1. A manufacturer of infant formula is running an experiment using the standard (control) formula, and two new formulas, A and B. The goal is to boost the immune system in infants. 120 infants in the study are randomly assigned to each of three groups: group A, group B, and a control group. There are 40 infants in each group and the study is run for 12 weeks. At the end of the study the variable measured is total IGA (in mg per dl), with higher values being more desirable. We are going to run a one-way ANOVA on this data. A partial ANOVA table is given below.
The P-value for testing
H0: the mean IGA score is the same for all three formulas
Ha: the mean IGA score is not the same for all three formulas is
A. less than 0.001.
B. between 0.001 and 0.025.
C. greater than 0.10.

Variable N Mean StDev
Control 40 0.1278 0.04392
Formula A 40 0.1436 0.05601
Formula B 40 0.1623 0.04985
Before collecting the data, one of the primary questions was formulated as a null hypothesis H0: with the alternative Ha: , where μA and μB are the means of formulas A and B, respectively, and μC is the control mean. The t statistic for testing contrast is
A. t = 1.41.
B. t = 2.60.
C. t = 3.07.

Find the change in the internal energy
: A 600 turn solenoid, 25 cm long, has a diameter of 2.8 cm. A 10 turn coil is wound tightly around the center of the solenoid. If the current in the solenoid increases uniformly from 0 to 5.0 A in 0.48 s, what would be the induced emf magnitude in the..

Calculate the change in kinetic energy of the ball
: From a cliff that is 9.4 m above a lake, a young woman (mass 44 kg) jumps from rest, straight down into the water. At the instant she strikes the water, what is her de Broglie wavelength.

What is the sign of the charge on the wire
: How many 95W light bulbs can you use in a 120V circuit without tripping a 17A circuit breaker? (The bulbs are connected in parallel, which means that the potential difference across each light bulb is V.)

How to keep the pole motionless in a horizontal position
: You're carrying a 3.6-m-long, 25kg pole to a construction site when you decide to stop for a rest. You place one end of the pole on a fence post and hold the other end of the pole 35cm from its tip.

Correct conclusions from this procedure
: Multiple comparison procedures are going to be done using the Bonferroni method with α = 0.10. The value of t** is 2.2426. The smallest minimum significant difference (MSD) for finding a difference between groups is computed as 17.68. The correct ..

Calculate the acceleration of the counterweight
: A rifle fires a 2.39 10-2-kg pellet straight upward, since the pellet rests on a compressed spring that is released when the trigger is pulled. The spring has a negligible mass and is compressed by 9.17 10-2 m from its unstrained length. The pellet r..
