You have samples of various sizes which you use to estimate a population mean. In the population, the true mean is 100 and the true standard deviation is 10. With which of the following sample sizes are you most likely to see an estimated mean of 135?
a) Sample size 2
b) Sample size 1
c) Sample size 10
d) Sample size 100

ANSWER

Given,
In the population,
the true mean = 100
the true standard deviation = 10.
With estimated mean of 135,
sample size can be 101,
almost nearer to,
d. Sample size 100
n = N*X / (N + X – 1),
where,
X = Zα/22 ­* σ2 / MOE2,
and Zα/2 is the critical value of the Normal distribution at α/2 (e.g. for a confidence level of 95%, α is 0.05 and the critical value is 1.96), MOE is the margin of error, σ2 is the population variance, and N is the population size.

Question: prove by induction 2^2 + 4^2 + 6^2 + ... + (2n)^2 = (2n)(2n+1)(2n+2)/6 ANSWER we will use induction on n base case : n=1 we have, 2^2 = 2*3*4/6 = 4 which is true inductive hypothesis let it be true for n = k i.e.,  2^2 + 4^2 + ... + (2k)^2 =   [(2k)(2k+1)(2k+2)]/6 inductive case let n = k+1 then we have 2^2 + 4^2 + .... + (2k)^2 + (2(k+1))^2 =   [(2k)(2k+1)(2k+2)]/6 + (2k+2)^2 =(2k+2)*[(2k)(2k+1)/6 + (2k+2)] =(2k+2)*[ (4k^2+2k)/6 + (12k + 12)/6 ] =(2k+2)*[ (4k^2+14k+12)/6 ] = =(2k+2)*[(2k)(2k+1)/6 + (2k+2)] =(2k+2)*[ (4k^2+2k)/6 + (12k + 12)/6 ] =(2k+2)*[ (4k^2+14k+12)/6 ] = (2k+2)*[ (4k^2 + 8k + 6k + 12)/6 ] = (2k+2)*[ (4k(k + 2) +6(k+2))/6 ] = (2k+2)*[ (4k+6)(k+2)/6 ] =  (2k+2)*[ 2 (2k+3)(k+2)/6  ] =   (2k+2)*[  (2k+3)*2*(k+2)/6  ] =   (2k+2)*[  (2k+3)(2k+4)/6  ] = [(2*(k+1))(2*(k+1)+1)(2*(k+1)+2)]/6 replacing k+1 by m, we get replacing k+1 by m, we get [(2*m)(2*m+1)(2*m+2)]/6 this completes our proof b...

Question: Q1 a. Sketch the static characteristics of a diode. (6 marks) b. An AC voltage source V drives a transformer with centre tap second indin gs connected to two rectifiers is shown in the following diagram. The load has constant current Io. Assume that when the diode conducts the forward voltage drop is Ve d V Vmsnot. The turns ratio is N: 1:1. Sketch the current waveform through one of the diodes. (6 marks) c. Write down an equation for efficiency of a power converter in terms of output power and converter losses (2 marks) d. Given the following parameters, calculate the efficiency of the power converter. Va = 310 V ω-2π50 forward voltage drop of the diodes VF = 0.7 V Transformer turns ratio = 10: 1 : 1 load current = 10 A Assume that the transformer has no loss and converter losses come from the diodes only. Also assume the diode voltage drop does not change with current. State your assumption if there is any 6 marks) ANSWER
