Question
An engineer needs to estimate the amount of power dissipated by a wire-wound resistor. Power (in watts) can be
found by P =V2R where V is the voltage (in volts) and R is the resistance (in Ohms). In this particular application, assume the voltage V ∼ ·(µV , σ2 V = 0.22) and assume the resistance R ∼ ·(µR, σ2 R = 0.12). Assume V and R are independent. The engineer measured the voltage and resistance and found v = 14.4 volts and r = 8.2 Ohms.
