Due to different media forms, New Zealand has experienced numerous transformations over time. There is a range of different media forms such as television and print media, however radio is an important one to be discussed, along with the negative impacts it has brought through the transformations. The transformations include deregulation, privatization and commercialization. It is important to consider how these transformations have then in turn negatively affected the media’s ability to…
different scenarios/major events which impacted allele frequencies of the bunnies. The hypothesis for Part A was that if there is no natural selection, then the allele frequency for the bunnies will not change. This proved to be true, given that all the Generation 1 bunnies were unaffected. For example, in all charts for Generation 1, the total alleles were 100 and alleles F and f both equally had 50. This demonstrates that if the allele frequency did not change, then the bunny population had…
a hypothetical population of Paenibacillus bacteria (Whitlock and Schluter, 2015, pg 146). In the examples, a single colony is randomly sampled form the population. Since the probability is a bell-shape, the hypothetical population is a normal distribution. (Figure re-created using Microsoft Word shapes and…
Before proceeding with any statistical procedures, I conducted a preliminary analysis using descriptive statistics and frequency analysis. Both were used to assess the characteristics of the data, check for violations of assumptions underlying the statistical techniques, as well as address research specific data requirements (Pallant, 2013). Using frequency analysis, I checked the minimum, maximum, and range of the categorical variables to identify errors and address the same. Additionally, I…
The Pareto analysis was formed by Vilifredo Pareto. He studied about the unequal distribution of wealth in his country and come out with a formula. He observed that 20% of the people owned 80% of the total wealth. Few years later, Joseph Juran applied the principle to quality-control. This principle applies 80/20 rule where 20% of something is responsible for 80% of the results. A Pareto analysis used to analyse situation and monitor and evaluate results of any significant improvements or…
Also, with fluctuation of active and reactive power of turbine (yaw error), wind turbulence, switching operations, flicker is caused. Flicker is an important PQ aspect in wind turbine generating system. It is defined as fluctuation of voltage in a frequency 10-35 Hz. Flicker is considered as a serious drawback and limits the maximum amount of wind power generation that can be connected to the power grid. Many factors affect flicker emission of grid connected wind turbines during continuous…
are correlated. Regression is better suited for studying functional dependencies between factors. It creates an equation where in if one variable is known, the other can be estimated. Nonparametric tests No assumptions are made about the data distribution. Ordinal properties of data are used instead of absolute data values. Statistical significance with a nonparametric test is difficult to be…
Formative indicators are used to form a superordinate construct where the individual indicators are weighted according to their relative importance in forming the construct (Chin, 1998). Moreover, the normality of data distribution not assumed, thus data with non-normal distributions can be conducted in structural equation modeling since its application is performed in a non parametric way. PLS is also recommended when either cross-sectional, survey, or quasi-experimental research designs are…
writers believe that the distribution of income among all residents in the United States is at its worst. The writers in this unit are aware of the unfair income distribution in United States therefore, these writers would support the raise of taxes on the wealthy. Throughout his essay “We are the 99.9 percent”, Paul Krugman uses politics and statistics to support his argument that the 0.01% should be paying more tax. Krugman uses these statistics to explain the unequal distribution of wealth…
Fig. 3. Schematic Diagram of Power Line Guardians (“PLG”) PLGs are also used to give the real-time data on the lines such as: line current, conductor temperature, frequency, sag [17]-[21]. Fig. 4. The PLG communications system. The diagram (Fig.4) shows the PLG communications system. PLGs (blue) control the power flows on the lines. Super PLGs (red) can control both the power flows and the PLGs. These Super PLGs are also used to communicate with Energy Management Systems (EMS) and allow…
