Scientists at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst have used a bacterial organism, known as Geobacter species, in a fuel cell to generate electricity. Describe, in detail, the principle and process of electrical energy generation from bacterial fuel cell. Also include in the discussion major advantages and limitations of bacterial fuel cells.

For 40 days in the summer, you are working in a small, student-run company that sends out merchandise with university branding to alumni around the world. Every day, you take a sample of 50 shipments that are ready to be shipped to the alumni and inspect them for correctness. Across all days, the average percentage of incorrect shipments is 5 percent. What would be the center line for a p-chart?

1. We try to study the relationship between a personality scale that measures willingness to take orders (on a scale from 0 to 20, where 20 represents eagerness to take orders) and the number of days served in county prison for misdemeanors. Here are the data from a sample of six prisoners:

Mean of the Willingness score tells us:

Median of the Days Served tells us:

Variance of the willingness score tell us:

Standard Deviation of the days served tells us:

While try to find the relationship of these two variables,

Which one is the dependent variable?

Which one is the independent variable?

What is the Sample Covariance?

What is the sample coefficient of correlation (r) and what does this tell us?

What is the Coefficient of Determination (R²) and what is this telling us?

What is the Slope coefficient (b₁) and what is this telling us?

What is the y-intercept (b₀) and what is this telling us?

From the above measures, particularly your r and R², can you say that the low scores of the willingness will cause the prisoner serving more days in Jail? Why or why not?

Assume the US market of sunflower oil was described by the following domestic supply and demand equations:

QDUS = 8000 – 4 P

QSUS = -2000 + 6 P

where QDUS and QSUS represent the quantities demanded and supplied (in tons) and P is the price per ton of sunflower oil (in $).

4) Now add this information:

In 2008, China entered into the World Trade Organization and became the largest importer of US sunflower oil. Assume the Chinese import demand for sunflower oil from the US in 2008 was

QDCHINA = 20000 – 10 P

1) What was the market (equilibrium) price of sunflower oil?

2) Using your work in question 1, what was the market (equilibrium) quantity of sunflower oil?

3) Using your work in questions 1 and 2, what were revenues for the suppliers of sunflower oil?

4) Given this information, what was the new equilibrium price of sunflower oil in 2008? (Hint: what is the total demand for US sunflower oil?)

5) Given the price you calculated in the previous question, what was the equilibrium total quantity demanded?

6) Given your answers in the previous 2 questions, how much of the new equilibrium quantity was consumed in the US (i.e., US quantity demanded given the new equilibrium price)?

7) Given your answers in the previous three questions, how much sunflower oil did China purchase from US producers? (i.e., China quantity demanded)

8) Given your calculations in questions # 4 and #5, what were US sunflower oil producer revenues?
