A theory and a law serve different purposes in science. A theory explains why something happens based on evidence and research, while a law describes a phenomenon or pattern observed in nature without necessarily explaining why it occurs. Therefore, a theory cannot "become" a law because they are fundamentally different in terms of their function and scope.
A theory cannot become a law because they are different aspects of scientific understanding. Theories are comprehensive explanations that incorporate observations and evidence, while laws are concise statements that describe a specific relationship or pattern in nature. Laws do not explain why phenomena occur, which is the role of theories.
A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world based on a body of evidence and observations. Laws, on the other hand, are descriptions of natural phenomena that have been observed to occur consistently. A theory explains why something happens, while a law simply describes what happens. Thus, a theory cannot become a law because they serve different purposes within the scientific framework.
You're playing with words ... a "law" is just a thumb nail description of a theory.
Conservation of energy is a law in physics, specifically the first law of thermodynamics. It states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed from one form to another.
In science, a theory and a law serve different purposes. A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is supported by evidence and can be repeatedly tested and verified, while a scientific law is a statement that describes a pattern in nature. The distinction between the two is based on the level of understanding and evidence supporting them, with theories typically being more complex and comprehensive than laws.
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.
A theory, when proven over time, can become a law. Example: Law of Gravity and Theory of Evolution

Answer this question… What can a hypothesis become if it is supported by repeated experimentation?
Because they differ
A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world based on a body of evidence and observations. Laws, on the other hand, are descriptions of natural phenomena that have been observed to occur consistently. A theory explains why something happens, while a law simply describes what happens. Thus, a theory cannot become a law because they serve different purposes within the scientific framework.
When they create theory. Then they search for the different proof for proving it. If they succeed then After confirmation the theory become law.
A scientific Theory is when it tries to explain something in an experiment that happens repededly in nature or the natural world. A scientific law is when there is repeated behavior in an experiment but cannot be explained.
A law is the description of an observed phenomenon. It doesn't explain why the phenomenon exists or what causes it. It doesn't change. A theory is the explanation but those can and do change.
Approved by the President.
Scientific law is proven (for the most part) and scientific theory is not proven yet."However scientific law is a law that cannot be broken.
