Answer:
The weight should be added to the base of the sign to keep it from tipping is 65.6 lb
Explanation:
Given data:
A sigh weighs 40 pounds
Suported by an 18 in x 18 in square
Force of the wind 13.2 lb
Questions: Will the sign tip over, if yes, how much evelnly distributed weight should be added to the base of the sign to keep it from tipping, W = ?
The sign and the post have a length of 6 ft. You need to calculate the distance from the edge to the middle point:
18/2 = 9 in = 0.75 ft
Force acting in the base (40 lb):

The weight should be added to the base:

Answer:
Many techniques have been developed for the measurement of pressure and vacuum. Instruments used to measure and display pressure in an integral unit are called pressure meters or pressure gauges or vacuum gauges.
Answer:
a) Sample size = 1691
b) 95% Confidence Interval = (0.3696, 0.4304)
Explanation:
(a) How large a sample n should they take to estimate p with 2% margin of error and 90% confidence?
The margin of error is given by

Where z is the corresponding z-score for 90% confidence level
z = 1.645 (from z-table)
for p = 0.50 and 2% margin of error, the required sample size would be

(b) The advocacy group took a random sample of 1000 consumers who recently purchased this mobile phone and found that 400 were happy with their purchase. Find a 95% confidence interval for p.
The sample proportion is
p = 400/1000
p = 0.40
z = 1.96 (from z-table)
n = 1000
The confidence interval is given by

Therefore, we are 95% confident that the proportion of consumers who bought the newest generation of mobile phone were happy with their purchase is within the range of (0.3696, 0.4304)
What is Confidence Interval?
The confidence interval represents an interval that we can guarantee that the target variable will be within this interval for a given confidence level.

Explanation:
Kindly check the attached images below to see the step by step explanation to the question above and also note that I derived the whole expressions in variable firm that are required to solve this question and giving reasons for each step so that you can employ these steps in solving new problems.
Answer:
(b) Constant (minimum) volume
Explanation:
In the idealized Otto cycle there are 4 process that are
- Reversible adiabatic compression
- Addition of heat at constant volume
- Reversible adiabatic expansion
- Rejection of constant volume
So from above discussion we can see that heat is added when there is constant (minimum) volume which is given in option (b) so option (b) will be the correct answer
