A mechanical. person is intrested in testing if tuning a car engine
would improve the gas miliage. A simple random sample of 8 cars
were selected to determine the milage (miles per gallon). Then each

In a two-page paper, identify the physics principles contained within the following scenario. Explain how these principals connect to Einstein's theory of relativity or in modern applications in physics. If you use a GPS option on your car or a mobile device, you are using Einstein's theory of relativity. Finally, provide another example from your own experience, then compare and contrast your scenario to the provided example below.
Scenario:
Mandy took a trip to Rome, Italy. She gazed out over the open ocean 20,000 feet below as her airplane began its descent to her final destination of Rome. It had been a long flight from New York to Rome, but she as she stretched, and her bones creaked as though she was old, she knew that in fact, she was a tiny bit younger than her compatriots back home, thanks to traveling at hundreds of miles per hour. In fact, time for her was running slowly compared to her friends in New York for two reasons: the speed at which she had traveled and the height of the airplane above the Earth. Neither, though, were noticeable.

To illustrate the effects of driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol, a police officer brought a DUI simulator to a local high school. Student reaction time in an emergency was measured with unimpaired vision and also while wearing a pair of special goggles to simulate the effects of alcohol on vision. For a random sample of nine teenagers, the time (in seconds) required to bring the vehicle to a stop from a speed of 60 miles per hour was recorded. Complete parts (a) and (b).
Note: A normal probability plot and boxplot of the data indicate that the differences are approximately normally distributed with no outliers.
(a) Whether the student had unimpaired vision or wore goggles first was randomly selected. Why is this a good idea in designing the experiment?
(b) Use a 95% confidence interval to test if there is a difference in braking time with impaired vision and normal vision where the differences are computed as "impaired minus normal.

Ramp metering is a traffic engineering idea that requires cars entering a freeway to stop for a certain period of time before joining the traffic flow. The theory is that ramp metering controls the number of cars on the freeway and the number of cars accessing the freeway, resulting in a freer flow of cars, which ultimately results in faster travel times. To test whether ramp metering is effective in reducing travel times, engineers conducted an experiment in which a section of freeway had ramp meters installed on the on-ramps. The response variable for the study was speed of the vehicles. A random sample of 15 cars on the highway for a Monday at 6 p.m. with the ramp meters on and a second random sample of 15 cars on a different Monday at 6 p.m. with the meters off resulted in the following speeds (in miles per hour).

Tiffany is a model rocket enthusiast. She has been working on a pressurized rocket filled with nitrous oxide. According to her design, if the atmospheric pressure exerted on the rocket is less than 10 pounds/sq.in., the nitrous oxide chamber inside the rocket will explode. Tiff worked from a formula p=14.7e−h/10p=14.7e−h/10 pounds/sq.in. for the atmospheric pressure hh miles above sea level. Assume that the rocket is launched at an angle of αα above level ground at sea level with an initial speed of 1400 feet/sec. Also, assume the height (in feet) of the rocket at time tt seconds is given by the equation y(t)=−16t2+1400sin(α)ty(t)=−16t2+1400sin(α)t. [UW]
a. At what altitude will the rocket explode?
b. If the angle of launch is αα = 12∘∘, determine the minimum
atmospheric pressure exerted on the rocket during its flight. Will
the rocket explode in midair?
c. If the angle of launch is αα = 82∘∘, determine the minimum
atmospheric pressure exerted on the rocket during its flight. Will
the rocket explode in midair?
d. Find the largest launch angle αα so that the rocket will not
explode.
