Wanted to have my solution checked for this question..... Research Question: To what extent does ERAU's new composite material improve the load-bearing capacity of aircraft

Wanted to have my solution checked for this question.....

  • Research Question: To what extent does ERAU's new composite material improve the load-bearing capacity of aircraft wings, i.e., greater load capacity (if any)?
  • HA:Allaircraft wings constructed with the new composite material (Population 2)willhave a greater load-bearing capacity (improvement) thanallaircraft wings that are not constructed with the new material.
  • H0:Allaircraft wings constructed with the new composite material (population 2) willnothave a greater load-bearing capacity (improvement) thanallaircraft wings that are not constructed with the new material.
  • Population 1 characteristics: Sample data without new wing composite material: Random Sample Size,n= 50, Sample Mean, x-bar = 61 lbs/sq in, Sample Standard Deviation,s= 4 lbs/sq. in
  • Population 2 characteristics: Sample data with new wing composite material: Random Sample Size,n= 40, Sample Mean, x-bar = 64 lb/sq. in., Sample Standard Deviation,s= 3 lbs/sq. in.
  • Assume that the significant level,= 0.05
  • What is thep-value? Answer the research question in plain language. What is the effect size, i.e., "large", "medium", or "small"?

Answer

z = (x - (x bar)) / (standard deviation) this implies that

ForP(X < 5), z = (50 - 61)/4

= - 2.75

the value of -2.75 from the table

= 0.034

The p-value = 0.034

Testing against alternative hypothesis, HA:Allaircraft wings constructed with the new composite material willhave a greater load-bearing capacity (improvement) as compared toallaircraft wings that are not constructed with the new material. This is because using the null hypothesis, the composite aircraft wing load-bearing capacity as well as the general aircraft wings.

Since the p-value is less than 5%, the null hypothesis is rejected at a 5% level of significance. Therefore, there is enough proof to conclude that Allaircraft wings constructed with the new composite material (Population 2)willhave a greater load-bearing capacity (improvement) compared toallaircraft wings that are not constructed with the new material.
