Correct statement about size of wire to produce larger extension
I see. I need to consider breaking stress What about the formula: Young Modulus = stress / strain? Does it work under large stress because I am thinking the breaking stress of both wire is the same so the strain on the second wire must be constant and can be achieved by using longer wire? Thanks- songoku

Correct statement about size of wire to produce larger extension
The answer is (B) but I don't really understand why. Based on formula of Young Modulus: $$x=\frac{FL}{AE}$$ The second wire made of the same material so it means they have same Young Modulus. Larger extension means larger value of ##x## so to get larger value of ##x## we can increase ##F## and...- songoku

Correct statement about random process of radioactive decay
The correct answer is (C) but I don't understand why (B) is wrong. Isn't (B) also the meaning of random process? I though (B) and (C) are both correct. Thanks- songoku

Which one is correct statement regarding lightning?
If that is the case, there is discharging between the clouds so can I say there is induction between clouds? Thanks- songoku

Which one is correct statement regarding lightning?
My answer is (B) but the correct answer is (D). I don't understand why there is induction between clouds and ground. I thought there will only be separation of charges in ground (polarization) due to large negative charges in the clouds causing the ground below the clouds will be positively...- songoku

Is this biased or unbiased Method of Moments Estimator?
(i) $$E(X)=\bar X$$ $$(-1)\left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)+(1)\left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)=\bar X$$ $$\bar X=0$$ Then: $$\text{Var} (X)=\bar {X^2}-(\bar X)^2$$ $$(1)\left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)+(1)\left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)=\bar {X^2} - 0$$ $$\theta = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} X_{i}^{2}$$...- songoku

Speed of moth related to Doppler Effect
I treat this question as two cases of Doppler effect. (1) When the sound wave travels from bat to moth Speed of sound = 222 x 1.5 = 333 m/s Frequency received by moth: $$f_1=\frac{333+v}{333}\times 222$$ (2) When the sound wave is reflected from moth back to bat Frequency received by bat...- songoku
