The pressure and temperature at the beginning of the compression are 1 bar and 27°C. Assuming an ideal engine in which the compression ratio and the expansion ratio for a C.I engine are (15+ ? ???) and (8− ? ???) respectively. Determine the mean effective pressure, the ratio of maximum pressure to mean effective pressure and cycle efficiency. Also, find the fuel consumption per kWh if the indicated thermal efficiency is 50% of ideal efficiency, mechanical efficiency is 80% and the calorific value of diesel oil is 42000 kJ/kg. Assume for air: cp = 1.005 kJ/kg K ; cv = 0.718 kJ/kg K, γ = 1.4. [7 Marks] Where n is 17

1. A permanent increase in money supply cannot affect any variable in the OLG model of money.
2. In the OLG model of money, Fiat money does not pay interest, so money's rate of return is 1.
3. Suppose that the government finances its expenditure through seigniorage revenue. There exists an upper limit on the amount of the seigniorage revenue that can be generated.
4. The original Phillips curve finds that there is a negative correlation between inflation and output growth.
5. The Lucas critique indicates that the government can use a random monetary policy to stimulate output.

In the following problem, check that it is appropriate to use
the normal approximation to the binomial. Then use the normal
distribution to estimate the requested probabilities.
Do you take the free samples offered in supermarkets? About 56% of
all customers will take free samples. Furthermore, of those who
take the free samples, about 42% will buy what they have sampled.
Suppose you set up a counter in a supermarket offering free samples
of a new product. The day you were offering free samples, 323
customers passed by your counter. (Round your answers to four
decimal places.)
(a) What is the probability that more than 180 will take your
free sample?
(b) What is the probability that fewer than 200 will take your free
sample?
(c) What is the probability that a customer will take a free sample
and buy the product? Hint: Use the multiplication rule for
dependent events. Notice that we are given the conditional
probability P(buy|sample) = 0.42, while P(sample)
= 0.56.
(d) What is the probability that between 60 and 80 customers will
take the free sample and buy the product? Hint:
Use the probability of success calculated in part (c).

In the following problem, check that it is appropriate to use
the normal approximation to the binomial. Then use the normal
distribution to estimate the requested probabilities.
Do you take the free samples offered in supermarkets? About 62% of
all customers will take free samples. Furthermore, of those who
take the free samples, about 37% will buy what they have sampled.
Suppose you set up a counter in a supermarket offering free samples
of a new product. The day you were offering free samples, 317
customers passed by your counter. (Round your answers to four
decimal places.)

free sample?
(b) What is the probability that fewer than 200 will take your free
sample?
(c) What is the probability that a customer will take a free sample
and buy the product? Hint: Use the multiplication rule for
dependent events. Notice that we are given the conditional
probability P(buy|sample) = 0.37, while P(sample)
= 0.62.
