What is the formula to work out max walking speed?
square root of l x g

3 of 30
What is the quadratic formula?
x= -b+/- square root of b squared -4ac all over 2a
4 of 30
What is the sine rule?
sin (angle)= opposite/hypotenuse

How would you work out the resultant velocity of a swimmer taking into account their velocity and that of the current working perpendicular to them?
Using tip to tail method draw a triangle with one of the sides labelled as R, use Pythagoras to work out the length of R.
7 of 30
Taking into account the current on the swimmer how would you work out how much further the swimmer had to travel?
Use trig to work out the angle created by drawing a triangle using the tip to tail method

What do you use to work out the horizontal component of initial velocity?
uCOS(angle)
9 of 30
What do you use to work out the vertical component of initial velocity?
uSIN(angle)

What SUVAT equations could you use to work out displacement?
s=ut+1/2at(squared). V(squared)=u(squared)+2as. s=ut-1/2gt(squared). V(squared)= U(squared)-2gs
11 of 30
What is the first SUVAT equation?
V=u+at
12 of 30
What is the second SUVAT equation?
s=ut+1/2at(squared)

What is a radian?
The angle in the centre of a circle
18 of 30
How many degrees is 1 radian?
57.3
19 of 30
How do you work out a radian in a circle?
s/r (s=arc length)
20 of 30
How do you convert degrees to radians?
Degrees X pi / 180
21 of 30
How do you convert radians to degrees?
radians X 180 / pi
22 of 30
What does central difference mean?
A central value in a probability distribution
23 of 30
What is probability?
The number of ways an event can occur in a sample space divided by the number of members in a sample space
24 of 30
How do you work out standard error for a data set?
Standard deviation divided y the square root of the number of data points in the set
25 of 30
When can you use a parametric test?
When continuous variables have a normal distribution, when spread of groups being tested is different , if the data set is skewed BUT sample size is large
26 of 30
What is the assumption which goes along with parametric tests?
Data is normally distributed
27 of 30
What can you do if your data set isn't easily distributed?
Transform the data through logs, square roots and arcsine or use non-parametric tests
28 of 30
What does the chi squared test compare?
Observed data with expected data
29 of 30
What is a poisson distribution?
A discrete frequency distribution resulting from events happening randomly
