Answer: representative sample

Explanation:

A representative sample can be defined as a subset of the population. This sample includes subgroups that reflect the features of the larger group and are chosen for a specific purpose of study. For example, a classroom with 60 students having 30 females and 30 males, can generate a representative sample based on the gender differences.

If the new moon happens on January 15th, what shape will it be on February 6th?
Jobisdone [24]

-- From January 15 to February 6 is a period of 22 days.

-- The period of the full cycle of moon phases is 29.53 days.

-- So those dates represent (22/29.53) = 74.5% of a full cycle of phases.

-- That's almost exactly 3/4 of a full cycle, so on February 6, the moon would be almost exactly at <em>Third Quarter</em>.  That's the <em>left half of a disk </em>(viewed from the northern hemisphere).

A high speed train is traveling at a speed of 44.7 m/s when the engineer sounds the 415 Hz warning horn. The speed of sound is 3
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed of the source of sound = v = 44.7 m/s

Speed of sound = V = 343 m/s

a) Apparent  frequency as the train approaches = f =  [V /(V -v) ] × f

= [343 / (343 - 44.7) ] × 415  = 477.18 Hz

Wave length =  λ = v / f = 343 / 477.18 = 0.719 m

b) Frequency heard as the train leaves = f ' =  [V / ( V + v) ] f

                                                                     = [343 / { 343 + 44.7 ) ] x 415

                                                                      = 367.2 Hz

Wavelength when leaving = v / f = 343 / 367.2 = 0.934 m

What is the current in a series circuit that has two resistors (4.0 ohms and 7.5 ohms) and a power source of 9.0 volts?
Olin [163]

-- First, we have to decide how to handle the two resistors.

The effective resistance of resistors in series is the sum
of their individual resistances.  That is, they act like a single
resistor, whose resistance is the sum of all of them.

So in this question, the 4.0 ohms and the 7.5 ohms act like a
single resistor of 11.5 ohms.

-- The current in the circuit is

                       (the supply voltage) / (the total resistance)

                   =                (9.0 volts)  /  (11.5 ohms)

                   =                      0.783... Ampere        (rounded)

A rigid tank contains 1 kg of air (ideal gas) at 15 °C and 210 kPa. A paddle wheel supplies work input to the air such that fina
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

-58.876 kJ

Explanation:

m = mass of air = 1 kg

T₁ = Initial temperature = 15°C

T₂ = Final temperature = 97°C

Cp = Specific heat at constant pressure = 1.005 kJ/kgk

Cv = Specific heat at constant volume = 0.718 kJ/kgk

W = Work done

Q = Heat = 0 (since it is not mentioned we are considering adiabatic condition)

ΔU = Change in internal energy

Q = W+ΔU

⇒Q = W+mCvΔT

⇒0 = W+mCvΔT

⇒W = -mCvΔT

⇒Q = -1×0.718×(97-15)

⇒Q = -58.716 kJ
