Example: Example: QUESTIONQUESTION: why doesn’t my : why doesn’t my flashlight light?flashlight light?
HYPOTHESISHYPOTHESIS: : IfIf a flashlight doesn’t light a flashlight doesn’t light thenthen the batteries are exhausted, the batteries are exhausted, becausebecause the power for the flashlight comes from the power for the flashlight comes from the batteries. the batteries.

• In Science, a Hypothesis is an attempt at an explanation for the events that have been observed. A hypothesis has to be testable.
• If a lot of evidence (data) is collected through experiments to support the hypothesis, then scientists accept the hypothesis as a good explanation.
• An accepted hypothesis may, given even more testing and agreement, become an accepted theory. Usually takes many years.
THEORYS – Explain
![Page 6: The Scientific Method. Scientific Method Scientific Method A series of logical steps to follow, including experimentation, in order to solve problems.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649eb55503460f94bbd5c8/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Scientific Laws DESCRIBE observations, they DO NOT EXPLAIN them.
• Experiments are not usually associated with Laws.
Remember this very important idea: Isaac Newton knew what gravity did, but he could not explain why gravity did it. Even today the topic of “what is gravity” is an active topic for scientific discussion using Einstein’s general theory of relativity.
LAWS – Describe
![Page 7: The Scientific Method. Scientific Method Scientific Method A series of logical steps to follow, including experimentation, in order to solve problems.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649eb55503460f94bbd5c8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
You Can Never Turn A Theory Into A Law!!

• Scientific Method is Circular• Science is Social (scientists talk
to scientists)• A Law Describes• A Theory explains
• Can’t change a law into a
theory or vice versa.
