Texts: DATAfile: SouthShore In the first year of operation, sales revenue increased from $1,084,000 to $1,176,000 in the most recent year. The following data shows the quarterly sales revenue in thousands of dollars. Quarter Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 1 20 37 75 92 176 2 100 136 155 202 282 3 175 245 326 384 445 4 13 26 48 82 181 (a) Construct a time series plot. What type of pattern exists in the data? O The time series plot shows only seasonal effects. O The time series plot shows neither a linear trend nor seasonal effects. O The time series plot shows both a linear trend and seasonal effects. O The time series plot shows only a linear trend. (b) Use the following dummy variables to develop an estimated regression equation for the time series data (in $1,000s) to account for seasonal effects in the data. x1 = 1 if quarter 1, 0 otherwise; x2 = 1 if quarter 2, 0 otherwise; x3 = 1 if quarter 3, 0 otherwise. Quarter 1 forecast Quarter 2 forecast Quarter 3 forecast Quarter 4 forecast $5,000 $5,000 $5,000 $5,000 Let t = 1 refer to the observation in quarter 1 of year 1; t = 2 refer to the observation in quarter 2 of year 1; and t = 20 refer to the observation in quarter 4 of year 5. Using the dummy variables defined in part (b) and t, develop an estimated regression equation for the time series data (in $1,000s) to account for seasonal effects and any linear trend in the time series. (Round your numerical values to one decimal place.) .. (e) Based on the seasonal effects in the data and linear trend estimated in part (c), compute estimates of quarterly sales (in $1,000s) for year 6. (Round your answers to the nearest thousand dollars.) Quarter 1 forecast: $5,000 Quarter 2 forecast: $5,000 Quarter 3 forecast: $5,000 Quarter 4 forecast: $5,000 (f) O The model in part (b) appears to be more effective since there is no linear trend visible in the data. O The model in part (b) appears to be more effective since it has a higher MSE than the model in part (d). O The model in part (d) appears to be more effective since it has more variables than the model in part (b). O The model in part (d) appears to be more effective since it has a lower MSE than the model in part (b).

Question 3 (5 marks) a) The reactive load connected to a synchronous generator changes from being inductive in nature to being capacitive. State how the current supplied to the field windings of the synchronous generator must change, in order to maintain the load voltage constant. b) The generator of a hydro power station is connected to a load and is operating at its rated specification. Suddenly the excitation provided to the field windings is lost, due to damage to the brushes connecting the field winding to its dc supply. Explain whether, or not, this situation is dangerous. c) A solar generation system is connected to its load via an overhead transmission line. The overhead transmission line is replaced by an underground transmission line. With no change to the load, it is found that current drawn from the solar generation system is increased. Give a reason why.

Moderator: Mrs D. lonescu Date: 17/05/2019 Time: 10:30-12:30 Question 1 A front-mounted transverse engine motor car weighs 22 kN. It has a wheel base of 3 m, track width 2 m and height of centre of gravity 300 mm above the ground level and lies midway between the front and rear axles. Each road wheel has a moment of inertia 3.2 kg.m² and an effective diameter of 0.0 m. The rotating parts of the engine and the transmission are equivalent to a flywheel of mass 78 kg with a radius of gyration 0.1m. The engine flywheel rotates in the same sense as the road wheel at 2500 r.p.m. The ratio of the engine speed to the speed of rotation of the wheels is 4:1. If the motor car is taking a left turn of radius of 40 m at 60 km/h: 1.1) Investigate the effects of gyroscopic and centrifugal couples on the car; and 1.2) Determine the total vertical reaction at each wheel of the car. (21) (8) Question 2 The crank.effort diagram for an engine is represented by the equation [29]
