- One operation of a mill is to cut pieces of steel into parts that will later be used as the frame for front seats in an automobile. The steel is cut with a diamond saw and requires the resulting parts to be within 10.005 inch of the length specified by the automobile company. Data are collected from a sample of 50 steel parts and are shown in the following table. The measurement reported is the difference in inches between the actual length of the steel part, as measured by a laser measurement device, and the specified length of the steel part. For example, the first value, -0.003, represents a steel part that is 0.003 inch shorter than the specified length. Complete parts a through c Click the icon to view the data table. a.

- The temperature of a certain chemical process is thought to be related to the time it takes for the process to reach completion. Out goal is to that relationship so that we can use it to predict TIME TO REACH COMPLETION at various TEMPERATURES. 14 trials are set up and the time for the process to complete is measured for each of the different temperatures.

Ten independent measurements are made with an instrument whose uncertainty is 0.05 a. mm. Let denote the average of these measurements. Find the uncertainty in 7. b. A new measuring device, whose uncertainty is only 0.02 mm, becomes available. Five independent measurements are made with this device. Let y denote the average of these measurements. Find the uncertainty in y. In order to decrease the uncertainty still further, it is decided to combine the estimates X and y. One engineer suggests estimating the length with (1/2)X + (1/2)Y. A second engineer argues that since X is base don 10 measurements, while y is based on only five, a better estimate is (10/15)X+ (5/15)F. Find the uncertainty in each of these C. estimates.
