What do scientist do when experiments show their hypothesis is incorrect?
If an experiment does not confirm his hypothesis, the scientist should report this honestly. Even if the results confirmed the hypothesis, further testing should be done by him or others to gather more data.
How do scientists usually state predictions?
A scientific prediction, or hypothesis, is always stated using the "if, then" method. IF this happens, THEN this will result.
In order to arrive at a solution to a problem a scientist usually does what?
A scientist typically begins by observing the problem and formulating a hypothesis based on existing knowledge. They then design and conduct experiments to test this hypothesis, collecting data and making observations. After analyzing the results, they draw conclusions that either support or refute the hypothesis, leading to further investigation or the development of new theories. This iterative process helps refine understanding and can lead to practical solutions.
After making observations and proposing a hypothesis a scientists next step is usually to?
...perform a scientific experiment designed to shed light on the hypothesis.
What is the difference between a theory an a hypothesis?
A hypothesis is the first postulation of an idea, usually based on an observation and the indication of a relationship. It usually includes a statement of the kind "x is proportional to the square of y".A theory is the final stage in the proof of an idea, where enough evidence has been collected to verify the exact relationship ("x is equal to 3y + 7") and there is no evidence refuting the postulation or contradicting the relationship; put another way, all data fits the relationship for all x and y.A theory is usually considered a result from a hypothesis, otherwise there is a fine distinction between them.A theory is just a hypothesis that has been tested by experiments and observations.A scientist will use observations to form a hypothesis. It is usually a question or statement which can be tested. A theory is a scientifically sound hypothesis which has had strong support through numerous experiments and data.

When a scientist finds that a hypothesis is wrong the scientist usually?
A hypothesis doesn't necessarily need to be correct. After a scientist has conducted an experiment and discovered that their hypothesis is incorrect, they still have gained the knowledge and the results from their experiment---as well as the correct answer, in some cases. They can use the results from the experiment that tested the original hypothesis to form a new experiment.
What is usually the result when a scientist gains new information about theory?
The scientific method is a body of techniques used to solve problems. When a scientist gains new information about a theory, the result is usually a new hypothesis.
How do scientists usually state predictions?
A scientific prediction, or hypothesis, is always stated using the "if, then" method. IF this happens, THEN this will result.
What is the first thing that a scientist do when trying to answer a question?
First they would usually create a hypothesis, or a guess of what the think why something would or has happened based on what they already know.
What is it when something develops?
When something develops, there are usually certain changes to that effect.
Can a hypothesis that has been unacceptable be of any value to scientist?
Yes. But usually a hypothesis (if, then, because statement) is changed overtime to establish a conclusion on the investigation. The point of the collection of the data is to show whether or not the hypothesis was supported, and if not needs to be corrected/modified. Certain parts may still be helpful/kept but in most cases it is changed
What is usually in an if-then format?
a hypothesis
After making observations and proposing a hypothesis a scientists next step is usually to?
...perform a scientific experiment designed to shed light on the hypothesis.
Does rejecting null hypothesis mens accepting alternate hypothesis?
Yes, usually.
Where does technology usually develop from?
Technology usually develops from innovation and creativity.
