What is the function of an experiment in relation to a hypothesis? Why is it that it is the null hypothesis that is subject to test? How does the null hypothesis serve as the basis to analyze experimental results? If we never find out if the null hypothesis is true or false, how can we use experimental results to accept a hypothesis? Setting aside the constraint on naive realism, explain how we can accommodate each of the remaining constraints and use empirical evidence as a rational basis to accept an hypothesis. |

Explanation / Answer

1.What is a function of an experiment in relation to the hypothesis?

Research/experiment is generally designed to answer a particular question/prove a statement. That question or that statement is considered as Hypothesis.

2.Why is it that it is the null hypothesis that is subject to test?

If a researcher proved a statement. Other researchers tries to argue that statement as wrong , they can prove that statement is wrong. Because there are lot of statistical techniques. By using that statistical techniques they can easily prove that statement as wrong eventhough that is wright.

To overcome this problem. Scientists proposes exact opposite statement to their hypothesis. That opposite statement is Null hypothesis. They will prove that null hypothesis is wrong. Then automatically we can say that original hypothesis is wright.

Example: Two roots are there. Those are right and left.

I said left side route is wrong route.Results audience can understand right side route is wright route.

Here left side route is null hypothesis. Right side route is Hypothesis/Alternative Hypothesis.

3.How does the null hypothesis serve as the basis to analyze experimental results?

If we reject the null hypothesis significantly That less than or equal to 5% . We can accept Hypothesis significantly that greater than or equal to 95%. In this way null hypothesis serve as the basis to analyze experimental results.

4.If we never find out if null hypothesis is true or false,How can we use experimental results to accept a hypothesis?

If we are failed in rejecting null hypothesis. We can use that experimental results by providing the details that where you are accepting Hypothesis/Alternative hypothesis. Suppose we are accepting the results at 85% write that percentage in brackets after the experimental results.

@ I supposed to answer first 4 subparts only. Please post last question as another question.Thank you@
