [17]

Answer:

8.60 g/cm³

Explanation:

In the lattice structure of iron, there are two atoms per unit cell. So:

\frac{2}{a^{3} }  = \frac{N_{A} }{V_{molar} } where V_{molar}  = \frac{A}{\rho } an and A is the atomic mass of iron.

Therefore:

\frac{2}{a^{3} } = \frac{N_{A} * p }{A}

This implies that:

A = (\frac{2A}{N_{A} * p)^{\frac{1}{3} }  }

  = \frac{4}{\sqrt{3} }r

Assuming that there is no phase change gives:

\rho = \frac{4A}{N_{A}(2\sqrt{2r})^{3}   }

  = 8.60 g/m³

Einstein’s general theory of relativity made or allowed us to make predictions about the outcome of several experiments that had
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1. bending of light in gravitational fields.

2. effect of gravitational redshift.

3. perihelion precission of mecury.

Explanation:

1 bending of light in gravitational fields, we can think of it like this:

by noting the change in position s of stars as they pass near the sun on the celetial sphere, so since the sun creates a gravitational field even the star thats not in our line of side(behind the sun) can be seen because its light is bent.

2. effects of gravitational redshift:

this says that if you are in the gravitational field, your clock moves slower when it is seen by a distant observer.

3. perihelion precission of mecury:

according to Newtonian physics a two body system consisting of a lone orbiting the spherical mass would trace out an ellipse with the center of mass of the system as the focus but mercury deviates from that precission. then according to Einstein, the change in orientation of the orbital ellipsewithin its orbital plane is the effect of gravitation being mediated by the curvature of space-time.
