What is a mistake called in the scientific method?
Error
What are the 8 steps of the scientific methods?
There are only four steps. Those steps are:1. scientific-method: Consider the problem and try to make sense of it. Look for previous explanations. If this is a new problem to you, then move to step 2.2. scientific-method: When nothing else is yet known, try to state an explanation, to someone else, or to your notebook.3. scientific-method: If you assume 2 is true, what consequences follow?4. scientific-method: Look for the opposite of each consequence in order to disprove 2. It is a logical error to seek 3directly as proof of 2. This error is called affirming-the-consequent.scientific-methodRead more: scientific-method
What is the purpose of using the scientific method?
to make careful observations (got this off a study guide at school haha)
Can all of our discoveries and understandings about the natural world been the result of applying the scientific method?
Absolutely, the scientific method is the very backbone of experimenting and only through experimenting can scientists make discoveries. The scientific method is necessary to ensure validity, and reliability, without it we can't trust the results to be accurate or reliable.
What is the source of error mean in sceience?
In a scientific experiment, a source of error is something that could have caused you to obtain an incorrect result. Example: You are performing an experiment to see how much 30 liters of water weigh. If you accidently pour 32 liters of water when you meant to pour 30, that would be a source of error, because it would give you the incorrect result.
