What do you call the people who make theories?
The people who make theories are called theorists. They are individuals who develop hypotheses or principles to explain a particular phenomenon or set of phenomena.
What do you call the one who studies motion forces and energy to explain the way things work?
A physicist studies motion, forces, and energy to explain the way things work.
What flaw did Einstein make in his theory of relativity?
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread... I am not about to suggest that I know a flaw in any theory, let alone those of Einstein. They don't call him an 'Einstein' for nothin'. But scientists do point out that Einstein's equations apparently break down at what we would call today a singularity. It seems too that for this and other reasons, Quantum Theory may one day supplant Relativity. It was once thought that Relativity and Quantum Theory could not co-exist; there are now some possibilities that they can be reconciled. Whether or not the theories of Relativity are proven wrong, they were central to an amazing burst of insight on the part of many great scientists in the early decades of the 20th century.
What do you call a person who studies aerodynamics?
They are called aerodynamicists. There may be a red line under that word but it is a real word and is not misspelled. I checked dictionary.com.
What should you do if you are in an automobile accident with an initial speed of?
If you are in an automobile accident with an initial speed of, you should first check for injuries and call emergency services. It is important to exchange information with the other driver and gather evidence at the scene. Notify your insurance company and seek medical attention if needed.
Why do scientists call their explanations theories instead of calling them facts?
because it is their explanation not someone elses
What do you call the people who make theories?

How do scientists form theories and laws?
Theories are formulated using the scientific method of research where a hypothesis is created, tested and the results are examined. If the hypothesis can explain the data, make successful predictions and is not contradicted by reliable evidence we would call it a theory. For example, Newton's theory of gravity was formed to explain what the relationship between mass, distance and gravity is; after much testing and examination, it was found to hold true (at least for speeds not approaching that of light). Laws are mathematical relationships derived from theories. For example, Newton's law of gravity expresses Newton's theory of gravity in a formula using the required variables as Fg = GMm/d2.
Psychologists use theories primarily to?
Psychologists call ideas about how people thing, feel, or behave "theories" only if they are supported by good research. Generally, the purpose of psychological theories is to explain and to predict the future.
What do scientists call the bending of light?
Scientists call it refraction.
What are a set of a ideas that explains related obseravtions?
A theory is a set of ideas or principles that explain a set of related observations through logical reasoning and empirical evidence. Theories help to organize information, predict outcomes, and guide further research in a particular field of study.
Which scientists study horticulture?
We call these scientists horticulturists.
What do you call scientists that who study plants?
what do we call scientists who study plant
How do scientists answer creationist criticisms of the theory of evolution?
Mostly by explaining why these creationist criticisms are based in an incomplete understanding of the principles of knowledge and an insufficient knowledge of the relevant data. Creationists say that one of the main problems of Darwin's theory of evolution is that evolution cannot be proved. They say that the reason why it cannot be proved is because no one was there to observe the process of evolution. They call it a "theory" in the sense of an hypothesis. Scientists say that nothing is 'proved' in science, in the sense of mathematical proof. All theories are judged by the abundance and quality of the evidence in their favor. 'Being there' is not a requirement for theories of stellar fusion or of the internal workings of the atom. What matters is that the evidence can be observed in the present. And the word "theory", in science, does not carry the same meaning as used in the colloquial sense, of 'hypothesis' or 'guess'. A scientific theory is an explanation of some phenomenon or phenomena that has been extensively tested, and for which no contrary evidence exists.
Why do scientists call evolution a theory?
Because it cannot be proven or replicated.AnswerIn science, a hypothesis is a good idea, a possible explanation, which might be right and might be wrong. Hypotheses can be refuted by experimentation. If the expectation from the hypothesis is not met by the outcome of experiment, the hypothesis is refuted. The longer a hypothesis survives unrefuted the more confidence we have in it. Evidence can support a hypothesis. The more evidence one has in support of a hypothesis, the more grows our confidence in it. Within the philosophy of science of Karl Popper, a hypothesis cannot be proven, but one can have a mighty amount of confidence in one, proportional to the amount of evidence in support of it. Unrefuted and with backing evidence, a hypothesis is promoted to a theory! A theory is better than a hypothesis. Evolution has much evidence from comparative genetics, comparative morphology and the fossil record. Evolution was once a hypothesis. Darwin collected a large mass of evidence for On the Origin of Species and now we have evidence from Mendelian genetics and comparative genetics, which Darwin knew nothing of. We now have a greater fossil record than Darwin did. There is far more evidence these days (for what is now called Neodarwinism or the Modern Synthesis- the combination of genetics and Darwin's basic 1859 ideas) than there was in Darwin's time. Evolution now has so much evidence that it is best to call it a theory, rather than a hypothesis. Yes, theories are unproven, but in Popperian philosophy of science they cannot be proven. Theories survive refutation and have much evidence and explain a lot. Biology regards evolution as its baseline, its most important idea ever. It might only be a theory of which we can only be 99% confident, but it explains everything so well that most biologists should better call it a fact rather than a theory. Evolution is such a good theory that its pedantic differentiation from 'fact' is entirely unnecessary.
Why do you call newtons theories laws?
the laws of motion
What do scientists call a rock that strikes the Earth's surface?
They call it a meteorite. It's all right if we call it that too.
