The tensile strength of a metal part is normally distributed with mean 40 pounds and standard deviation 5 pounds. If 50,000 part

s are produced, how many would you expect to fail to meet a minimum specification limit of 35-pounds tensile strength? How many would have a tensile strength in excess of 48 pounds?

Answer:

a) how many would you expect to fail to meet a minimum specification limit of 35-pounds tensile strength?

7933 parts

b) How many would have a tensile strength in excess of 48 pounds?

2739.95 parts

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.

a) how many would you expect to fail to meet a minimum specification limit of 35-pounds tensile strength?

z = (x-μ)/σ

x = 35 μ = 40 , σ = 5

z = 35 - 40/5

= -5/-5

= -1

Determining the Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<35) = 0.15866

Converting to percentage = 15.866%

We are asked how many will fail to meet this specification

We have 50,000 parts

Hence,

15.866% of 50,000 parts will fail to meet the specification

= 15.866% of 50,000

= 7933 parts

Therefore, 7933 parts will fail to meet the specifications.

b) How many would have a tensile strength in excess of 48 pounds?

z = (x-μ)/σ

x = 48 μ = 40 , σ = 5

z = 48 - 40/5

z = 8/5

z = 1.6

P-value from Z-Table:

P(x<48) = 0.9452

P(x>48) = 1 - P(x<48)

1 - 0.9452

= 0.054799

Converting to percentage

= 5.4799%

Therefore, 5.4799% will have an excess of (or will be greater than) 48 pounds

We are asked, how many would have a tensile strength in excess of 48 pounds?

This would be 5.4799% of 50,000 parts

= 5.4799% × 50,000

= 2739.95

Therefore, 2739.95 parts will have a tensile strength excess of 48 pounds

A jar has 16 marbles, 10 green, 2 blue, 4 red. what is the probability of randomly choosing a red marble then without putting it
marta [7]

The probability of drawing a red marble and then a green marble is:

P = 1/6.

<h3>How to find the probability?</h3>

In the jar we have a total of 16 marbles, such that:

  • 10 are green.
  • 2 are blue
  • 4 are red.

First, the probability of getting a red marble is give by the quotient between the number of red marbles and the total number of marbles:

p = 4/16 = 1/4

Now we need to draw a green one, the probability is computed in the same way, but this time there are 15 marbles, because we already took one.

q = 10/15

The joint probability (first drawing red, then green) is given by the product between the individual probabilities:

P = p*q = (1/4)*(10/15) = 10/60 = 1/6

Two particles are fixed to an x axis: particle 1 of charge -1.00 x 10-7 C is at the origin and particle 2 of charge +1.00 x 10-7
r-ruslan [8.4K]
The electric field strength at any point from a charged particle is given by E = kq/r^2 and we can use this to calculate the field strength of the two fields individually at the midpoint. 

The field strength at midway (r = 0.171/2 = 0.0885 m) for particle 1 is E = (8.99x10^9)(-1* 10^-7)/(0.0885)^2 = -7.041 N/C and the field strength at midway for particle 2 is E = (8.99x10^9)(5.98* 10^-7)/(0.0935)^2 = <span>-7.041 N/C
</span>
Note the sign of the field for particle 1 is negative so this is attractive for a test charge whereas for particle 2 it is positive therefore their equal magnitudes will add to give the magnitude of the net field, 2*<span>7.041 N/C </span>= 14.082 N/C
