Answer:
a. μ 3 ± 1.8 = [1.2,4.8]
b. The correct answer is option D. No, because the sample size is large enough.
Explanation:
a. The population mean can be determined using a confidence interval which is made up of a point estimate from a given sample and the calculation error margin. Thus:
μ±(t*s)/sqrt(n)
where:
μ = is the 95% confidence interval estimate
x_ = mean of the sample = 3
s = standard deviation of the sample = 5.8
n = size of the sample = 41
t = the t statistic for 95% confidence and 40 (n-1) degrees of freedom = 2.021
substituting all the variable, we have:
μ 3 ± (2.021*5.8)/sqrt(41) = 3 ± 1.8 = [1.2,4.8]
b. The correct answer is option D. No, because the sample size is large enough.
Using the the Central Limit Theorem which states that regardless of the distribution shape of the underlying population, a sampling distribution of size which is ≥ 30 is normally distributed.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let t represent the time for Tina to catch David.
Hence, considering the equation of linear motion S = ut + 1/2at^2..... 1
For David u = 28.0 m/s where 'a' is set to nought
S = ut
S = 28t.......2
For Tina consider equation 1
Where acceleration = 2.90m/s^2 and u is set at nought
S = 1/2×2.90 m/s×t^2.......3
Equate 2 and 3
28t = 1.45t^2
Divide through by t
28 = 1.45t
t = 28/1.45
t = 19.31seconds
Now put the value of t into equation 3
S = 1/2×2.90 m/s×t^2.......3
= 1.45×20×20
= 580m
Tina must have driven 580meters before passing David
Considering the equation of linear motion : V^2 = U^2+2as
Where u is set at nought
V^2 = 2as
V^2 = 2×2.9×580
V^2 = 3364
V = √3364
V = 58m/s
Her speed will be 58m/s
Answer:
red has a longer wavelength than yellow. Yellow has a longer wavelength than green.
Explanation
in the visible spectrum a color with high frequency contains shorter wavelength.In this case red color has high wavelength followed by yellow followed by green,blue and violet.
The Earth Science answers are shown below.
Explanation:
1. The movement of the sun will change the angle it has on the sky in 30 minutes, it is always moving from the east to the west, so in 30 minutes it would move more west, no matter at what time you make the experiment. From Earth, the Sun looks like it moves across the sky in the daytime and appears to disappear at night. This is because the Earth is spinning towards the east. The Earth spins about its axis, an imaginary line that runs through the middle of the Earth between the North and South poles
2. No, both marks are the same distance from the ground. the amount of stick above the mark will not affect the distance that the shadow of the mark moves at all.
The Sun's clockwise motion is an apparent motion caused by the rotation of the Earth. The counterclockwise rotation of the Earth in the Sun's light causes the shadow of the gnomon to move clockwise. As the Sun appears to move higher above the horizon before solar noon, the shadow grows shorter and shorter.
3. In the summer the shadows are shorter, and in the winter the shadows are longer. In the morning your shadow will point west and in the afternoon it will point east. If your shadow is long, it is near sunrise or sunset. Your shadow is shortest around noon.
4. If the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, then the Earth should rotate in the opposite direction from west to east (anti-clockwise). Earth's spin (or rotation) on its axis. Earth rotates or spins toward the east, and that's why the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars all rise in the east and make their way westward across the sky.
Answer:
D. The tea loses heat to the spoon causing the spoon to become warmer
Explanation:
When the silver spoon at a lower temperature than the tea, is added to the tea, it makes thermal contact. Hence, the heat transfer starts between the two until the equilibrium is reached. We know that the heat transfer takes place from the body with a higher temperature to a body with a lower temperature. As a result, the body with higher temperature loses heat and its temperature lowers down. While the body with a lower temperature gains heat and its temperature rises.
Therefore, the correct option is:
<u>D. The tea loses heat to the spoon causing the spoon to become warmer</u>
