The mean and variance of $7$ observations are $8$ and $16$ respectively. If the first five observations are $2, 4, 10, 12, 14$,then the absolute difference of the remaining two observations is

The mean and standard deviation of a set of $n_{1}$ observations are $\bar{x}_{1}$ and $s_{1},$ respectively,while the mean and standard deviation of another set of $n_{2}$ observations are $\bar{x}_{2}$ and $s_{2},$ respectively.
