  1. Calculate relative frequencies for; Overall Type of Calls, Call Quality and Call Errors.
  2. Calculate the following probabilities:
    • CLM Error and AM Shift
    • COV Error and PM Shift
    • SAV Error or AM Shift
    • Given that the call comes in the morning, what is the probability of a CLM Error
  3. NARRATIVE: Based upon the probabilities in step 2, which error(s) should the company focus on for improvement? Should they direct their attention to a particular shift?
  4. If a sample size of 15 is used and we assume calls are either correct we can model the call quality using a binomial distribution. Based upon the probability of an error (provided in the Quality Summary under Call Quality), predict the probability of:
    • Exactly 0 errors occurring in 15 calls
    • Less than 2 errors occurring in 15 calls
    • 5 or more errors occurring in 15 calls
  5. Provide Descriptive Statistics for Call Time to include; Mean, Standard Deviation and the 5-number summary.
  6. Using the Call Time Mean and Standard Deviation from the Quality Sample, find the probability of a call time less than 7 minutes, between 7 and 9 minutes, and greater than 9 minutes.
  7. NARRATIVE: From past research the company knows that customers expect to have their calls handled without error and within approximately 7.5 minutes on the phone. Use the information from steps 4-6 to evaluate how well the company is meeting these expectations.

A building has a calculated cooling load of 10 tons, of which 2.5 tons is latent load. The space is to be maintained at 72 F db and 50 percent relative humidity. Ten percent by volume of the air supplied to the space is outdoor air at 100 F db and 50 percent relative humidity. The air supplied to the space cannot be less that 55 F db. Assume barometric pressure at sea level, and using the Psychrometric analysis software, find:

(a) The quantity of air supplied to the space in cfm,

(b) The amounts of return air and outdoor air in cfm,

(c) The conditions and volume flow rate of the air entering the cooling coil, point 1.

(d) The capacity and SHF for the cooling coil.

Attach your design report showing the psychrometric analysis of the problem and conditions of state points.

A closed rigid cylindrical vessel (internal diameter = 2 ft and internal height = 10 ft) has R-134a at x = 0.95 and 40 oF. The vessel is heated up to 100 oF. Assume that heat loss from the vessel is negligible. Kinetic and potential effects are negligible. Determine 1) the final pressure in psi [lbf/in2], 2) the mass of R-134a in lbm, 3) the heat transfer in Btu for this process and discuss its direction (if the heat is added to or rejected from the system), 4) the work transfer in Btu for this process and discuss its direction (if the work is done by or on the system), and 5) draw the process in T-v (temperature-specific volume) diagram.

A spring cannon has a spring constant of 350 N / m and the bullet weighs 10 grams. What is the maximum height, measured above the equilibrium position of the spring, that the spring cannon can shoot the ball up to if the maximum compression of the spring is 3.0 cm?


(Continuation of the previous question)
Before firing, the spring is compressed 2.0 centimeters in relation to the equilibrium position and the firing angle is set to ?? = 41 °. The spring gun is mounted on a table, the equilibrium position of the spring is at the same height as the surface of the table and the ball lands on the table at the horizontal distance L from the spring gun. what is the distance L?

continuation
The spring gun is now mounted so that it shoots over the edge of the table and the bullet hits the floor,
which is 110 cm below the table edge. The firing angle is unchanged ?? = 41 °.
If the starting velocity of the ball is ??0 = 2.0 m / s, what is the horizontal distance from the spring gun to the place where the bullet hits the floor?

1. Describe 3 different cases having corrosion by determining the material (the alloys with the codes and composition), describing the component having corrosion, the environment making corrosion to the component. You will give suggestions to the user that will solve the corrosion problem. However, there are some constraints that you need to check. - The reasons for the corrosion should be different for all cases. - The environment, the material, the component should be different for all situations. - The suggestions that solve the corrosion problem should be different for all situations. - There is no option for changing the material.

2. Write a question about composite materials and then solve the question. To do that follow the steps described below. - State the host material and fiber type. - State the composition of the composite material. - State type of fiber arrangement. - Give a reasonable modulus of elasticity for both of the materials. - State the cross-sectional area of the composite material. - State the direction of the fiber. - State the applied stress. After giving all these properties. -Compute the modulus of elasticity of the composite material. -Compute the loading carried by the fiber and the host material. -Compute the strain sustained by the fiber and the host material.
