Three engineers are independently estimating the spring constant of a spring, using the linear model specified by Hooke’s law. Engineer A measures the length of the spring under loads of 0, 1, 2, 4, and 6 lb, for a total of five measurements. Engineer B uses the same loads, but repeats the experiment twice, for a total of 10 independent measurements. Engineer C uses loads of 0, 2, 4, 8, and 12 lb, measuring once for each load. The engineers all use the same measurement apparatus and procedure. Each engineer computes a 95% confidence interval for the spring constant. If the width of the interval of engineer A is divided by the width of the interval of engineer B, the quotient will be approximately

Consider the example of injection moulding of a rubber component as shown in Figure Q3(b). The process engineer would like to optimise the strength of the component by optimising the following factors: temperature = 190°C and 210°C, pressure = 50 MPa and 100 MPa, and speed of injection = 10 mm/s and 50 mm/s. What type of mathematical model that the engineer can develop if the relationship is linear and no interactions are significant? Write down the general equation that relates the strength of the component with the process factors.
