Chapter 14.1, Problem 8BSC
Pepsi Cans. In Exercises 5-8, refer to the axial loads (pounds) of aluminum Pepsi cans that are 0.0109 in. thick, as listed in Data Set 30 “Aluminum Cans” in Appendix B. An axial load of a can is the maximum weight supported by the side, and it is important to have an axial load high enough so that the can isn’t crushed when the top lid is pressed onto the top. There are seven measurements from each of 25 days of production. If the 175 axial loads are in one column, the first 7 are from the first day, the next 7 are from the second day, and so on, so that the “subgroup size” is 7.

Refer to Exercise 7. Assume that p = 4.3 ± 0.1 cm and q = 2.1 ± 0.2 cm. Estimate f, and find the relative uncertainty in the estimate.
The determination of the shear strength of spot welds is relatively difficult, whereas measuring the weld diameter of spot welds is relatively simple. As a result, it would be advantageous if shear strength could be predicted from a measurement of weld diameter. The data are as follows:

An article in the Fire Safety Journal (“The Effect of Nozzle Design on the Stability and Performance of Turbulent Water Jets,” Vol. 4, August 1981) describes an experiment in which a shape factor was determined for several different nozzle designs at six levels of jet efflux velocity. Interest focused on potential differences between nozzle designs (blocks), with velocity considered as a nuisance variable. The data are shown below:

- A crayon manufacturer is comparing the effects of two kinds of yellow dye on the brittleness of crayons. Dye B is more expensive than dye A, but it is thought that it might produce a stronger crayon. Four crayons are tested with each kind of dye, and the impact strength (in joules) is measured for each.

- Second-Hand Smoke: Data Set 12 “Passive and Active Smoke” in Appendix B includes cotinine levels measured in a group of nonsmokers exposed to tobacco smoke (n = 40, Mean = 60.58 ng>mL, s = 138.08 ng>mL) and a group of nonsmokers not exposed to tobacco smoke (n = 40, Mean = 16.35 ng>mL, s = 62.53 ng>mL). Cotinine is a metabolite of nicotine, meaning that when nicotine is absorbed by the body, cotinine is produced. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that nonsmokers exposed to tobacco smoke have a higher mean cotinine level than nonsmokers not exposed to tobacco smoke.
