<span>Specular reflection, or the act of seeing ones self in the mirror, is an everyday part of science that we commonly use without much thought about it. This is basically a reflection of light off a reflective surface, the image does not scattered but is printed on the surface for you to see.
Though quantum mechanics may explain how a magnet works scientist really have no true understanding of why charged particles create magnetic fields when they are moved around.
The microwave oven is another form of everyday thing that casually uses science. The science behind it is called electromagnetic energy. Basically it operates on a micro frequency that passes nearly harmlessly through plastics, glass, ceramics, etc to stimulate the atoms in liquids and meats to a reaction point that cooks them. Of course these micro waves also over stimulate metals thus why metal in the microwave is very bad.</span>
Practically any process you can think of in this modern world is made possible and available because of some form of scientific discovery. For example, I am able to take online classes, like I am doing right now, on the internet because of the scientific discoveries that have been made in order to create the laptops, the internet, and the online software used for the schooling. In addition to that has been previously stated, daily medicine or vitamin supplements that I take every day are a result of science and scientific discoveries that have been done to prove they help keep people healthy. Another thing we do every day thanks to science is washing our hands with soap every day and after we use the bathroom. We do this because of our understanding of germs that have been formed thanks to the process of the scientific method and scientific discoveries.
