The gravitational acceleration experienced by the bullet due to the earth's gravitational force is approximately equals to 9.81 m/s^2

At maximum point of height, vertical component of velocity equals to zero because it experiences a pause momentarily before coming back down.

Since -acceleration=(Final velocity-initial velocity) divided by time. Taking upwards to be positive, time taken= 10s

Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

There are many formulas that can be used to calculate time taken, or final velocity, or initial velocity, etc.

However, the easiest formula to use in this situation would be:

v = u + at (where v= final velocity; u= initial velocity; a= acceleration; t= time)

At the bullet's highest point, it will not have any vertical velocity, and since we are trying to find the time it takes to reach the highest point, we take the final velocity as zero.

Initial velocity was given as 98 m/s in the vertical direction.

Acceleration due to gravity is -9,8 m/s² (negative due to taking the up direction as positive).

Plugging in the values:

t = (v-u) / a

t = (0-98 m/s) / -9,8 m/s²

t = 10 seconds

Researchers are investigating whether people who exercise with a training partner have a greater increase, on average, in target
liubo4ka [24]

<u><em>[NOTE: THIS IS INCOMPLETE QUESTION. THE COMPLETE QUESTION: Researchers are investigating whether people who exercise with a training partner have a greater increase, on average, in targeted exercise intensity compared with people who exercise alone. Two methods of collecting data have been proposed. Method i: recruit volunteers who are willing to participate. Randomly assign each participant to exercise with a training partner or to exercise alone. Method ii: select a random sample of people from all the people who exercise at a community fitness center. Ask each person in the sample whether they use a training partner, and use the response to create the two groups.]</em></u>

In method I, the population generalization is almost random, hence it uses a random sample. In method II, the population generalization is less random, hence it uses a biased sample.

In terms of population generalization, the two methods differ. In method I where participants randomly assign each participant to exercise with a training partner or to exercise alone from the volunteers who are willing to participate, the sampling method is almost random as it includes people who are exercise regularly (in majority) and those who do not exercise regularly. Due to the randomized nature of the sample, the results can be applied to the entire population.

In method II where sampling is done by selecting a random sample of people from all the people who exercise at a community fitness center and determining if they use a training partner or exercise alone to create the two groups. As the people included in the sample are less random as they work out regularly at the fitness center. Hence, the sample is biased as it does not include any representation of people who do not work out regularly. The results cannot be used to apply to the entire population generalization.

Therefore, Population generalization is generalizing the population into two categories out of which one is more random in selection than the other.
