identification of the use of the new technology as a new experimental method

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

An in-depth illustration of a natural process that takes place in nature is termed as a scientific theory. After performing a scientific method the formation of a theory takes place. The generation of a good scientific theory takes place after proving, testing, and linking different kinds of ideas that are not just assumptions.  

A theory can also be considered as a well-illustrated hypothesis as a scientific theory is a deeply illustrated and a well-substantiated idea that overpowers the restricted illustration of a suggested hypothesis. A theory is an amalgamation of various ideas.  

The theory of relativity, which was postulated by Einstein in 1915 is a good illustration of a scientific theory that has been repeated several times. After the emergence in 1915, the theory was again examined in 1919 during the solar eclipse and was afterward examined and tested by different other scientists.
