What is cartograms?
A cartogram is a map in which the information is shown in the geographical distribution of a map. The cartogram shows statistical information graphically
What is relative frequency of occurrence?
Meaning: Proportion of times that an event occurs in the long run when the conditions are stable, or the observed relative frequency of an event in a very large number of trials. This method uses the relative frequencies of past occurrences as probabilities. We determine how often something has happened in the past and use that fi8gure to predict the probability that it will happen again in the future. For example, suppose that an accounts receivable manager knows from past data that about 70 of 1000 accounts usually become uncollectible after 120 days. The manager would estimate the probability of bad debts as 70/1000 = .07 or 7%. A second characteristic of probabilities established by the relative frequency of occurrence method can be shown by tossing one of our fair coins 300 times. Here we can see that although the proportion of heads was far from 0.5 in the first 100 tosses, it seemed to stabilize and approach 0.5 as the number of tosses increased. In statistical language, we would say that the relative frequency becomes stable as the number of tosses becomes large (if we are tossing the coin under uniform conditions). Thus when we use the relative frequency approach to establish probabilities, our probability figure will gain accuracy as we increase the number of observations. Of course, this improved accuracy is not free; although more tosses of our coin will produce a more accurate probability of heads occurring, we must bear the time and the cost of additional observations. One difficulty with the relative frequency approach is that people often use it without evaluating a sufficient number of outcomes. If you heard someone say, “My aunt and uncle got the flu this year, and they are both over 65, so everyone in that age bracket will probably get the flu,” you would know that your friend did not base his assumptions on enough evidence. His observations were insufficient data for establishing a relative frequency of occurrence probability.
How do you work out a cumulative frequency question?
This will purely depend on the question, if you get a frequency chart, (containing only the frequency and how often this was brought, take, etc depending on the question,) add up the frequency one by one and you will have the cumulative frequency. You then (depending on the question) make a chart or a box-plot and follow the question (i.e what if the correlation shown? this would depended on the trend of the data.)

Purpose of cumulative frequency?
Cumulative Frequency - The purpose is to help understand the total frequency of everything UP TO a given value. By example: You could have a list of women heights and the frequency (or probability or fraction of the population) that you'll find women of each height. Or you could have a list of women heights and the frequency that you'll find women of that height OR SHORTER. This is "cumulative" in that it adds all the frequencies from zero up to that point. Often cumulative frequency is shown in a graphic rather than as a list of values as above. You might have the axis on the left (Y-axis) go from 0% to 100% and the horizontal axis on the bottom (X-axis) go from 0 cm to 300 cm. The line on the chart would show the percentage of women with heights at or under that X-value, and of course, it would be very close to 0% up to 100cm (assuming adult women), then increase to nearly 100% at 200cm, and be flat at 100% up to 300cm.

What are the guidelines used to determine the relative age of a rocks and events shown by a geologic cross-section?
The guidelines used to determine the relative ages of the rocks and events shown by a geologic cross-section is the Law of Superposition. It is the basic law of geochronology.
What is the effect in the change in wave frequency caused by the motion of the source of the wave?
Austrian physicist Christian Johann Doppler (1803-1853)discovered that a wave's frequency changes when the source and observer are in motion relative to one another. This is known as the Doppler effect.
