I measure the thickness of a deck of 52 cards and get 0.590 in. a) If I now calculate the thickness of 1 card, what is my answer (including its uncertainty)? b) I can improve this result by measuring several decks to Tensor Products observables. In the Hilbert space C^2 x C^2 ...
Think of a situation in which it would be useful to transform a set of measurements of something into a set of z-scores.Z-Score:The z score is a standard normal variate and follows a normal distribution with mean zero and standard deviation...
of slightly different lengths. In the United Kingdom a nautical mile is defined as 6,080 feet (1,853 metres). In 1953 theUnited Statesswitched from the English standard to the metric, or international, standard of 1,852 metres (6,076 feet). With the international standard nautical mile, ...
In 1953 the United States switched from the English standard to the metric, or international, standard of 1,852 metres (6,076 feet). With the international standard nautical mile, knots were spaced about 14.4 metres (approximately 47.25 feet) along the rope. If the first knot appeared as ...
