Question
If the correlation coefficient between random tidal fluctuations and random aquifer consolidation is 0.000021, then
(a) Tidal fluctuation and consolidation are statistically independent
(b) Consolidation is correlated to tidal fluctuation
(c) Tidal fluctuation is uncorrelated to consolidation
(d) Tidal fluctuation causes consolidation
(e) (a) and (c)
(a) Tidal fluctuation and consolidation are statistically independent
(b) Consolidation is correlated to tidal fluctuation
(c) Tidal fluctuation is uncorrelated to consolidation
(d) Tidal fluctuation causes consolidation
(e) (a) and (c)
Explanation / Answer
Correlation coefficient is very small it shows a very weak relationship between the variables. So option (b) Consolidation is correlated to tidal fluctuation is correct.
