An older-model car accelerates from 0 to speed v in 9.0 s. A newer, more powerful sports car of the same mass accelerates from 0 to 3v in the same time period. Assuming the energy coming from the engine appears only as kinetic energy of the cars, compare the power of the two cars. (Take Pnew and Pold as the powers of the new car and old car, respectively.)

7. see worksheet 1 for values of variables x1, x2 and x3 and answer the following questions: a. for each variable find the mean, median, coefficient of skewness, range and population standard deviation. b. compared to variable x1, how are the mean and median affected by extreme values (outliers) seen in x2 and x3. c. is the median or mean the better measure of location for x2 and x3? explain. d. explain the differences in the magnitudes of the skewness coefficients for the three variables. e. what is the relationship between the range and standard deviation looking across the three variables?
