Suppose that material hardness is normally distributed with a mean of 52 and a standard deviation of 1. Specification limits for hardness are from 45 to 55. What is the fraction defective? What value for the process mean will minimize the fraction defective? When the fraction defective is 0.0027 this corresponds to what PPM?
part i)
A material is defective if it's hardness lies outside the specification limit. Hence the estimate of fraction defective is,
Since material harness is normally distributed, the required probability is obtained by applying central limit theorem,
Using the standard normal distribution table for z<-7 and z<3, the probabilities are
part ii)
The process mean will minimize the fraction defective if it lies at the center of specification such that process mean = (45+55)/2=50

I will rate 4. Suppose that a quality characteristic is normally distributed with specification limits (1.64, 1.84). The process standard deviation is 0.1. Suppose that the process mean is 1.71 (a) Determine the natural tolerance limits. (6 pts) (b) Calculate the fraction defective. (6 pts) (c) Calculate the appropriate process capability ratio. (8 pts)
The Rockwell hardness of a metal is determined by impressing a hardened point into the surface of the metal and then measuring the depth of penetration of the point. Suppose the Rockwell hardness of a particular alloy is normally distributed with mean 71 and standard deviation 3. (a) If a specimen is acceptable only if its hardness is between 70 and 74, what is the probability that a randomly chosen specimen has an acceptable hardness? (Round your answer to four decimal...
The Rockwell hardness of a metal is determined by impressing a hardened point into the surface of the metal and then measuring the depth of penetration of the point. Suppose the Rockwell hardness of a particular alloy is normally distributed with mean 69 and standard deviation 3. (a) If a specimen is acceptable only if its hardness is between 68 and 73, what is the probability that a randomly chosen specimen has an acceptable hardness? (Round your answer to four decimal...
Scores for an exam are normally distributed with a mean of 235 and a standard deviation of 52. What is the percentile value of a score of 270? Round your score to TWO decimal places. For example, if you compute a value of .547, you would enter .55. ALSO: Please enter ONLY the value, no equals sign, no words, etc.

all questions. Do not round answers 1. IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. a. What percentage of scores is between 55 and i 15? b. In a group of 20,000 randomly selected individuals, how many have an IQ score of 130 or more? 2. A Honda Civic has its gas mileage (in miles per gallon, or mpg) normally distributed, with a mean of 33 mpg and a standard deviation of...
