two main approaches to learn about nature; Discovery Science and Hypothesis based science. With Discovery Science‚ scientist observe and describe objects‚ and with Hypothesis based Science‚ scientist make a hypothesis‚ make deductions and then test the predictions. In our everyday lives we use Hypothesis based science to solve many different problems. There is a criterion that is needed in order to have a hypothesis-based scientific study. To start you must have an observation and

Lately complaints have surfaced that an increased number of incoming calls are being dropped or misrouted. Yesterday‚ as you walked by one older employee‚ you noticed that he was fiddling with his hearing aid and not paying attention to the phone. A call came in and only because you were there and intervened was the call answered. This particular phone

Plant Growth; Varying Light Exposures Intro and Hypothesis: The problem that is going to be answered is: will plant seeds grow at differently if they are covered by different materials while exposing them to the same amount of light? Also‚ which material will allow the plants to grow the most‚ tin foil‚ saran wrap‚ paper or no covering? Before the lab took place‚ it was hypothesized that the less light a plant receives‚ the less it will grow and the more light it receives‚ the more it will grow

Two of these sources are known as the Internet and the Yellow Pages. Based upon the test performed‚ to determine if the Yellow Pages will become obsolete in the near future‚ the following information was found based on the hypothesis and test results that have been recorded in the passage

five steps of hypothesis testing and the 5% significance level (i.e. alpha = .05)‚ does showing the film change students’ attitudes towards the chronically mentally ill? What does it mean to set alpha at .05? Alpha means making a Type I error same as significance level. When the alpha is at .05 it means that the researcher doesn’t want to take a big risk therefore sets the alpha to .05. By doing this it will make it hard for hypothesis testing process to reject the null hypothesis unless it is

Question 1: State the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis ONLY i) One of the major Malaysia tire makers wishes to review its warranty for their rainmaker tire. The warranty is for 40‚000 kilometers. The tire company believes that the tire actually lasts more than 40‚000 kilometers. A sample 49 tires revealed that the mean number of kilometers is 45‚000 kilometers with a standard deviation of 15‚000 kilometers. What is the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis? ii) It is claimed that

Secondary research retrieved from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ’s (NOAA) National Weather Service website provided climatic data on a daily basis for each day of the periods under investigation.

The reason for this experiment was to figure out which solution would prevent the apples from browning the most and to determine if pH has an effect on the prevention of browning of the apples. My hypothesis stated that white grape juice would prevent the apples from browning the most. This hypothesis was refuted‚ lemon was actually the solution that prevented the browning of the apples the most. Before the apples were dipped in the solution‚ the average rating of the apples on a scale of 0 to 5
