The pucks used by the National Hockey League for ice hockey must weigh between 5.5 and 6.0 ounces. Suppose the weights of pucks produced at a factory are normally distributed with a mean of 5.75 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.11 ounces. What percentage of pucks produced at this factory cannot be used by the National Hockey League?

Solutions

Expert Solution

X :  the weights of pucks produced at a factory

X ~ N (5.75, 0.11)

the probability that the pucks are between 5.5 ounces and 6.0 ounces is:-

[ in any blank cell of excel type =NORMSDIST(2.2727)]

the percentage of pucks produced at this factory cannot be used by the National Hockey League is:-

%

The drawing shows a collision between two pucks on an air-hockey table. Puck A has a mass of 0.0290 kg and is moving along the x axis with a velocity of +6.85 m/s. It makes a collision with puck B, which has a mass of 0.0580 kg and is initially at rest. The collision is not head-on. After the collision, the two pucks fly apart with the angles shown in the drawing. Find the speed of (a) puck A and...

One factor in rating a National Hockey League team is the mean weight of its players. A random sample of players from the Detroit Red Wings was obtained. The weight (in pounds) of each player was carefully measured, and the resulting data have a sample size of 18 with a sample mean of 205 pounds and a sample standard deviation of 11.6 pounds. You can assume that all of the assumptions are met. a) What are the assumptions that are...
