1 ME EXAM # Tuesday, October 7, 04 6:30 7:30 pm PHYS and 4 Division: Chiu(0:30) / Shelton(:30) / Bae(:30) (circle one) HW ID: Name: Solution Instructions () This is a closed book examination, but you are allowed one single-sided 8.5 crib sheet. () You have one hour to work all four problems in the exam. (3) Write your name and HW ID on the top of each page. (4) Use the solution procedure: what are you given, what are you asked to find, what are your assumptions, what is your solution, does your solution make sense. You must show all of your work to receive any credit. Clearly mark up your answer. (5) You must write neatly and should use a logical format to solve the problems. You are encouraged to really think about the problems before you start to solve them. (6) If you use extra pages, make sure to write your NAME and HWID on the top. Make sure to sort the pages in the correct order and re-staple the packet together. (7) Pay attention to units and remember to write down the units as needed. (8) You are only allowed to use the ME authorized exam calculator, the TI-30XIIs. (9) You are not allowed to use your cellphone during exam. Please TURN OFF YOU CELLPHONE.

2 Problem (40 Points) You have developed a novel optical detector that converts incoming light intensity into voltages. The calibration test data shows the following relationship. The cross marks are from the calibration experiments and the straight line is the best linear approximation.

As a starting point, she suggests you set limits that can be met by 97% of the units coming off the assembly line. Production data indicates a mean value of 500 rpm, and a standard deviation of 0 rpm. Assuming a normal distribution for the idle speed, what are the upper and lower limits you place on the engine s acceptable idle speed? ω = 500 S ω = 0 [rpm] [rpm] For 97%, use z-table: z 97 =.7 ω ± z 97 S ω will contain 97% 500 ±.7 0 = 500 ± 43.4 [rpm] = [456.6, 543.3] [rpm] Page 7 of
