Imagine you have been asked to create an experimental design to test the hypothesis that talking on a cell phone impairs driving

skills. Explain why a control condition would be important to include in testing this hypothesis. How should subjects be assigned to conditions? How can the researchers design the experiment so that the only difference between both conditions is the use of a cell phone?

To start the control would be import to see how drivers would act with full focus on the road. The subjects should (in order for the only difference to be the phone) is to use the same vehicle same road same weather condition, just obviously one has the phone the other does not. I hope this helps

Explanation:

To see if using a cell phone actually impairs driving skills, it is necessary to conduct an experiment to test this hypothesis. We can define an experiment as a controlled test to affirm a certain behavior (hypothesis). This is an important procedure to discover the causes and effects that will be important to complete an experiment, so when performing this test it is necessary for a researcher to manipulate a variable in order to find out what its effects are on another variable, so that conclusions about cause and effect.

Every experiment must have an independent variable and a dependent variable. The independent variable is configured as the experimental situation manipulated by the researcher, and the dependent variable is defined as the behavior that the researcher tries to predict. In this question, then, the independent variable is the use of the cell phone, and the dependent variable is the number of collisions.

Therefore, to be valid, an experiment must have an experimental condition and a control condition.

How do you find the change in potential energy
ratelena [41]

P.E = mgh

This is the formula for potential energy.

This is where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is height.

All you have to do is multiply all these numbers together.
