Scientific Method

He first learned about them when he was on a journey to Mecca. His best friend and long time girlfriend Phoebe was alaong for the ride, and she had fallen, breaking her face. They tried to figure out whys he had fallen when a leaf monkey came up form behind and started to throw coins at them. This is when the lightbulb was invented.

1. Use your experience to help you characterize the problem.

2. Form a conjecture (or hypothesis) that explains the observations and measurements of the subject.

3. Deduce a prediction from that explanation (reasoning including logical deduction[30] from the hypothesis).

4. Test - conduct experiments that test the predictions.

5. Publish and subject the above to the scrutiny of your scientific peers.

At a certain point it needs to be testable or it's just wrong

Because metal absorbs and conducts more heat then most other substances so it keeps it hot. Just like when you cook, you use metal pans because they conduct the most heat.

The hypothesis is the cornerstone of science, and hypotheses can be constructed areas, hypotheses may be reached inductively, and a set of competing hypotheses.

Because the scientific method has to adapt to what the experiment is

Does God exist? this question is subjective (opinion) and is down to someones individual thoughts

I would agree that science cannot answer this question at this time but that does not mean it is subjective. There are cases in which this is subjective (e.g. when God is defined as an idea as opposed to a non-mental entity) but there are also cases in which this is objective (e.g. when God is defined as Lord Zeus, a celestial entity physically extant and sitting upon the top of Mount Olympus.)

The reason the scientific method cannot answer this question is that in the absence of any conclusive empirical evidence (either via experience or experiment) science cannot say anything conclusive about a topic. Using the scientific method it is usually quite hard to say anything about 'hidden' entities which our senses and tools cannot interact with. The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

State a Question

Make a hypothesis

Make Observations

Gather Data

Make a Conclusion

And see uf your hypothsis was right or wrong...

Scientific models change to reflect ongoing research to explain discrepancies in current theory versus actual experimental results.

No one, with the possible exception of your mother-in-law, knows everything, so we continue trying to explain why the current models work most of the time but not all of the time.

For instance, Isaac Newton developed a few laws of things in motion that worked perfectly and without fail for apples falling on your head, bowling balls and freight trains in motion, but when a few people tried to "smash the atom", that is, to shoot a subatomic particle into the nucleus of an atom, it didn't work. Using Mr. Newton's laws and calculations, they missed every time.

So along came Albert Einstein and mentor max Planck and a few others and, voila! we have a new set of rules, a new model, which works perfectly for little tiny particles...and voila again, we hit the thing dead center.

I doubt that the rules of motion for little particles work for bowling balls, so we still need a tweeked theory that works for both - a new model once again.

A hypothesis is formed after observations are made and a question is formed.

Scientific Method:

1. Make an observation.

2. Ask a question.

3. Make a hypothesis.

4. Conduct an experiment.

5. Draw conclusions.

6. Share your results.

7. Do other experiments done by others agree?

8. Yes or no?

9. if no, do again.

Rubber and glass which become softer as they are heated are examples of crystalline solids

• observation
• hypothesis
• experiment
• analysis
• prediction
• organizing data
• repeating experiments
• communicating results
• drawing conclusion

The decolorizing agent in the acid fast stain is acid alcohol. The decolorizing agent in the gram stain is ethanol.

Find the variable with equal or opposite coefficients.If equal, subtract the equations. If opposite, add the equations.Solve the resulting one-variable equation.Substitute the known value into the other equation and solve for the remaining variable.

The scientific method is problem solving procedures. Ethics is moral beliefs that is good and bad some people believe in different things and cannot be proven because other science explanations actually have no evidence to prove it.

Try to come up with a different hypothesis that seems to be supported by the data.

Copy, clone, duplicate, facsimile, counterfeit, twin, etc etc

1. Every phenomenon has a cause.

2. Every cause can be known and understood.

3. All causes and phenomena act the same always and everywhere.

All experiments are based on hypothesis that has to be tested for truth. All scientific experiments therefore follow a logical methodology to arrive at a conclusion that must have a universal result that becomes universal accepted truth in Scientific experiments. It is necessary to follow the universal methodology by collection of the data for analysis to determine the elements or functional relationship in the experimental process. It is similar to any mathematical function that proceeds from one step to the next with the application of a universal formula that is written when solved.

state why an observation cannot be an inference

cleavage, if a natural property of the mineral (e.g. mica); or a fault, such as in a gemstone.

A chemical reaction occurs when the conditions for a chemical reaction exist.

Which is a really lame answer, so let's play with it. You want to make some water and carbon dioxide. You have some hexane, which is C6H14. If you set the hexane on fire, it will react with the oxygen in the air to produce carbon dioxide and water.

The melting points for non-metals range from the lowest for all elements to the highest. The melting point for Helium is effectively 0 K (-273.15 deg C) whereas that for Carbon is 3823 K (3550 deg C).

An experiment should be repeated for two reasons. The first is that you want to be sure that your results stay the same. If they are different the second time then it shows that the result are not constant, and therefore cannot be used to prove a point. The second is that other should be able to repeat it to make sure that your did not make up your results.
