Read the sections at the beginning of the textbook, which concern Statistical Thinking and the Introduction to Statistics. Then complete the following requirements.
1. Write a short, simple explanation of what statistics is. (Please use APA formatting.)
2. Define the following terms and give an example of each: Population, Sample, and Random Sample
3. What are the advantages of using a random sample? What are the disadvantages?
4. Define or explain the following terms: An experiment, a Survey, Hidden bias.
5. Write a one-page, double-spaced, introduction of yourself. You might include such things as: your major, place of work, background in math, any statistics involved in your work, and your plans after you complete your education at Regis University. (Please use APA formatting.) You may copy and paste your original Introduction.

Calculate the magntude of the constant acceleration
: A car traveling at 35.0 km/h speeds up to 45.0 km/h in a time of 5.00s. The same car later speeds up from 65.0 km/h to 75.0km/h in a time of 5.00s. Calculate the magntude of the constant acceleration for each of these intervals.

Find final velocity of electron after electron accelerated
: An electron was moving at a velocity 5x107 ms-1. A potential difference of 300V is applied in such a way that the electron was accelerated to a higher velocity. Find the final velocity of the electron after the electron is accelerated.
