Answer:

0.845\ \text{N}

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity at sea level = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

R = Radius of Earth = 6371000 m

h = Altitude of observatory = 4205 m

Change in acceleration due to gravity due to change in altitude is given by

g_h=g(1+\dfrac{h}{R})^{-2}\\\Rightarrow g_h=9.81\times(1+\dfrac{4205}{6371000})^{-2}\\\Rightarrow g_h=9.797\ \text{m/s}^2

Weight at sea level

W=mg\\\Rightarrow W=65\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow W=637.65\ \text{N}

Weight at the given height

W_h=mg_h\\\Rightarrow W_h=65\times 9.797\\\Rightarrow W_h=636.805\ \text{N}

Change in weight W_h-W=636.805-637.65=-0.845\ \text{N}

Her weight reduces by 0.845\ \text{N}.

What is a general requirement on a sensor for the sensor to have minimal dynamic error? (The sensor is not limited to be a first
Andrews [41]

Answer and Explanation:

The criteria defined for the instruments that changes rapidly with time, ae called dynamic characteristics. These characteristics are namely

1. Speed of response  

2. Fidelity

3. Dynamic error

4. Measuring lag

Speed of response

It is the speed with which a measurement system responds to changes in the measured quantity.

Fidelity

It is the degree to which a measurement system indicates changes in the measured quantity without dynamic error.

Dynamic error

It is the difference between the true value of the quantity changing with time and the value indicated by the measurement system if no static error is assumed. It is also known as measurement error.

Measuring lag

It is the delay in the response of a measurement system to changes in the measured quantity. It is divided into two as follows.

Is the sample mean always the most frequently occurring value? If so, explain why. If not, give an example.
Ugo [173]

Answer:

No the sample mean is not the most frequently occurring data.

Explanation:

If we take a number of observation in an experiment the most frequently repeating value is known as mode of data.

Mean of data is the the value to which all the given observational values are closest.

Consider a given set of observations as

1,1,1,1,1,5,4,3,4

The Mean of the above data set is\bar{x}=\frac{1+1+1+1+1+1+5+4+3+4}{10}=2 While as the most often repeating value is 1 which is not equal to mean
