Chapter 11.2, Problem 21E
In an experiment to investigate the effect of “cement factor”(number of sacks of cement per cubic yard) on flexural strength of the resulting concrete (“Studies of Flexural Strength of Concrete. Part 3: Effects of Variation in Testing Procedure,” Proceedings, ASTM,1957: 1127–1139), I = 3 different factor values were used, J = 5 different batches of cement were selected, and K = 2 beams were cast from each cement factor/batch combination. Sums of squares include SSA = 22,941.80, SSB = 22,765.53, SSE = 15,253.50,and SST = 64,954.70. Construct the ANOVA table. Then, assuming a mixed model with cement factor (A) fixed and batches (B) random, test the three pairs of hypotheses of interest at level .05.

An experiment was conducted to study the extrusion process of biodegradable packaging foam. Two of the factors considered for their effect on
the unit density (mg/ml) were the die temperature (145 °C vs. 155 °C) and the die diameter (3 mm vs. 4 mm). The results are stored in [Packaging

- The specification for the pull strength of a wire that connects an integrated circuit to its frame is 10 g or more. Units made with aluminum wire have a defect rate of 10%. A redesigned manufacturing process, involving the use of gold wire, is being investigated. The goal is to reduce the rate of defects to 5% or less. Out of the first 100 units manufactured with gold wire, only 4 are defective. True or false: a) Since only 4% of the 100 units were defective, we can conclude that the goal has been reached. b) Although the sample percentage is under 5%, this may represent sampling variation, so the goal may not yet be reached. c) There is no use in testing the new process, because no matter what the result is, it could just be due to sampling variation. d) If we sample a large enough number of units, and if the percentage of defective units is far enough below 5%, then it is reasonable to conclude that the goal has been reached.arrow_forwardA study is made of the effect of curing temperature on the compressive strength of a certain type of concrete.
