http://www.experiment-resources.com/research-bias.html The scientific method is a way to ask and answer scientific questions by making observations and doing experiments. The steps of the scientific method are to: Ask a Question Do Background Research Construct a Hypothesis Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion Communicate Your Results where as reproducibility is a part of it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reproducibility thanx for info ..but kindly elaborate my answer as well. why simple machines have 100% efficiency ? |

1.The scientific method is a process for creating models of the natural world that can be verified experimentally. The scientific method requires making observations, recording data, and analyzing data in a form that can be duplicated by other scientists. In addition, the scientific method uses inductive reasoning and deductive reasoning to try to produce useful and reliable models of nature and natural phenomena. Inductive reasoning is the examination of specific instances to develop a general hypothesis or theory, whereas deductive reasoning is the use of a theory to explain specific results.
where as reproducibility involve only experiments.the subject of a scientific experiment has to be observable and reproducible.e https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q...pJLWefrkALVs5Q Fallacies http://www.scientificpsychic.com/wor...fic-method.htm Truth is sought for itself [but] the truths, [he warns] are immersed in uncertainties [and the scientific authorities (such as Ptolemy, whom he greatly respected) are] not immune from error...[15] He held that the criticism of existing theories—which dominated this book—holds a special place in the growth of scientific knowledge: Therefore, the seeker after the truth is not one who studies the writings of the ancients and, following his natural disposition, puts his trust in them, but rather the one who suspects his faith in them and questions what he gathers from them, the one who submits to argument and demonstration, and not to the sayings of a human being whose nature is fraught with all kinds of imperfection and deficiency. Thus the duty of the man who investigates the writings of scientists, if learning the truth is his goal, is to make himself an enemy of all that he reads, and, applying his mind to the core and margins of its content, attack it from every side. He should also suspect himself as he performs his critical examination of it, so that he may avoid falling into either prejudice or leniency. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alhazen 5..s really science is turning humans into humans ? 14. c 15.24 hours

Sadia sis
simplest answer is due to "friction" efficiency is never 100%(in any type of machine) For your understanding i am mentioning the link of AVON PUBLIC SCHOOL United states please go through it.I hope you understand now http://www.avon.k12.ct.us/avonhigh/A...pleMachine.htm |

I have merely suggested my answers please cross check...chances are mine are right :P
Now at-least I know where I stand.. 8 wrong ...I haven't touched the scientists chapter.I was planning to let it go but seems I have to do it.Also I should pay more attention to words like NOT in the questions.Silly mistakes |

Its obvious tht efficiency of real machine is less then 100% but confusion is tht examiner didnot mentioned ideal or real, in that case i personally think that we should choose less then 100%
