A civil engineer is analyzing the compressive strength of concrete. The compressive strength is approximately normal distributed with variance 1000 psi2. A random sample of 12 specimens has a compressive strength of 3273, 3229, 3256, 3272, 3201, 3247, 3267, 3237, 3286, 3210, 3265, and 3273 psi. (a) Test the hypothesis that the average compressive strength is 3500 psi. Use a fixed level test with 0.01. (b) What is the smallest level of significance at which you would be willing to reject the null hypothesis? (c) Construct a 95% two-sided IC at medium-force compression. (d) Construct a 99% two-sided IC at medium-force compression. Compare the width of this confidence interval with the width of that found in part

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.
