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 discussion of the experiment of the fall of a body through a viscous medium?

When a body falls through a viscous medium such as air or water, the resistance force increases as the speed of the body increases. This leads to a terminal velocity being reached when the upward force of resistance cancels out the downward force of gravity, resulting in a constant velocity. The experiment involves measuring this terminal velocity to study the effects of viscosity on the motion of the falling body.

Advantages of the step method of cost allocation?

Advantages:

  1. Considers some of the interdependence of service departments

Disadvantages:

  1. Resulting allocations are inaccurate estimates of opportunity costs.
  2. Allocation less than opportunity cost for first department
  3. Allocation more than opportunity cost for last department

Why is butterfiys endangered?

The most well known butterfly that is endangered in the Rainforest is called the Blue Morpho butterfly. These butterflies are easily spotted by their light blue, shiny wings and small brown dots.

Method statement for conducting a black building test?

Black building tests can be of 2 ways (most commonly)

1. Simulate a total power failure - means shutting down power completely in a facility

Normally used for testing high availability, performance, business continuity plans and recovery capabilities in a disaster-like scenario

2. Test the functionality of generators, simulating a total (external) power outage, replaced by generator-provided energy. This does not touch any equipment except generators, thus not causing any disruption to systems

Why do you not need to complete the steps of scientific methods in specific order?

If repeating an experiment with a specific outcome, the results may be different if you do not follow the exact steps. However, there is no need to follow a regimen of question and then experiment unless it makes sense to your line of reasoning.

What two research methods did Laud Humphreys utilize in his classic tearoom study?

Laud Humphreys produced a 1970 ethnographic survey of homosexual encounters in public places. Public restrooms were known euphemistically as tearooms. His methods would be considered unethical today. He observed the behavior of people without their knowledge or permission. He also followed them using their license plates and asked them to fill out a questionnaire, whose purpose was different than he told them: a social health survey. Finally, he published the results without notifying the participants, which violated their privacy.

The scientific method includes all what EXCEPT?

The scientific method does not include a testable theory. It does include an observation.

What step of scientific method immediately follows state the problems?

The following step would be to collect data and make observations, so that a hypothesis can be formed.

What are the step in scientific method?

  1. Make an observation
  2. Form a hypothesis to explain the observation
  3. Test the hypothesis
  4. Analyze the data
  5. Draw conclusions
(... and then, hopefully, share the results for independent validation and verification)
