FINAL ASSESSMENT #3

INSTRUCTIONS: Answer the following problem. Late submission of the answers will
mean deduction of points.

Problem Statement. The effective life (in hours) of batteries is compared by material type
(1, 2 or 3) and operating temperature: Low (-10˚C), Medium (20˚C) or High (45˚C).
Twelve batteries are randomly selected from each material type and are then randomly
allocated to each temperature level. The resultinlife of all 36 batteries is shown below:

Research question: Is there difference in mean life of the batteries for differing material
type and operating temperature levels?

Formulating our Hypothesis:

Ho: There is no significant difference in mean battery life of batteries when grouped
according to operating temperature
Ha: There is a significant difference in mean battery life of batteries when grouped
according to operating temperature

according to material type
Ha: There is a significant difference in mean battery life of batteries when grouped
according to material type

Ho: There is no significant difference in mean battery life for group combinations of
material type and temperature level
Ha: There is a significant difference in mean battery life for group combinations of material
type and temperature level

The error term is Mean Square(Error) = 675.213.
*. The mean difference is significant at the .05 level.

A two way ANOVA was conducted to determine the effect of temperature and material
type to effective life of batteries. Results reveal that Material Type has a significant
effect on Effective Life(F(2,27)=7.91, p<0.01, n2=0.37). Post Hoc Analysis using LSD
with Alpha Value of 0.05 reveal that Material Type 3(M=125.08, SD=35.77) has
significantly higher effective life than Material Type 2(M=108.33, SD=49.47) and
Material Type 1(M=83.17, SD=48.59). In the same manner, Material Type 2 has
significantly higher effective life than Material Type 1.

Relatively, Temperature has a significant main effect on Effective Life(F(2,27)=28.97,

p<0.01, n2=0.68). Low(-10C) (M=144.83, SD=31.69) Temperature has significantly
higher effective life than Medium(20C)(M=107.58, SD=42.88) Temperature and
High(45C) Temperature(M=64.17, SD=25.67). In the same manner, Medium(20C)
Temperature has significantly higher effective life than High(45C) Temperature.

Results also reveal that material type and temperature have a significant interaction
(F(4,27)=3.56, p=0.02, n2=0.35). For Material Type 1 and 2, Low Temperature(-10C)
has the highest effective life(M=134.75, SD=45.35) compared with Medium
Temperature(20C)(M=57.25, SD=23.60) and High Temperature(45C)(M=57.50,
SD=26.85). For Material Type 2, Low Temperature(-10C) has the highest effective life
(M=155.75, SD=25.62) followed by Medium Temperature(20C)( M=119.75, SD=75) and
the lowest being high temperature(45C)( M=49.50, SD=19.26 ). (For Material Type 3,
there is only a minimal difference between low temperature(-10C) (M=144.00,
SD=25.97) and medium temperature(20C)(M=145.75, SD=22.54), but both have higher
effective life than high temperature(45C)(M=85.50, SD=19.28).

Hence, there is a strong evidence that the mean battery life varies with material used
and operating temperature. The presence of a significant interaction between material
type and temperature means that the way battery effective life varies for material type
depends on temperature and the way battery effective life varies with temperature
depends on the material type.

Overall, given p<0.05 for temperature, we reject Null Hypothesis 1. p<0.05 for material
type, we reject Null Hypothesis 2. Lastly, given p<0.05 for material type and
temperature interaction, we reject null hypothesis 3.
