Assume that we wish to design a Mach 10 hypersonic wind tunnel using air as the test medium. We want the static pressure and temperature in the test stream to be that for a standard altitude of 55 km. Calculate (a) the exit-to-throat area ratio, (b) the required reservoir pressure (in atm), (c) the required reservoir temperature, and (d) the exit velocity. What do these results tell you about the special (and sometimes severe) operating requirements for a hypersonic wind tunnel?

How do we solve this? Consider the air over a city (60x25 km). Wind with 18 km/hr speed brings the fresh air into the city from the west side of the region (25 km wide). Assume that 15 kg/s carbon monoxide (CO) is emitted from different sources in the city to the air. Assume, also, that the CO is conservative and uniformly spread all over the area up to an altitude of one kilometer. Modeling the air over the city...

We have a random sample of size 10 from a normal distribution. We wish to estimate the population mean. Damjan suggests taking the average of the sample minimum and sample maximum. Allan thinks this will be a poor estimator and says we should use the sample mean instead. Do a simulation in R to compare these two estimators in terms of their bias and variance. Include a side-by-side boxplot that compares their sampling distributions.

Suppose we wish to study the effect of education on an individual’s hourly wage using a sample of individuals. For each individual i in our sample, let wi denote hourly wage, let ei denote years of post-high school education, let si denote sex (suppose si = 1 for females and si = 0 for males). Consider estimating the relationship: wi = α + βei + ei where α and β are unobservable population parameters and i is the component of...

World production of crude oil in 2010 was about 3.5 billion tonnes. Assume that we wish to replace 10% of this supply with a transportation fuel derived from biomass. Assume that the energy content of biomass is about 1% of incident solar energy during the growing season. How many hectares of arable land worldwide would be needed to supply this quantity of biomass fuel? What fraction of arable land area worldwide does this represent?
