A political candidate has asked his/her assistant to conduct a poll to determine the percentage of people in the community that
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The size of the sample needed = 67.65

Explanation:

Given that :

The margin of error = 10% = 0.10

The confidence level = 90% = 0.90

Level of significance = 1 - 0.90 = 0.10

At ∝ = 0.10

Z_{\alpha/2}= Z_{0.10/2} = 1.645

Since the proportion of people that supported him/her is not given, we assumed p = 0.50

The margin of error formula can be expressed as:

M.O.E = Z_{\alpha/2} \times \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}

0.10 = 1.645 \times \sqrt{{\dfrac{0.5(1-0.5)}{n}

Squaring both sides; we have:

0.10^2 = 1.645^2 \times {\dfrac{0.5(1-0.5)}{n}

0.01 = 2.706025 \times \dfrac{0.25}{n}

n= 2.706025 \times \dfrac{0.25}{0.01 }

n = 67.65

Therefore, the required sample size = 67.65

assume that a raindrop's volume is 1 cubic centimeter. in centimeters, what would be the depth of water in a pan whose square ba
Verdich [7]

The volume of a fluid that flows past a point per unit time through an area is known as the flow rate, Q

The depth of water in the pan after one hour is <u>0.72 meters</u>

Reason:

The given parameters are;

The volume occupied by one rain drop = 1 cm³

The area of the square base of the pan = 1 meter by 1 meter

Duration of the rain, t = 1 hour

Rate at which rain falls  = 2 raindrops per second

Region where the rain falls = 10 cm by 10 cm

Depth of water in the pan after 1 hour = Required

Solution:

The number of seconds in 1 hour = 3,600 seconds

Number of raindrops in a 10 cm by 10 cm region, <em>n</em>, is given as follows;

n = 10 drops × 10 drops = 100 drops

Number of raindrops in 1 hour = 2 × 100 drops/s × 3,600 s = 720,000 drops

Volume of water in the rain, V = 720,000 drops × 1 cm³/drop = 720,000 cm³

Area of the pan = 1 m × 1 m = 100 cm × 100 cm = 10,000 cm²

Cross sectional area of the pan = 10,000 cm²

  • Depth \ of \ water \ in  \ the \ pan = \dfrac{Volume \ of \ rain \ water}{Cross \ sectional \ area \ of \ pan}

Depth \ of \ water \ in  \ the \ pan = \dfrac{720,000 \ cm^3}{10,000 \ cm^2} = 72 \ cm

Therefore;

  • The depth of water in the pan after one hour, d = 72 cm = 0.72 m
