How would you distinguish a scientific theory from a scientific law-?
A scientific theory is accepted as factual even though it hasn't been proven. A scientific law has been proven as fact.
What is a theory called when it is proven to be correct?
A theory is never truly "proven" correct; data can be found time and time again that supports a hypothesis, which may then become a theory, but a theory doesn't really graduate to something else if it "seems" correct. Theories are always being modified as new advancements are made. "Law" (like the law of gravity) is a dated term that essentially equates to a theory in modern science.
What is a sentence using theory?
The theory that God created the Universe has never been proven.
Science question What is an idea that has never been proven wrong?
theory
Is it correct to say gravity is only a theory?
No. It's never correct to say that anything is "only" a theory or "just" a theory or"merely" a theory or "nothing but" a theory or an "unproven" theory.A theory can never be proven, but it can be dis-proven in two seconds. If a theoryhas been around for three hundred years and it hasn't been dis-proven yet, thenthat's a pretty good indication that you can trust the statement it makes.
A theory that has been proven true repeatedly over time and never disproven is called?
A Law

Resolved That man made by god.?
This ongoing debate between religion (God created man) and science (theory of evolution) about "creation" has never been resolved as God, himself, can neither be proven nor dis-proven. Also, the theory of evolution has also yet to be proven.
Does a theory have to be true all the time?
Not at all. That it hasn't been proven is what makes it a theory. Once proven, it becomes a law.
Why is the law of gravity a law not a theory?
It has been proven, as opposed to not being disproven. Theories have not been dis proven, but have not been proven, or are unable to be proven, but are otherwise acceptable as factual.
A theory is a hypothesis that has been proven true?
No. It can never be "proven" true. It's always open to question, and to any demonstration of its failure.But after time goes by, and no evidence has been presented to demonstrate that the hypothesis fails, and the hypothesis has made predictions that were confirmed by experiments designed to test them, then the hypothesis may be elevated to the status of a theory. But it's still waiting to be debunked.Interesting that a theory can be dis-proven in a day, but can't be proven in a thousand years. That's Science.
Which term describes an argument that has not yet been proven?
An argument that has not been proven is a theory or a claim.
