Next, let$$s model the failure time as a function of temperature. The widely used Arrhenius model gives

the failure time tf as a function of temperature T$,$ measured in degrees Kelvin $(273\mathrm{.}16+$ degrees Celsius$)$ as:

tf $=$ Aexp

$$H

kT

where k is Boltzmann$$s constant $($k $=8\mathrm{.}617105$ in eV$/$deg Kelvin$),$ A is a constant and $$H denotes the

activation energy $($eV$).$ Show that, if you define X $=1$

kT $($where T is again in degrees Kelvin!$),$ then you can

write a linear equation for the log failure time ln tf as a function of X$.$ What are the intercept and slope as

a function of A$,$H$?$
