COMPARISON OF F. Y. B. SC. PHYSICS & ELECTRONICS STUDENT STRENGTH OF K.A.A.N.M.S. ARTS, COMMERCE & SCIENCE COLLEGE, SATANA T. P. Khairnar Assistant Professor (Mathematics), K.A.A.N.M.S. Arts, Commerce & Science College, Satana. tpkhairnar@gmail.com
This paper Compares F.Y.B.Sc. Physics & Electronics student strength of K.A.A.N.M.S. Arts, Commerce & Science College, Satana. Data of F.Y.B.Sc. Physics & Electronics student strength were collected from department of Physics & Electronics of last six years. The data were analyzed using đ?œ’2 (Chi-square) test. Generally,students offering Physics also offer Electronics but the result is surprisingly different. Keywords: -Observed frequency, Expected frequency,đ?œ’2 (Chi-square) test, Level of significance, Degrees of freedom. Scholarly Research Journal's is licensed Based on a work at www.srjis.com
Introduction: - Students offer various subjects so they have to deal with idle time. If optional subjects reduced the idle time will be reduced. So I have taken up this problem “Can Electronics is made compulsory for students offering Physics?� Thus we test the null hypothesis “Students who offer Physics also offer Electronics.�If Electronics made compulsory then it will reduce idle time for students which will be used for extra activities. Collection of data:- Data were collected, of last six years regarding students who chosen Physics & Electronics, from department of Physics & Electronics of K.A.A.N.M.S. Arts, Commerce & Science College, Satana which was as follows:Academic Year

Then χ2 is calculated using following formula đ?›˜đ?&#x;? =

∴ đ?›˜đ?&#x;? = đ?&#x;?đ?&#x;’. đ?&#x;‘đ?&#x;–đ?&#x;‘đ?&#x;“ And table value of đ?›˜đ?&#x;? at 1% level of significance & 5 degrees of freedom = 15.086 Conclusion:As 24.3835 > 15.086, reject the null hypothesis at 1% level of significance that is students offered Physics may not offer Electronics, generally which is not the case.

Academic Year
After observing above multiple bar diagram, there is a change in trend from the academic year 2012-13 to 2013-14. In 2012-13, 59.25% students offered Electronics while in 2013-14, 87 % students offered Electronics. After 4 to 5 years if the same study is repeated then result might be different. Reference:N.
