Three adhesives are being analysed for their impact on the bonding strength of paper in a pulp and paper mill. The adhesives are each randomly applied to four batches. The data is shown in Table 2. Here, the three treatments are the adhesives (p=3) and the number of replications for each treatment is 4 (r=4). Is there a difference among the adhesives in terms of the mean bonding strength? Test at the 5% significance level. Given F0.05,2,9 = 4.26 Adhesive Bonding strength (kg) type Adhesive 1 10.2 11.8 Adhesive 2 12.8 14.7 Adhesive 3 7.2 9.8 Table 2 Bonding strength data 9.6 13.3 8.7 12.4 15.4 9.2
The degenerative disease osteoarthritis most frequently affects weight-bearing joints such as knee. The article “Evidence of Mechanical Load Redistribution at the Knee Joint in the Elderly when Ascending Stairs and Ramps” (Annals of Biomed. Engr., 2008:467-476) presented the following summary data on stance duration (ms) for samples of both older and younger adults.   Age Sample Size Sample Mean Sample SD Older 28 801 117 Younger 16 780 72   Assume that both stance duration distributions are normal. Carry out a test of hypotheses at significance level .05 to decide whether true average stance duration is larger among elderly individuals than among younger individuals. (Population variances are not assumed equal.)
The yield of alfalfa from a random sample of six test plots is 1.4, 1.6, 0.9, 1.9, 2.2,and 1.2 tons per acre. Assume the data can be looked upon as a sample from anormal population. Test at the 0.05 level of significance whether this supports thecontention that the average yield for this kind of alfalfa is 1.5 tones per acre.
