 \begin{document}
 \maketitle

 \noindent I. Write 15 different quantitative research titles. Follow the
 SMART process.

 \begin{enumerate}
 \item Analysis and implementation of the wave equation to
 model a reverberation in 3D space.
 \item Numerical simulation of end correction of cylindrical tube.
 \item Sound synthesis of acoustic guitar.
 \item Number of frogs and wasp in certain region in Zamboanga City (2021).
 \item Temperature fluctuations on the cities of the Philippines every year.
 \item Average time discharged of the SAMSUNG XYZ-123 during sleep mode.
 \item The distance every Zamboanga people have traverse every month.
 \item Mating season of humans.
 \item SCC student sleeping time.
 \item Sqaure meters of deforestation happened in Zamboanga.
 \item Number of student who have suferred abuses from parents causing
 long term effects on the behavior and psychological state of the student, each characterized by at what age it occured, how long it continued, and type of abuse.
 \item Watts consumed on different barangays in Zamboanga.
 \item Stamina of wind instrument players compared to athletics and non
 wind instrument players.
 \item Bubble acoustics, its formation and sound synthesis for use in 3D
 game engines.
 \item Percentage of the entire SCC STEM student's parents willing to inflict
 physical injuries to their children due to religious beliefs.
 \end{enumerate}

 \noindent II. Answer the following:
 \begin{enumerate}
 \item What is quantitative research?

 A research containing variables relating to quantity. Example:
 Speed, probability, horsepower and etc.

 \item What is the characteristics of quantitative research?

 First is that collects data of quantity. It may also requires large sample size
 which may help in detecting small anomalies never detected with smaller sample size.

 \item Discuss the strengths of quantitative research?

 One is (1) relatively easy to analyze without using abstract description with words, and
 instead relies on quantity. It can also be (2) consistent; conducting again the research
 with the same parameters as before at that same time, should give the same result, otherwise, time may have impact that observation.

 (I do admit 1, 2 was taken from this resource\footnote{\url{https://betterthesis.dk/research-methods/lesson-1different-approaches-to-research/strengths-and-limitations}} and added an explanation of my own.)

 \item Discuss the weaknesses of quantitative research?

 Though there are some limitation to these kind of research, one is that a phenomena
 may be hard to understand without the help of abstract words which exist in qualitative
 research; ethnicity, beliefs and habits are all cannot be acquired as quantity.

 \item Give an example of correlational and experimental research in relation 
 of the pandemic that we are struggling nowadays. 

 \begin{enumerate}[a.]
 \item Correlational:

 Upon the birth of the virus, followed by its rampage, killing millions of people,
 heavy strict quarantine were implemented. This immediately resulted into the slowing
 the rampage of the virus on the areas it was implemented along with contact tracing to
 supress any possible suspect who contracted this virus from going out and spreading
 even more.

 \item Experimental:

 In an experimental simulation by Grant Sanderson\cite{grant} of what would happen
 in an ideal epidemic with certain variable parameters change, the effective
 reproductive number ($R$) has considerably went down $\approx 1.7$ to $1.3$, when the
 probability of infection is set to $0.10$.
