Scientific Method
The scientific method is the basis of scientific investigation. A scientist will pose a question and formulate a hypothesis as a potential explanation or answer to the question. The hypothesis will be tested through a series of experiments. The results of the experiments will either prove or disprove the hypothesis. This category should contain questions and answers regarding the scientific method.

What is the difference between variables and factors in scientific terminology?
A factor is a type of variable. Usually, "factor" is another word for the independent variable. But it can be any variable that is a part of or contributes or leads to another variable.
How is a scientific attitude very important in problem solving?
It Helps you to Learn Such as New things like your seatmate in School
A circle is the locus of a point which moves such that its distance from a fixed point is constant. .The fixed point is centre and fixed distance is radius of circle.
Elements of circle are centre, radius and circumference.
When you sum up what is learned in an experiment what is it called?
The outcome of an experiment is a "conclusion", the interpretation of the results compared with the expected results and the goal of the experiment.
What is a hypothetico-deductive model?
what is a hypothetico deductive model?
The Hypothetico-deductive model is a model of a method of scientific investigation and reasoning. It is very commonly used without anyone realizing they are using it. In a nutshell if is the way of discovering answers by:
Recognizing a hypothesis (theory), and then proposing the expected outcome of an experiment of this hypothesis. You then make observations of the experiment/phenomena and deduce whether your observations disprove or prove your hypothesis and proposed outcome.
This strays away from the belief that induction or deduction are the only methods of scientific inquiry, because it accepts the resulting answers as probable, or most likely to be true than not. This has been accepted as the best method of inquiry in some instances because sometimes the most probable answer is the best (accurate) answer we can expect to gain.

What is the purpose of using the process of elimination?
improves your chances of picking the correct answer.
To get rid of obviously incorrect answers
What is the Definition of displacement in scientific terms?
" The minimum distance between two points is known as Displacement."
"The vector distance between two points is known as Displacement."
Displacement is a vector quantity and is shown by d.
Displacment is the distance and direction of an object's change in possition from the starting point. ( i got this from my science text book but im only 13 so DONT JUDGE ME!!! thank you. ^.^)
Is it possible separating baking soda and vinegar using a filter paper?
high possibility yes. vinegar is a form of liquid and baking soda is a form of powder so, most likely filter paper can separate them
What is the common name of pisum sativum?
Pisum sativum is the garden pea. It was studied by Gregor Mendel who examined it for dominant and recessive traits. Mendel's work explained why Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution had genetic traits could be preserved.
How is mathematics used in evaluating data?
Scientists can evaluate the mathematical calculations of others.
What are the Common environmental problems that can solve by scientific method?
avoid doing unnecessary things that will bring problems to our environment
Is dependent variable the variable that can't change?
Not exactly sure what you mean by "can't change."
However, I if I do understand you correctly, the dependent variable CAN change. The dependent variable will change according to the independent variable's value and overall effect.
For example, in an experiment involving water's effect on plants, the dependent variable may be the height of the plant or the glucose produced. Based on the amount of the independent variable (represented on the x axis of a data graph), the dependent variable will increase or decrease. In this case, both dependent values (glucose and height) would probably increase.
Will a nail get rusted when coated with vaseline and put in water?
yup........
vaseline is a petroleum gel and it has low density than water. So the vaseline came up on the water when the temperature changes. after some days when the vasline complitly removed the nail become rest ok for more details:)9633977254
What problems cannot be solved by scientific method?
Oh ye of little faith, walk the path of scientific inquiry as I have and you will only get close. Because it still takes a leap of faith. The innocent children and lesser intellects who believe in God are wiser than you who does not.
The beginning of wisdom is belief and faith in God. Put aside your pedantic quest to measure something that is beyond measuring. Open your mind and heart to the TRUTH.
Answer:
The scientific method, hard work and human intellect will eventually lead us to any answer we want. No other approach has advanced human health and well being as much as science.
What 2 ways do they have predicted the beginning of the universe?
The big bang or God created it. Mostly the big bang is the scientific reason and God is the religious reason.
What is the hypothesis for Paintball Ballistics?
The ballistics are similar to that of a musket ball. Paintballs are not accurate at long ranges, and have a tendency to swerve or dive.
At speeds above approx. 350 feet per second they also tend to wobble (i.e. jump around in seemingly random directions while in flight).
The subject of bioethics deals with questions about what people ought to do with their knowledge of Biology.
What instrument measures luminous intensity or flux?
Luxmeter measures luminous intensity. The SI unit of luminous intensity is candela (cd).
What are the two types of data in scientific method?
Qualitative (things you can describe, like categories: gender or sport, variables like sm, m, and lg, or attitudes: agree/disagree, etc) and quantitative: things you can measure and report in numbers (like mass or volume)
A hypothesis is the correct explanation for some scientific question?
no a hypothesis is your guess of what the outcome is going to be in your experiment. For example. My experiment's question is to see what happens when I mix salt with water. My Hypothesis is the salt will float. Now the correct outcome is the salt sinked. I hope I helped you.
