Answer:

correct sequence:

make an observation

ask questions

construct a hypothesis

test the hypothesis

analyze the results and make conclusions

communicate the results

Explanation:

Scientific method is a set of steps made in order to perform a proper and valid scientific investigation.

Everything starts with an observation, finding something unusual or interesting that we want to test. After choosing our field of interest, we continue to ask a question; why is something the way it is and what is the reason for that?

Every question needs an answer so we propose a possible answer or a hypothesis. Of course, this doesn't have to be correct or final explanation, but it will be the answer which will we put to the test.

After constructing a hypothesis, we need to test it through researching or experimenting in which we will obtain some date.

Results of our experiment in the form of data must be analyzed and used to confirm or denied.

These results, whatever they may be, will help us to make a conclusion which we'll finally communicate, showing it to the other researchers.

How does the Foucault Pendulum show that the Earth rotates?
egoroff_w [7]

The Foucault Pendulum show that the Earth rotates because the pendulum would swing so slowly that it would appear to change direction as the Earth moved away.

<h3>How does the Foucault pendulum work?</h3>

The Foucault pendulum was able to demonstrate experimentally that the Earth revolves around itself with an angular velocity Ω, in a period of 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4 seconds.

Thus, Foucault knew that the longer the string attached to the weight, the slower the swing of his pendulum. He could attach the string above to an almost frictionless pin, and if he used a very large weight, the pendulum would swing so slowly that it would appear to change direction as the Earth moved away.
