Question 1) I went to the Website "Random.org" and asked it to produce 100  random 20-point samples of a Gaussian distribution. Then I pasted the 100 random datasets into Prism and tested each for Normality using Prism's three Normality tests for Gaussian shape. Here are the results.

KS Normality test

Passed Normality test (alpha=0.05)? 

Yes      Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes

Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes            Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      Yes      No       Yes      Yes

 

1A)  Explain why there are 17 tests that conclude that individual data sets are Not Gaussian when we know for certain that they were sampled from a Gaussian distribution? Do the false positives indicate a problem with the random number generator or normality tests?

Question 2)One of the 100 datasets described in the previous question gave a p value of 0.0001 in the D'Agostino Pearson Normality test. These are the values:

 

27.08300

26.11000

29.04000

26.75600

26.83200

26.28300

26.96700

26.25300

26.65600

26.33800

27.36900

26.35600

26.19100

26.98000

27.34200

26.42800

27.17000

26.41100

27.15200

26.53300

 

2A) Determine if there is an outlier in the dataset by applying Chauvenet's Criterion.

2B) If any points satisfy Chauvenet'scriertion, remove them and retest the dataset for Normality. Does it now pass the D'Agostino Pearson test? If no points can be rejected, show that that the dataset above fails the Normality test.

Question 3) Propagate errors for the following:

3A)  271 +/- 12  (SD, N=6)   x  123 +/- 25 (SD, N=6)

3B)  271 +/- 12  (SD, N=6)   /  123 +/- 25 (SD, N=6)

3C)   271 +/- 12  (SD, N=6)   +  123 +/- 25 (SD, N=6)

9D)  271 +/- 12  (SD, N=6)   -  123 +/- 25 (SD, N=6)
