Suppose that you had the following data set. 500 200 250 275 300 Suppose that the value 500 was a typo, and it was suppose to be

negative (-500). How would the value of the standard deviation change?

Answer:

\bar X_B = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 X_i}{5} =\frac{500+200+250+275+300}{5}=\frac{1525}{5}=305

s_B = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 (X_i-\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=\sqrt{\frac{(500-305)^2 +(200-305)^2 +(250-305)^2 +(275-305)^2 +(300-305)^2)}{5-1}} = 115.108

\bar X_A = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 X_i}{5} =\frac{-500+200+250+275+300}{5}=\frac{525}{5}=105

s_A = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 (X_i-\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=\sqrt{\frac{(-500-105)^2 +(200-105)^2 +(250-105)^2 +(275-105)^2 +(300-105)^2)}{5-1}} = 340.221

The absolute difference is:

Abs = |340.221-115.108|= 225.113

If we find the % of change respect the before case we have this:

\% Change = \frac{|340.221-115.108|}{115.108} *100 = 195.57\%

So then is a big change.

Step-by-step explanation:

The subindex B is for the before case and the subindex A is for the after case

Before case (with 500)

For this case we have the following dataset:

500 200 250 275 300

We can calculate the mean with the following formula:

\bar X_B = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 X_i}{5} =\frac{500+200+250+275+300}{5}=\frac{1525}{5}=305

And the sample deviation with the following formula:

s_B = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 (X_i-\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=\sqrt{\frac{(500-305)^2 +(200-305)^2 +(250-305)^2 +(275-305)^2 +(300-305)^2)}{5-1}} = 115.108

After case (With -500 instead of 500)

For this case we have the following dataset:

-500 200 250 275 300

We can calculate the mean with the following formula:

\bar X_A = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 X_i}{5} =\frac{-500+200+250+275+300}{5}=\frac{525}{5}=105

And the sample deviation with the following formula:

s_A = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 (X_i-\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=\sqrt{\frac{(-500-105)^2 +(200-105)^2 +(250-105)^2 +(275-105)^2 +(300-105)^2)}{5-1}} = 340.221

And as we can see we have a significant change between the two values for the two cases.

The absolute difference is:

Abs = |340.221-115.108|= 225.113

If we find the % of change respect the before case we have this:

\% Change = \frac{|340.221-115.108|}{115.108} *100 = 195.57\%

So then is a big change.

What Force would be needed to extend a spring with a spring constant k=7 N/m that extends<br>0.3m?​
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Force  =  - 2.1 Newton

Step-by-step explanation:

According to question ,

The value of Spring constant , K = 7  N/m   Newton per meter

And the spring is extended up to 0.3 meter

The Force experience on the spring is calculated from the Hook's Law

<u>The principal state that , the force applied on spring to extend or compress the spring to some distance is proportion to that distance. </u>

Let the force be F

So, F =  - K X

where K is spring constant and X is its displacement

Negative sign shows displacement of spring once it is stretched

And K is spring constant

So ,Force = ( - ) 7 × 0.3

I.e Force  =  - 2.1 Newton       Answer
