Question:
Since 1984, all automobiles have been manufactured with a middle tail-light. You have been hired to answer the following question: Is the middle tail-light effective in reducing the number of rear-end collisions? You have available to you any information you could possibly want about all rear-end collisions involving cars built before 1984. How would you conduct an experiment to answer the question? In your answer, include things like (a) the precise meaning of the unknown parameter you are testing; (b) H0 and H1; (c) a detailed explanation of what sample data you would collect to draw a conclusion; and (d) any assumptions you would make, particularly about the characteristics of cars built before 1984 versus those built since 1984.

I have recently received the degree of PhD. In Physics by the Universidade Federal do Maranhão after spending a term in Durham University, as I have been awarded a scholarship from a Brazilian mobility program. During my PhD. I have performed research mainly in Theoretical Physics and published works in distinguished Journals (check my ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4324-1184).
During my BSc. I have been awarded a scholarship to study for a year in the University of Evansville, where I have worked in detection-analysis of photon correlations in the the Photonics Laboratory. There I was a tutor in Electromagnetism, Classical Mechanics and Calculus for most of that year (2012).
I am very dedicated, honest and a fast learner, but most of all, I value a job well done.
