A manufacturing process produces piston rings, with ID (inner diameter) dimension as shown above. Process variation causes the ID to be normally distributed, with a mean of 10.021 cm and a standard deviation of 0.040 cm. a. What percentage of piston rings will have ID exceeding 10.075 cm? What percentage of piston rings will have ID exceeding 10.080 cm? (4) b. What is the probability that a piston ring will have ID between 9.970 cm and 10.030 cm? (This is the customer’s specification that the supplier tries to provide .) (ie.) If the specification is “9.970cm < ID < 10.030cm”, what %’age of piston rings are “out of spec”? c. Half (50%) of all piston rings have ID below 10.021 cm. What is the dimension corresponding to the smallest 10%, and what is the dimension corresponding to the largest 10%? What is the dimension corresponding to the smallest 20%, and what is the dimension corresponding to the largest 20%
