A flowmeter is supposed to be calibrated, so that measured flow is 12 mL/s. 50 measurements are made. The mean flow measured is 12.5 mL/s with standard deviation of 1.5 mL/S. A hypothesis is to be made to find out if the flowmeter is calibrated.
d. Can you conclude that the flowmeter is calibrated? Explain your answer.

A process that manufactures glass sheets is supposed to be
calibrated so that the mean thickness of the sheets is more than
4 mm. The standard deviation of the sheet thicknesses is known to
be well approximated by σ = 0.20 mm. Thicknesses of each sheet in a
sample of sheets will be measured, and a test of the hypothesis
H_0:μ≤4 versus H_1:μ>4 will be performed. Assume that, in fact,
the true mean thickness is 4.04 mm. a) If...

5. Bottles of a popular cola are supposed to contain 300 ml of
cola. There is some variation from bottle to bottle because the
filling machinery is not perfectly precise. The distribution of the
contents is normal with standard deviation = 3 ml. An inspector
who suspects that the bottler is underfilling measures the contents
of 6 bottles. The results are 299.4 297.7 298.9 301.0 300.2

A manufacturing process drills holes in sheet metal that are
supposed to be 0.5000cm in diameter. Before and after a new drill
press is installed, the hole diameter is carefully measured for 12
randomly chosen parts. At the 0.01 level of significance, can we
conclude that the drill has a different variance?

A wing-body model is tested in a wind tunnel with a
flow of 100 m/s at standard sea-level conditions.
The wing area is 1.5 m2
and the mean aerodynamic chord length is 0.45 m.
Measurements of lift force, L, and moment about the center of
gravity, M CG are made using the wind tunnel force
balance.
B1(a) When the lift is zero, the moment about the center of gravity
is measured to be, MCG = −12.4 Nm .

A soda company sells one of its soft drinks in 12 ounce cans. In
order to ensure that every can has at least 12 ounces in it, the
machines in the factory are set to fill each can with an average of
12.1 ounces of soda. Every week, a quality-control technician tests
10 cans to make sure that the average amount of soda in the cans is
still 12.1 ounces. If the conclusion of the test is that the number...

Heights were measured for a random sample of 11 plants grown
while being treated with a particular nutrient. The sample mean and
sample standard deviation of those height measurements were 35
centimeters and 8 centimeters, respectively. Assume that the
population of heights of treated plants is normally distributed
with mean μ. Based on the sample, can it be concluded that μ is
different from 42 centimeters? Use the 0.05 level of significance.
