Why is it important to understand forces?
yanalaym [24]
If people never learned forces, there would be a major gap in the world and how it works, let alone in physics...
as much as you don't wanna admit it, force is everywhere and you see it if not use it EVERY day in your life, something as simple as driving a car down the street or too school, your using force of your wheels to move your car, which is moving you

Distinguish between nonsampling error and sampling error. Choose the correct answer below.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Non-sampling error is the error that results from​ under-coverage, non-response​ bias, response​ bias, or​ data-entry errors. Sampling error is the error that results because a sample is being used to estimate information about a population.

Explanation:

Sampling error is related to the variation between the true values of the sample and the population. If occurred, it is always random depending upon the sample chosen.

Non-sampling error can be random as well as non-random. Non-sampling error can occur irrespective of the sample chosen. It is related to the inappropriate analysis of the data.

Would it be easier to pull the tablecloth out from under a glass of water or an
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
Glass as it is heavier and by newtons first law and inertia the greater the mass = more inertia(resistance to chabge in motion) thus the glass has a greater mass than an empty paper cup and thus has greater inertia. So it would be easier to leave it in place
