Question
I'm preparing for my Critical Thinking test .
Applying the Scientific Method to an Experimental Study---
^^ I need to develop an experiment to test this claim
I must to generate the H0 hypothesis for my experiment to test my friend's claim
and generate the HA hypothesis for my experiment to test my friend's claim.
Notes:
A null hypothesis (H0) is a stated assumption that there is no difference in parameters (mean, variance, DPMO) for two or more populations. According to the null hypothesis, any observed difference in samples is due to chance or sampling error.
The alternate hypothesis (Ha) is a statement that the means, variance, etc. of the samples being tested are not equal. In software program which present a p value in lieu of F Test or T Test When the P value is less than or equal to your agreed upon decision point (typically 0.05) you accept the Ha as being true and reject the Null Ho. (Ho always assumes that they are equal)
Explanation / Answer
In this experiment, the null hypothesis should be like that sunlight does not affect the temperature of water.
The alternative hypothesis should be like sunlight affects the temperature of water.
