ogive graphs with worked examples

Ogive (Cumulative Frequency Curve) - There are two ways of constructing an ogive or cumulative frequency curve. (Ogive is pronounced as O-jive). The curve is usually of 'S' shape. We illustrate both methods by examples given below: Draw a 'less than' ogi..

(i) We plot the points with coordinates having abscissae as actual lower limits and ordinates as the cumulative frequencies, (70.5, 2), (60.5, 7), (50.5, 13), (40.5, 23), (30.5, 37), (20.5, 49), (10.5, 57), (0.5, 60) are the coordinates of the points. (ii) Join the points by a smooth curve. (iii) ..

Let us consider a situation where the force is acting along the X-axis and the magnitude of the force is varying with position 'x'. Thus, as the ball moves, the magnitude of the work done by the force, on the ball, changes. The adjacent graph shows the plot of a one dimens..

A plot of the cumulative frequency against the upper class boundary with the points joined by line segments. Any continuous cumulative frequency curve, including a cumulative frequency polygon, is called an ogive. There are two ways of constructing an ogive or cumulative f..

Identify the incorrect statement. I. The histogram is a graph that displays the data by using continuous vertical bars of various heights to represent the frequencies of classes. II. The frequency polygon is a graph that displays the data by using lines that connect points plott..

During high tide, when the level of water in the sea is high, sea-water flows into the reservoir of the barrage and turns the turbines. The turbines then turn the generator shaft to produce electricity. During low tide, the sea-water stored in the barrage reservoir is allowed to flow out into..

Slurry (mixture of equal quantities of biomass and water) is prepared in the mixing tank. The prepared slurry is fed into the inlet chamber of the digester through the inlet pipe. The plant is left unused for about two months and introduction of more slurry is stopped. During this period..

When pure and dry H 2 gas is passed through the inlet tube, a part of the gas gets adsorbed and the excess bubbles out through the perforations. Between the H 2 gas absorbed on the surface of the metal and H + of the solution, an equilibrium is established and an electrical double layer of oppo..

Ammonium chloride, splits into ammonium and chloride ions. The chloride ions (Cl - ) migrate to the zinc rod and deposit their negative charge at the zinc rod. Hence zinc becomes negatively charged and the reactions takes place in which zinc is converted to zinc chloride. The ammonium ions migrate..
