An astronomer makes three one-second measurements of a star’s brightness, counting
4 photons in the first, 81 in the second, and 9 in the third. what is the best
estimate of the average photon arrival rate and its uncertainty?
compute this (a) by using equation (2.18), then (b) by noting that a total of
94 photons have arrived in 3 seconds.
explain why these two methods give such different results. which method is the
correct one? is there anything peculiar about the data that would lead you to
question the validity of either method?
y_c = σ²∑(y_i/ σ²_i) 2.18
uncertainty
σ² = 1/∑ (1/ σ²_i

As seen in a us weather map, the h (or high) and l (or low) symbols indicate regions where surface air pressures are high or low, respectively, compared to surrounding areas. an h is plotted where the air pressure is highest and an l is plotted where the air pressure is lowest. proceeding outward and away from the center of a high pressure system, the air pressure "

Why does the equilibrium position of the spring change when a mass is added to the spring? will the mass oscillate around the new equilibrium position of the spring or the previous position without a mass attached to the spring? if the equilibrium position of the spring changes by 20 cm (assuming no initial mass) when a mass is added to the spring with constant 4.9 kg/s^2, what is the mass of the object attached to the spring?
