The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for a cell phone measures the amount of radio frequency (RF) energy absorbed by the user's body when using the handset. Every cell phone emits RF energy. Different phone models have different SAR measures. To receive certification from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for sale in the United States, the SAR level for a cell phone must be no more than 1.6 watts per kilogram. Table shows the highest SAR level for a random selection of cell phone models as measured by the FCC.

Question
The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for a cell phone measures the amount of radio frequency
(RF) energy absorbed by the user's body when using the handset. Every cell phone emits RF
energy. Different phone models have different SAR measures. To receive certification from
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for sale in the United States, the SAR level for
a cell phone must be no more than 1.6 watts per kilogram. Table shows the highest SAR level
for a random selection of cell phone models as measured by the FCC.

Find a 98% confidence interval for the true (population) mean of the Specific Absorption Rates
(SARS) for cell phones. Assume that the population standard deviation is o=0.337.
We estimate with 98% confidence that the true SAR Mean
for the population
of cell phones in the United States is between 0.8809 and
1.1671 watts per kilogram.
