Example figures: relative frequency distribution of current velocity

Explanations

Relative frequency [0.0,1.0] for which the magnitude of the current velocity is in the range of a given interval.

• left top: result for interval 0.0 m/s to 0.2 m/s.
• right top: result for interval 0.4 m/s to 0.6 m/s.
• left bottom: result for interval 0.8 m/s to 1.0 m/s.
• right bottom: result for interval 1.2 m/s to 1.4 m/s.

Examples

current velocity: 0.0 m/s to 0.2 m/s	current velocity: 0.4 m/s to 0.6 m/s
relative frequency with which the magnitude of the current velocity is in the range between 0.0 m/s and 0.2 m/s	relative frequency with which the magnitude of the current velocity is in the range between 0.4 m/s and 0.6 m/s

current velocity: 0.8 m/s to 1.0 m/s	current velocity: 1.2 m/s to 1.4 m/s
relative frequency with which the magnitude of the current velocity is in the range between 0.8 m/s and 1.0 m/s	relative frequency with which the magnitude of the current velocity is in the range between 1.2 m/s and 1.4 m/s
