(part 1 of 2)

An electric car is designed to run on a bank of batteries with a total potential difference of 29 V and a total energy storage of 2.2×107 J. If the electric motor draws 6.8 kW, what is the current delivered to the motor? Answer in units of A.

(part 2 of 2) If the electric motor draws 6.8 kW as the car moves at a steady speed of 47.0 m/s, how far will the car travel before it is “out of juice”? Answer in units of m.

. A manufacturer of car batteries claims that the life of his batteries is approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of more than 0.9 years. They wish to test this hypothesis using a random sample of 10 of these batteries and a level of significance of 0.05. (a) State the null and alternative hypothesis, the test statistic, and the critical region. (b) Suppose the sample standard deviation is 1.2 years. State and interpret the conclusion of the test.

1)- A set of solar batteries is used in a research satellite. The satellite can run on only one battery, but it runs best if more than one battery is used. The variance σ2 of lifetimes of these batteries affects the useful lifetime of the satellite before it goes dead. If the variance is too small, all the batteries will tend to die at once. Why? If the variance is too large, the batteries are simply not dependable. Why? Engineers...

Tudor brand car batteries are sold with the claim that they will last for at least 4 years. Weibang, having boosted his car (with a 3.5-year-old Tudor battery) many times this past winter, believes that the mean battery life is less than four years. A random sample of eight batteries was taken. The batteries were operational for the following time periods (months): 40, 41, 52, 48, 44, 47, 45, 43. (s =3.9 months). At the 5% significance level, can Weibang...
