A reliable test is one that has the same results over time. This means you can trust the test and its outcome.

What is reproducible experiments?

Essentially, it means that an experiment can be repeated multiple times and you would still draw the same conclusions from the results you obtain. There are various statistical tests you can perform to see if your results are statistically reproducible or not - there is always some small variation, but what's important is that the same conclusions can be drawn.


What does investegation mean in science?

You have to state whether or not your hypothesis was supported by the experiment and then explain why or why not. e.g. The hypothesis, if the concentration of the hydrochloric acid is increased, the change in weight of the calcium carbonate will increase, was supported by the experiment that was conducted. There was a notable difference in the change in weight of the calcium carbonate between the different concentrations. The data was reliable as the data was consistent over the three trials and it supported the hypothesis, which was backed by scientific explanation. Acids with a higher concentration contain more acidic particles. Because of this, the reaction was more likely to happen and happened over a larger amount of the surface area of the calcium carbonate. There were no anomalies in the data. As stated previously, the data was consistent over the three trials. Make sure you explain how reliable the data was and why or why not


Why is it important for scientist to use the scientific method?

The Scientific Method is a method followed to make experiment results repeatable, as multiple people can do the same experiment and get the same answer, making the experiment reliable. It is a base for proving the results are correct. If it was not used, people would go back to less organized science, like Aristotalian science (he claimed the sun revolved around the earth, and was believed over other scientists with the correct view because he was popular, before the scientific method's creation).


What is a repeatable procedure?

An experiment which can be repeated and will yield the same results. Ex. If x+y=z in the experiement if you try the experiment again you should get the same result "z".


How do you write a scientific conclusion when your results are wrong?

you can't......you have to start all over.

What does consistent mean and does reliable mean?

Consistent means offering the same standard of service over and over again.


Why do scientist do experiments over?

Scientists repeat experiments to test whether results are consistent and reliable.


What is The extent to which a test yields consistent results?

The extent to which a test yields consistent results is known as reliability. It refers to the stability and consistency of the measurement over time. Reliable tests produce similar results when administered multiple times under the same conditions.


What is to be consistent?

Being consistent means always acting or behaving in the same way, or following a set of rules or principles without deviation. It requires maintaining a stable and reliable pattern of behavior or performance over time.


What is the difference between a valid test and a reliable test?

Reliable indicates that each time the experiment is conducted, the same results are obtained (accuracy). Valid indicates the experiment (or test) has controlled variables and used an appropriate method/model.


What does the phrase a consistent method of measurement mean?

"A consistent method of measurement" means using the same approach or criteria each time when evaluating or quantifying something. This helps ensure that data is reliable and can be compared accurately over time or across different situations.


What is the meanig of the word consistent?

Consistent means to keep going at a regular speed. It can also mean just simply being the same or doing the same thing. Ex. She stayed at a consistent speed of 80 kph. OR He consistently finished his homework and got good grades at school.


What does pending results means?

It means that the results you are aquiring are still being looked over or have yet to be graded.


What is a reliable selection process?

A reliable selection process is one that consistently leads to the same outcomes when applied to a group of candidates over time. It should produce consistent results and minimize errors or biases in the selection of candidates for a particular role. This can be achieved through standardized assessments, multiple interview stages, and validated selection criteria.

What does the term consistent mean?

Consistent means to be near to the target. If ur goal is to achieve a score of 5. Over a period of time, if u stay close to this score. U are consistent in ur performance.


What is difference between shot blasting and shot peening?

These are unlike processes applied to achieve different results. The only similarities are basic: each is a process of propelling media at a high velocity to strike a surface. Shot peening however requires control over a consistent size and shape of media, a consistent velocity of media, a consistent volume of media striking each surface area, and for a consistent length of time. Careful controls yield consistent and repeatable results that are not measurable visually. Blast cleaning is ordinarily less controlled, therefore less expensive, and results can usually be assessed visually.
