Infrared waves are used in heat lamps and other heat sensing devices. Infrared waves or commonly known as Infrared radiations (IR) is the type of electromagnetic radiation we encounter most in our everyday life. Heat lamps are electrical devices which emit infrared radiation.
Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei come very close and then collide at a very high speed and join to form a new nucleus. This process is important to stars because they get their energy from the nuclear fusion process
Part a:
= 56
= 60
= 63
The quartiles are found by finding the medium of the data, and then the mediums of the two different data sets on either side of the medium. The
is the overall medium,
is the medium of the first half, and
is the medium of the second half.
-> How is the medium found? When finding the medium we put the values in order least to greatest and pick the middle value.

Part b:
The range is 7.
The interquartile range is the range of numbers between
and
. In other words, it is 50% of the data, directly in the middle.
This becomes 63 - 56 = 7
Part c:
79 is an outlier.
It is an outlier because it is 1.5 above or below (in this case, above) the interquartile range.
-> 63 + (7 +
) ≤ 79
-> 63 + 10.5 ≤ 79
-> 73.5 ≤ 79
Have a nice day!
I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly.

Yes!
I think there are two ways you could go with this answer:
1) Acceleration is the change in velocity over time, it can be negative or positive. If you have an object that is already moving forwards in a straight line and give it a constant negative acceleration, it will slow down and then start going in reverse.
2)Velocity is a vector, meaning it has both magnitude and direction. In the example above, the acceleration is due to a change in magnitude, or speed (from +ve to -ve) but not a change in direction. Something that has constant speed but is changing direction is also accelerating (like something that is orbiting). You could use the earth as an example, which is constantly accelerating due to moving in a circle around the sun. At any time in the year you can say that in half a year's time the earth's direction will be reversed.
