Suppose that you purchased a smartphone some time in the past. you are told that the number of years from when it was purchased till when it fails is a random variable with distribution exp(1/4) (regardless of when it was purchased). now, suppose that the smartphone happens to fail today. we wish to estimate how long ago it was purchased. let x represent the number of years ago it was purchased (so x > 0 a. let y represent the observation of when it failed, relative to today, so the given observation is y = 0; if the failure were to have taken place 1 year ago, we would have y = -1. assume that the a priori distribution of x is uniform on [3,6]. a. find fy|x (y|x) for x > =0. b. find the maximum-likelihood estimate of x given y = 0. c. find the minimum mean-squared-error estimate of x given y = 0. d. find the maximum a posteriori probability estimate of x given y = 0. e. find the linear minimum mean-squared-error estimate of x given y = 0.

Describe one experiment in which the glass transition temperature and melting temperature of a totally amorphous thermoplastic material can be determined. show the relevant experimental results in a diagram which should be properly annotated with the two temperatures clearly marked. what is likely to happen to the curve in the diagram if the amorphous polymer is replaced by a thermosetting type?

An open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid entering at inlet 1 with t? = 40°c and pl = 1 .2 mpa. water vapor att2-200°c and p2 = 1.2 mpa enters at inlet 2. saturated liquid water exits with a pressure of pa 1.2 mpa. neglect heat transfer with the surroundings and all kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate of steam at inlet 2 if the mass flow rate of liquid water at inlet 1 is given as 2 kg/s.

An external consultant recommends that a plant installs a bank of capacitors for power factor correction. this will reduce the peak electrical demand charges by an average of 93 kw every month. the plant current pays $13 per kw in peak demand charges. the capacitor bank will include 223 kw of fixed capacitors, and 183 of variable capacitors. the fixed capacitors cost $59 per kw, and the variable capacitors will cost $65 per kw. the consultant charges 21% of the equipment costs to install the capacitors. because this project will reduce the demand for the electric utility, they are prepared to provide a one-time rebate of $42 per kw of reduced demand. what is the simple payback period for this project (in years)?
