Answer: 55 ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of heater (v) = 110-volt

Current drawn by heater (I) = 2.0 amperes

resistance of the heater (r) = ?

Since voltage, current and resistance are involved, apply the formula for ohms law.

Voltage = current x resistance

i.e v = ir

where r = v / i

r = 110 volts / 2.0 A

r = 55 ohms

Thus, the resistance of the heater is 55 ohms

A machine is designed to fill jars with 16 ounces of coffee. A consumer suspects that the machine is not filling the jars comple

babunello [35]

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 16$

Alternative hypothesis : $\mu$

b) $t=\frac{15.6-16}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{8}}}=-3.77$

$p_v =P(t_{(7)}$

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.1$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

c) We can conclude that the mean is significantly less than 16 ounces at 10% of significance. so then the consumer suspect is correct.

Explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=15.6$ represent the mean for the sample

$s=0.3$ represent the sample standard deviation

$n=8$ sample size

$\mu_o =16$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.1$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

Is a one tailed left test.

What are H0 and Ha for this study?

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 16$

Alternative hypothesis : $\mu$

The degrees of freedom on this case are:

$df=n-1=8-1=7$

Compute the test statistic

The statistic for this case is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{15.6-16}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{8}}}=-3.77$

Give the appropriate conclusion for the test

Since is a one side left tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{(7)}$

Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.1$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

We can conclude that the mean is significantly less than 16 ounces at 10% of significance. so then the consumer suspect is correct.

What would be the escape speed for a craft launched from a space elevator at a height of 54,000 km?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer: 3.63 km/s

Explanation:

The escape velocity equation for a craft launched from the Earth surface is:

$V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}$

Where:

$V_{e}$ is the escape velocity

$G=6.67(10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}$ is the Universal Gravitational constant

$M=5.976(10)^{24}kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$R=6371 km=6371000 m$ is the Earth's radius

However, in this situation the craft would be launched at a height $h=54000 km=54000000 m$ over the Eart's surface with a space elevator. Hence, we have to add this height to the equation:

$V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}$

$V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67(10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2})(5.976(10)^{24}kg)}{6371000 m+54000000 m}}$

Finally:

$V_{e}=3633.86 m/s \approx 3.63 km/s$
