WHAT DO SCIENTISTS DO?
![Page 3: Science, Matter, and Energy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042718/56812ab0550346895d8e74c5/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Science is a search for order in nature
Why?
How? (What do they use to gain knowledge?)
• Scientists are curious and skeptical, and demand lots of evidence.– Need skepticism, reproducibility, and peer review.
![Page 4: Science, Matter, and Energy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042718/56812ab0550346895d8e74c5/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Scientists use observations, experiments, and models to answer questions about how nature works

The Scientific Process
![Page 6: Science, Matter, and Energy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042718/56812ab0550346895d8e74c5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Scientific theories and laws are the most important and certain results of science
• What is a scientific…– Law?– Theory? – Hypothesis?
• The results of science can be …
![Page 8: Science, Matter, and Energy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042718/56812ab0550346895d8e74c5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Questions to ask to determine if scientific findings are reliable or unreliable
• Was the experiment well designed? Did it involve a control group
• Have other scientists reproduced the results?
• Does the proposed hypothesis explain the data? Have scientists made and verified projections based on the hypothesis?
• Are there no other, more reasonable explanations of the data?
![Page 9: Science, Matter, and Energy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042718/56812ab0550346895d8e74c5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Questions to ask to determine if scientific findings are reliable or unreliable
• Are the investigators unbiased in their interpretations of the results? Were all the investigators’ funding sources unbiased?
• Have the data and conclusions been subjected to peer review?
• Are the conclusions of the research widely accepted by other experts in this field?
![Page 10: Science, Matter, and Energy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042718/56812ab0550346895d8e74c5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Questions to ask to determine if scientific findings are reliable or unreliable
• If “yes” is the answer to each of these questions, then the results can be called reliable science. Otherwise, the results may represent tentative science that needs further testing and evaluation, or you can classify them as unreliable science.

Energy changes are governed by two scientific laws
• The first law of thermodynamics, or the law of conservation of energy, states that when energy is converted from one form to another in a physical or chemical change, no energy is created or destroyed.
• The second law of thermodynamics states that when energy is changed from one form to another, energy quality is depleted.
