A law explains what is observed.
something which you can directly see,in science. in statistics it would be something you can descibe or attach a number to. for example if you were to say there are 50people on wikianswers that would be an observation.
When you take a look at something so you can figure out what you need to do.
This would be considered an observation. It is a direct result of a specific experiment or test, where the metal is burned in a closed container and the contents remain unchanged. It does not represent a law or a theory, which are more general principles or explanations about the natural world.
When a trained scientist makes a careful observation of anything, that qualifies as a scientific observation. Scientific variables would be quantities of something,
If something is seen, it is in observation
When a trained scientist makes a careful observation of anything, that qualifies as a scientific observation. Scientific variables would be quantities of something, which could be temperature, velocity, size, color, pressure, force, or many other things, which are seen to vary in certain circumstances, from which observation we can deduce something about what is going on.
An observation is something noticed directly by your senses. There are three different types of observations. A qualitative observation is an observation about essential attributes of an object. For example, color, shape, texture, etc would be examples. A quantitative observation is an observation that can be described or measured in concrete numerical quantity. For example, weight, temperature, height, length, and mass would be examples. two types of observation: participant & non-participant
observation
You call it an OBSERVATION.
A simple way to describe this would be, an observation is what you see, and an interpretation is what you conclude about what you have seen. OR An observation is a fact, something your senses detect happening while an interpretation is what you make of it by what you have sensed with your senses.
observation
A quantitative observation is something that measures a quantity (number), such as the weight of length of an object. Quantitative observations have numbers, such as 3 pounds or 5 meters. The opposite is a qualitative observation, such as something is round or that it is blue. There are no numbers involved, the thing is either round or it's not.
