Answer:
b) The null hypothesis should be rejected.
Explanation:
The null hypothesis is that the mean shear strength of spot welds is at least
3.1 MPa
H0: u ≥3.1 MPa against the claim Ha: u< 3.1 MPa
The alternate hypothesis is that the mean shear strength of spot welds is less than 3.1 MPa.
This is one tailed test
The critical region Z(0.05) < ± 1.645
The Sample mean= x`= 3.07
The number of welds= n= 15
Standard Deviation= s= 0.069
Applying z test
z= x`-u/s/√n
z= 3.07-3.1/0.069/√15
z= -0.03/0.0178
z= -1.68
As the calculated z= -1.68 falls in the critical region Z(0.05) < ± 1.645 the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternate hypothesis is accepted that the mean shear strength of spot welds is less than 3.1 MPa
complete question
A certain amplifier has an open-circuit voltage gain of unity, an input resistance of 1 \mathrm{M} \Omega1MΩ and an output resistance of 100 \Omega100Ω The signal source has an internal voltage of 5 V rms and an internal resistance of 100 \mathrm{k} \Omega.100kΩ. The load resistance is 50 \Omega.50Ω. If the signal source is connected to the amplifier input terminals and the load is connected to the output terminals, find the voltage across the load and the power delivered to the load. Next, consider connecting the load directly across the signal source without the amplifier, and again find the load voltage and power. Compare the results. What do you conclude about the usefulness of a unity-gain amplifier in delivering signal power to a load?
Answer:
3.03 V 0.184 W
2.499 mV 125*10^-9 W
Explanation:
First, apply voltage-divider principle to the input circuit: 1
*5
= 4.545 V
The voltage produced by the voltage-controlled source is:
A_voc*V_i = 4.545 V
We can find voltage across the load, again by using voltage-divider principle:
V_o = A_voc*V_i*(R_o/R_l+R_o)
= 4.545*(100/100+50)
= 3.03 V
Now we can determine delivered power:
P_L = V_o^2/R_L
= 0.184 W
Apply voltage-divider principle to the circuit:
V_o = (R_o/R_o+R_s)*V_s
= 50/50+100*10^3*5
= 2.499 mV
Now we can determine delivered power:
P_l = V_o^2/R_l
= 125*10^-9 W
Delivered power to the load is significantly higher in case when we used amplifier, so a unity gain amplifier can be useful in situation when we want to deliver more power to the load. It is the same case with the voltage, no matter that we used amplifier with voltage open-circuit gain of unity.
Answer:
Farm equipment
Explanation:
Most people have heard claims that the US government pays farmers not to grow crops. The Agricultural Adjustment Act is the legislation that started this program. It was the first “Farm Bill.” The current farm bill provides for the following:
Subsidies for farmers
Insurance for farmers
Price supports
Food assistance for economically challenged Americans (the largest portion of the Farm Bill)
Forestry conservation programs
Alternative energy programs.
Since the applied stress required for failure due to crack propagation is still higher than 550 MPa, the ceramic is expected to fail due to overload and not because of the flaws
Explanation:
<u>Plane -Strain Fracture toughness is calculated as</u>
