Compare and contrast scientific theory and scientific law
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Similarities:

  • Both are based on observation.
  • Both are supported by empirical data
  • Both are tested repeatedly
  • Both are accepted by science
  • Both are based on natural phenomena

Differences:

  • Scientific law just describes a phenomenon. It does not give an explanation as to why the phenomenon occurs. It predicts an outcome of an event based on its initial condition.
  • Scientific theory gives an explanation as to why an event had occurred.
  • Laws are more resistant to change.
  • Theories can be refuted and accepted, and develop other theories as well

Take note:

A scientific theory cannot be "upgraded" into a law, and a scientific law cannot be changed into a theory.

A man standing on a bus remains still when the bus is at rest. When the bus moves forward and then
Hoochie [10]
This is an example of inertia - the body keeps it's energy because there is no force applied to it. When we try to stop it's motion, it resists. A man is not rigidly attached to the bus, so he keeps moving forward, at least until he hits the front window from inside. Answer is D.
