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 ongoing process of discovery in science called?
The process of discovery in science is called the scientific method.
How can you write a hypothesis?
if dark colors absorb light more than light colors then the temperatures wiill be differentl
Why is the hypothesis so important to scientific method?
because it provides you the acrossing momentum of H20
Does the scientific method have to be done in a specific order?
The "scientific method", much like science itself, is always changing. There is no set process or order for the "scientific method". You will , however, usually see that different versions of the "scientific method" contain some of the same general steps and follow a general order. You will start out with a question, form a hypothesis, test the hypothesis, draw a conclusion, and report results.
The first step of a scientific method is to identify the what?
The problem or what you are trying to figure out (the question).
How do you use the rules of inference to construct formal proofs?
The point of a formal proof of validity is to get back to the conclusion of a syllogism in as few steps as possible. Let's say we have the syllogism:
1. P>Q (that's supposed to be a conditional...)
2.P
3.Q>R /.'.R
What you want to do is keep going with the syllogism. You can use steps 1, 2,and 3, but you cannot use the conclusion. How you use them is try to find which rules of inference start with any of your premises. For instance, step #1, P>Q and step #3, Q>R are the first two premises in the Hypothetical syllogism. So you could make step #4 P>R. Next to this step you will put what is called the 'justification', which would look something like this: 1,3 H.S. (which means: I used steps 1 and 2 and a hypothetical syllogism to make this step). Now we can use the step we just made in a Modus Ponens. This would use steps 4 and 2, and would look like this: R. Do you recognize that? That was our conclusion. We have now finished this formal proof of validity. Here's what the whole thing looks like:
1. P>Q
2.P
3.Q>R /.'. R
4.P>R 1,3 H.S.
5.R. 4,2 M.P.
(If you want to look like you really know what you're doing, you will want to put Q.E.D. at the end of a formal proof. That's what the real logicians do).
Hope this helps!!
(By the way, I'm 13.) :D
Can a scientific hypothesis be proven right or wrong for any kind of information?
you can only accept or reject it with a given degree of certainty
Definition of the 6 steps in scientific method?
1). Problem-- What is the question that you are trying to answer?
2). Hypothesis-- An educated guess/answer to the problem (often)
3). Research-- facts, inferences, observations done previously
4). Experiment-- List all of the materials
5). Procedure-- What steps are you going to follow during the experiment that are
detailed enough someone else could pick up the lab report and do it.
6). Conclusion-- Restate the hypothesis, restate the results, what you learned,
includes data tables and charts or graphs, and how this relates the
real world.
What is the scientific method's last step?
The scientific method's fifth step is to draw conclusions based on the results of your experiments.
Science apparatus with their name and picture?
All of them?
Here's the best I could find:

Why are publishing findings important in the scientific method?
Publishing findings in the scientific method is important because it allows other researchers to review, replicate, and build upon the work. This helps to validate the findings and ensure the credibility of the research. It also promotes transparency and sharing of knowledge within the scientific community.
What are the difference method in the scientific method?
1.) Observe and state the problem.
-real
-clear and specific
-attainable
-relevant and measurable
plastic )
and )===>products that accidentaly discovered.
rubber )
2.) Gather information about the problem.
-computer
-television
-radio
-books
-newspaper
-recall from your part experience
-(computer) fastest way of gathering information
-talk to people who are studying problems
-interview people
-peoples ideas and arguments
3.) Formulation of hyphotesis
-educated guess---->about what might be the answer of the problem
4.) Test the hyphotesis
5.)stating the problem
---> statement about the result of the experiment
6.) Communicating Results
---->ways of communating the results
-writing an article
-present the findings during forma and informal meeting
-give oral reports to classmates and teachers.
Give an example of an inference and an observation?
using information from observations to make reasonable early conclusions
What is better or mainland hypothesis island origin hypothesis?
I think its Mainland Origin Hypothesis because they have more evedinces...
When your program 'doesn't understand you' or 'doesn't do what you want it to do'. In the latter case, it is also called a bug.
There are three types of errors:
- compile errors. These are given by your compiler and prevents your program from running.
- linking errors. These are given by you linker or at runtime. Ends your program.
- runtime errors. These are given by the operating system.
Clicking on each of these error will give you a list of possible errors.
Removing errors is called debugging.
What are some hard 7th grade science questions?
Question:What is a difference between a meteoroid and a meteorite?
Answer:The difference between a meteoroid and a meteorite is that a meteoroid is a rock that is trapped by Earth's gravity and pulled down to Earth's atmosphere. As it falls it vaporizes. A meteoroid is also a rock that is trapped by Earth's gravity and pulled down to Earth's atmosphere but, does not vaporize completely and hits the ground.
explain why m/s/s=m/s2
