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.

A 50 kg skydiver is falling downwards and accelerating 6 m/s2 down. What is the net force on the skydiver?
Montano1993 [528]

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)  (Newton #2)

Net Force = (50 kg) x (6 m/s² down)

Net Force = (50 * 6) (kg-m/s² down)

<em>Net Force = 300 Newtons down</em>

What is a derived physical quantity? Name three derived physical quantities, and for each, give its S.I. units and its U.S. Cust
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Physical quantity is a physical property of an object or material that can be expressed by magnitude and unit.

The derived physical quantities are the type of physical quantities which can be expressed or defined by other physical quantities, called the base quantities. Example: Area, Volume, Velocity

Area- SI Unit: m², U.S. Customary unit: acre

Volume- SI Unit: m³, U.S. Customary unit: cubic inch

Velocity- SI Unit: m/s, U.S. Customary unit: ft/s

PLEASE HELP!!!!
defon

Answer:

v = 2.45 m/s

Explanation:

first we find the time taken during this motion by considering the vertical motion only and applying second equation of motion:

h = Vi t + (1/2)gt²

where,

h = height of cliff = 15 m

Vi = Initial Vertical Velocity = 0 m/s

t = time taken = ?

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

15 m = (0 m/s) t + (1/2)(9.8 m/s²)t²

t² = (15 m)/(4.9 m/s²)

t = √3.06 s²

t = 1.75 s

Now, we consider the horizontal motion. Since, we neglect air friction effects. Therefore, the horizontal motion has uniform velocity. Therefore,

s = vt

where,

s = horizontal distance covered = 4.3 m

v = original horizontal velocity = ?

Therefore,

4.3 m = v(1.75 s)

v = 4.3 m/1.75 s

<u>v = 2.45 m/s</u>

RSB [31]

Answer:

1.2 kg

Explanation:

Let UP ramp be the positive direction

                                                  F = ma

   T     -   Wt ||      -         Ff            = m(0)

  mg   -  Μgsinθ -      μΜgcosθ    = 0

m(9.8) - 13sin35 - 0.36(13)cos35 = 0        

                                                 m = 13(sin35 + 0.36cos35) / 9.8

                                                 m = 1.15205... ≈ 1.2 kg
