Cause and Effect01:53

Cause and Effect

11.9K
While variables are sometimes correlated because one does cause the other, it could also be that some other factor, a confounding variable, is actually causing the systematic movement in our variables of interest. For instance, as sales in ice cream increase, so does the overall rate of crime. Is it possible that indulging in your favorite flavor of ice cream could send you on a crime spree? Or, after committing crime do you think you might decide to treat yourself to a cone?

Photoelectric Effect02:26

Photoelectric Effect

38.5K
When light of a particular wavelength strikes a metal surface, electrons are emitted. This is called the photoelectric effect. The minimum frequency of light that can cause such emission of electrons is called the threshold frequency, which is specific to the metal. Light with a frequency lower than the threshold frequency, even if it is of high intensity, cannot initiate the emission of electrons. However, when the frequency is higher than the threshold value, the number of electrons ejected...

Doppler Effect - I00:56

Doppler Effect - I

5.9K
The Doppler effect and Doppler shift were named after the Austrian physicist and mathematician Christian Johann Doppler in 1842, who conducted experiments with both moving sources and moving observers. Consider an observer standing on a street corner, observing an ambulance with a siren sound passing by at a constant speed. The observer experiences two characteristic changes in the sound of the siren. Initially, the sound increases in loudness as the ambulance approaches and decreases in...

The Scientific Method03:50

The Scientific Method

64.1K
Chemistry is an empirical science. Scientists often pose questions to understand the chemistry in everyday life and seek answers to these questions. To achieve this, scientists follow a definitive series of steps that together make up the Scientific Method. This approach involves making observations, asking questions, building a hypothesis, conducting experiments, analyzing results, and forming a conclusion.

The Scientific Method

64.5K
Research is what makes the difference between facts and opinions. Facts are observable realities, and opinions are personal judgments, conclusions, or attitudes that may or may not be accurate. In the scientific community, facts can be established only using evidence collected through empirical research.

The Scientific Method

255.0K
The scientific method is a detailed, empirical problem-solving process used by biologists and other scientists. This iterative approach involves formulating a question based on observation, developing a testable potential explanation for the observation (called a hypothesis), making and testing predictions based on the hypothesis, and using the findings to create new hypotheses and predictions.
Generally, predictions are tested using carefully-designed experiments. Based on the outcome of these...

    Area of Science:

    • History of Science
    • Sociology of Science

    Background:

    • The recognition of scientific achievements is crucial for progress.
    • Historical accounts often fail to adequately credit all significant contributions.

    Observation:

    • Many scientific discoveries and innovations are not properly recognized.
    • This lack of recognition can lead to the "burial" of valuable work.

    Findings:

    • The history of science contains numerous examples of forgotten or unacknowledged merits.
    • Disputes and legal battles sometimes arise from the failure to recognize scientific contributions.

    Implications:

    • Ensuring proper attribution is vital for the integrity of scientific history.
    • A more robust system for recognizing scientific merit could foster greater innovation.
