Scientific Method

Prediction of Observation. An Hypothesis is testable when it predicts what observations will occur under some circumstance that can be experimentally created.


Either it does so accurately, or it does not.

Questions that are not testable or repeatable.

work=force(distance)

w=F(d)

w=400(3)

w=1,200 joules of work

Step One: Ask a questions or state a problem

Example: What is the best soil for growing plants?

Step Two: Gather Background Information

Example: Getting information on nutrient content of different soil types. You can do research at a library on a computer or from a knowledgeable and reliable person.

Step Three: Form a Hypothesis

Your hypothesis should always be an if/then statement

Example: If I give the plant potting soil then it will grow taller than all the other plants.

Step Four: Experimenting (the fun part)

Example: Getting the same type of seed, the same type of pots, and the same amount of soil (different types of soil though) watering each plant the same amount with the same amount of sunlight then observing which plants grow the tallest.

Step Five: Gather Data

Example: Make a graph showing that the plant in pot a grew 22 CM, the plant in pot b grew 15 CM and so on.

Yes, to do otherwise you are entering the realm of psuedoscience. People would intentionally or unintentionally re-order their findings in order to prove their pre-conceived theories and ideas. They have already arrived at a conclusion (which is the FINAL step), and will come up with theories and experiments to reinforce that conclusion.

"Christian Science" is well known for doing this.

Its why the thing you are doing is about

You form a hypothesis :D

Advantages of using scientific methods: You can test in many different ways, and the more times you test, the more accurate your results will be.

Disadvantages of using scientific methods: You can come up with different results which can disprove your hypothesis, and this leads to inconsistent conclusions.

To propose a Theory and to make a Theory into a Law

Scientific method - organized step by step suplimatic orderly

1. Identifying the Problem
2. Gather information about the problem
3. Formulating Hypothesis
4. Test the hypothesis thru experiment
2 set-ups
• experimental
• controlled
5. Forming a conclusion/ Generalization
6. Verify the conclusion


if my answer works kindly say thank you(lol)
you can contact me on facebook

p.s indicate where you got my e-add cause its a joy for me to help.

Error

the factor in an experiment that is missing the variable but is the same as other facotors in every other way.

No.

A hypothesis cannot be call a theory because,it has not supported a prediction even in the face of several experiment.

So they can get a more accurate answer

• Ask a Question
• Do Background Research
• Construct a Hypothesis
• Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment
• Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion
• Communicate Your Results

An observation are used to form hypothesis by forming a question of which the observation and then answering it accurately.

A hypothesis for a science fair project is a scientific guess for what will happen after you perform your experiment and why. an example is if you are testing how long you buzz on a certain type of Monster, you would say, "I think this type of Monster energy drink will last the longest because it has the highest amount of ginseng," or something.

The "analyze and draw conclusions" step of the scientific method is based on gathered data.

you first start off with a hypothesis and after you end up with a conclusion
