An engineer is testing the shear strength of spot welds used on a construction site. The engineer's null hypothesis at a 5% leve

l of signigicance, is that th mean shear strenfth of spot welds is at least 3.1 MPa. The engineer randomly selcts 15 Welds and measures the shear strength is 3.07 MPa with a sample standard deciation of 0.069 MPa. Which of the following statment is true?
a) The null hypothesis should not be rejected.
b) The null hypothesis should be rejected.
c) The alternate hypothesis should be rejected.
d) The null and alternate hypotheses are equally likely.

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

Kitty [74]

Answer:

The second classmate is right.

Explanation:

The height of first summit provides the potential energy it will use to climb the following ones.

Ep = m * g * h

Where

m: mass

g: acceleration of gravity

h: height

When the train goes downwards the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy (manifested as speed) and when it climbs it consumes its kinetical energy. As long as no summit is taller than the first the train should have enough energy to climb them.

Also it must be noted that friction also consumes energy, and if the track is too lomg all the energy might be consumed by it.

katovenus [111]

Answer: Doctrine of ratification

Explanation:Doctrine of ratification tries to show that a person who is taking so much a time to complain has indicated that he agrees even if he doesn't without a written consent. This is to eliminate undue waste of time in business, legal an other proceedings requiring consent of both parties.

Doctrine of ratification can either be implied or expressed

Implied ratification is the type of ratification where a persons actions or body language can be seen that he has accepted.

Express ratification is a ratification where a person intentionally accept by showing either through written or verbally.

investigation, determine when the Elastic Potential Energy is zero. Make sure you test your idea with several masses, all three
nata0808 [166]

Elastic Potential Energy is zero detailed description is given below.

Explanation:

  • It is the energy stored in stretched or compressed elastic materials. This also means that elastic potential energy is zero in objects that have not been stretched or compressed.
  • To determine the gravitational potential energy of an object, a zero height position must first be arbitrarily assigned. Typically, the ground is considered to be a position of zero height. But this is merely an arbitrarily assigned position that most people agree upon. Since many of our labs are done on tabletops, it is often customary to assign the tabletop to be the zero height position. Again this is merely arbitrary. If the tabletop is the zero position, then the potential energy of an object is based upon its height relative to the tabletop. For example, a pendulum bob swinging to and from above the tabletop has a potential energy that can be measured based on its height above the tabletop. By measuring the mass of the bob and the height of the bob above the tabletop, the potential energy of the bob can be determined.

  • Potential energy is the energy that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position. An object possesses gravitational potential energy if it is positioned at a height above (or below) the zero height. An object possesses elastic potential energy if it is at a position on an elastic medium other than the equilibrium position.

Since the gravitational potential energy of an object is directly proportional to its height above the zero position, a doubling of the height will result in a doubling of the gravitational potential energy. A tripling of the height will result in a tripling of the gravitational potential energy.
