Ultra high-performance concrete (UHPC) is a relatively new construction material that i characterized by strong adhesive properties with other materials. The following data are the adhesion measurements (in mJ/m²) for UHPC specimens adhered to steel: 107.1, 109.5 107.4, 106.8, 108.1. Assume that these sample observations were selected from a norma distribution. a) Calculate a two-sided 95% confidence interval for the true average work of adhesion for UHPC adhered to steel using R. b) Predict the resulting work of adhesion value resulting from a single future replication o the experiment by calculating a 95% prediction interval and compare the width of thi interval to the width of the CI from Part a) using R.

Ten samples are tested, resulting in amean porosity factor of 1.9 kilograms and a variance of 0.04. Is there sufficient evidence to indicate that the coke is more porous than is claimed? Use and assume the porosity measurements are approximately normally distributed.A manufacturing company produces bearings. One line of bearings is specified to be 1.64 centimeters (cm) in diameter. A major customer requires that the variance of the bearings be no more than .001 cm². The producer is required to test the bearings before they are shipped, and so the diameters of 16 bearings are measured with a precise instrument, resulting in the following values. Assume bearing diameters are normally distributed. Use the data and a = 0.01 to test to determine whether the population of these bearings is to be rejected because of too high a variance. 1.68 1.62 1.63 1.70 1.66 1.63 1.65 1.71 1.64 1.69 1.57 1.64 1.59 1.66 1.63 1.65 Appendix A Statistical Tables (Round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)

Refer to the Human Factors (November 2019) study of the effects of finger strength and muscle fatigue on the ability to shoot a pistol, Exercise 2.80 (p. 86). Recall that muscle strength was measured (in Newtons) by the maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) of the index finger. The researchers found that when at rest, expert male shooters have a mean MVIC of 160.3 N and a standard deviation of 19.6 N. However, after repeated shooting sessions, the expert shooters have a mean MVIC of 133.5 N and a standard deviation of 19.6 N. Assume that the distribution of MVIC strength scores in both scenarios is approximately normal. a. When at rest, what is the probability that an expert shooter has an MVIC value of 120 N or less? b. After repeated shooting sessions, what is the probability that an expert shooter has an MVIC value of 120 N or less? c. What MVIC value will be exceeded by 75% of the expert shooters when at rest? d.
