Answer:

sample size if he uses a previous estimate of 32​% is 523

sample size if he does not use any prior​ estimates is 601

Step-by-step explanation:

estimate E = 4 percentage = 0.04

confidence Cl = 95% = 0.95

previous estimate p = 32% = 0.32

q = 1 - 0.32 = 0.68

to find out

size of sample

solution

first we calculate z value for 95% confidence E = 0.04 is 1.96

from probability P(-1.96 < z < 1.96) = 0.95)

here z = 1.96

so in 1st part size of sample we know

E = z × \sqrt{pq/n}

put all value E, z p and q and we get n

n = (z/E)² ×p×q

n = (1.96/0.04)² ×0.32×0.68

n = 523

sample size if he uses a previous estimate of 32​% is 523

now in 2nd part we take p = 0.5

so n will be

n = (z/E)² ×p×q

n = (1.96/0.04)² ×0.5×0.5

n = 601

sample size if he does not use any prior​ estimates is 601

Step-by-step explanation:

A) as you can see there is no current flowing in a bar magnet so (incorrect)

B) Lines of magnetic field is going in A-->B direction so it have starting and ending points.(incorrect)

C) Yes whenever a magnetic object is placed near the another magnetic object they either attract or repell so they have a force in a form of push and pull [correct]

D)No because magnetic field lines goes from North--> South so A is the South pole [ incorrect]

E) Yes it will point always towards North pole of the magnet [correct]

F) yes it depends upon the density of field lines[correct]

G)No the near the magnet is it becomes more stronger as compared to magnet kept far.(incorrect)

So option C E F are correct

Hope this helps

Have a great day
