Complete question:

new concrete mix is being designed to provide adequate compressive strength for concrete blocks. The specification for a particular application calls for the blocks to have a mean compressive strength µ greater than 1350 kPa. A sample of 100 blocks is produced and tested. Their mean compressive strength is 1356 kPa and their standard deviation is 70 kP

a) Find the p value.

b) Do you believe it is plausible that the blocks do not meet the specification, or are you convinced that they do? Expain your reasoning.

Answer:

a) p-value= 0.1949

b) It is possible the blocks do not meet the specifications

Explanation:

Given:

n = 100

Sample mean, X' = 1356

Standard deviation, s.d = 70

a) To find p- value.

Null hypothesis:

H0: u ≤ 1350

Alternative hypothesis:

H1 : u > 1350

The test statistic wll be:

z= \frac{X'-u_o}{s.d/ \sqrt{n}}

= \frac{1356-1350}{70/\sqrt{100}}

=0.86

The p value will be:

= P(z>0.86)

= 1-P(z≤0.86)

Using the normal distribution table, we now have:

1 - 0.8051

= 0.1949

P value = 0.1949

b) Since our p-value is 0.1949, we do not reject the null hypothesis, because the p-value, 0.1949, is not small. This means that it is possible the blocks do not meet the specifications.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

La velocidad del sonido en el aire (a una temperatura de 20 ºC) es de 343 m/s. La ecuación creada por Newton y posteriormente modificada por Laplace que permite obtener la velocidad del sonido en el aire teniendo en cuenta la variable de la temperatura es "331+(0,6 x Temperatura)".

The radiator of a car is a type of heat exchanger. Hot fluid coming from the car engine, called the coolant, flows through alumi
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

(A) The correct answer is option (B) three halves that of the old unit.

(B) The answer is three fourth that of old unit

Explanation:

from the relation;

(A) Fromthe expression;

K = Qd/AΔT

Anew = 3/2 A(old)

(B)

K¹ = 2K(old), so we get

A(old) = A(old)/2

Combining with part A, we have;

Anew = 3/2 *A(old)/2

          = 3/4A(old)

The answer is three fourth that of old unit

15) A 1720 kg car accelerates at a rate of 3.0 m/s2. How much force is the car's engine producing? (use the formula F=ma
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 5160 N</h3>

Explanation:

To find the force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration we use the formula

<h3>Force = mass × acceleration</h3>

From the question

mass = 1720 kg

acceleration = 3.0 m/s²

We have

Force = 1720 × 3

We have the final answer as

<h3>5160 N</h3>

Hope this helps you
