The heat capacity and the specific heat
Answer: (a) Z-score are 1 and -1.2 for northern and southern regions, respectively.
Explanation: <u>Z-score</u> is how many standard deviations a data is from the population mean or how far a data point is from the mean.
The z-score is calculated by the following:

where
x is the data point
μ is population mean
σ is standard deviation
For the <u>northern</u> <u>region</u> birds:
μ = 10, σ = 3, x = 13

z = 1
The z-score for birds living in the northern region is 1, which means it is 1 standard deviation <em>above the mean</em>.
For the southern region:
μ = 16, σ = 2.5, x = 13

z = -1.2
The z-score for southern living birds is -1.2, meaning it is 1.2 standard deviations <em>below the mean</em>.
The rays of light coming from the Sun are parallel to each other, so when they are reflected by the concave piece of glass (which acts as a concave mirror) they converge into the focus of the mirror, which is

The radius of curvature of a concave mirror is twice its focal length, so in this case it is:
