We are trying to maximise the lifetime of a particular engine by testing two different types of maintenance schedule. We test Schedule A on 40 engines which leads to an average lifetime of 13.2 years with a standard deviation of 3.1. We test Schedule B on another 40 engines which leads to an average lifetime of 10.4 years with a standard deviation of 2.1. The 98.5% confidence interval for the difference in the lifetimes is given by:

  • A. [1.64,3.96]
  • B. [1.36,4.24]
  • C. [1.92,3.68]
  • D. [1.52,4.08]

Lets say that we are testing an engine that produces 17 kW of power. As this engine is operating, it absorbs 95 kW of heat from the surrounding air at 17 C. The air is then exited from a combustor into a room at 20 C. What is the reversible power? Group of answer choices -32.9 kW 32.9 kW 5.882 kW -5.882 kW
