In science the things called "laws" are invariably just rules-of-thumb that hold true only under ideal conditions.
For instance : the gas laws - they only hold for low pressure and high temps
... and if you don;t believe that, then what are vapor tables for?
A "theory" is any hypothesis that's been verified so often that "everybody" believes it.
Note that non-scientists can not distinguish between theory, hypothesis, and crack-pot notion.
A theory, when proven over time, can become a law. Example: Law of Gravity and Theory of Evolution
A law cannot become a theory, as laws are higher in scientific hierarchy than theories. Theories may become laws when the evidence for their factuality proves that the theory meets all established requirements set forth by the theory. If at any point in the scientific method a theory is disproven for the criteria that it sets forth, it can never be considered a Law. The hierarchy is thusly: Hypothesis < Theory < Law.
The difference between theory and natural law is that a theory is a framework, while a natural law is a single rule, usually expressed in mathematics. They are not two different stages of acceptance among scientists (as it is sometimes claimed in error); they are two completely different things; a theory does not evolve into a law with when sufficient evidence for a theory has been gathered for example. For example consider: The Theory of Special Relativity <-- Theory Speed of light is constant <-- Law Theory of Electromagnetism <-- Theory Divergence of the Magnetic field is zero <-- Law Quantum Field Theory <-- Theory Conservation of Energy <-- Law
A theory is just an idea of how things work a law is a theory already proven that applies anywhere just depending of the variables used in the law
A natural law is an empirical observation held to be true. A theory explains why the law holds true.
A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of a natural phenomenon that is supported by evidence and can be used to make predictions. It is a broad explanation that may encompass multiple related hypotheses. In contrast, a scientific law is a statement that describes a consistently observed behavior in nature but does not explain the underlying reasons for that behavior. Laws are usually more specific and narrow in scope compared to theories.
Civil Law
command of sovereign sanctioned by punishments is law by imperative theory and law as legal science of norms is by pure theory of law.
The theory come first because without a theory there is nothing to make a law.
A theory, when proven over time, can become a law. Example: Law of Gravity and Theory of Evolution
The charateristics that differentiate families from other social groups are law, education, lifestyle.
Pure Theory of Law was created in 1934.
A law is known to be true. There is no dispute about it. A theory is disputable. Gravity is a law, the Big Bang is a theory.
A law is a description of a naturally occurring phenomenon, whereas a theory attempts to explain a law.
A law cannot become a theory, as laws are higher in scientific hierarchy than theories. Theories may become laws when the evidence for their factuality proves that the theory meets all established requirements set forth by the theory. If at any point in the scientific method a theory is disproven for the criteria that it sets forth, it can never be considered a Law. The hierarchy is thusly: Hypothesis < Theory < Law.
It was a law not the theory because this principle has also proved by him.
A theory explains how something works - a "law" is just a thumb nail description of a theory.
