Physics Chapter 1 Review

Laws describe, theories explain

One who incorporates string theory in his hypothesis about the structure of the 3D space is working in applied physics

Electromagnetism emerged as a distinct aspect pf physics less than 150 years ago

A theory is a tentative, testable explanation for a scientific question

A hypothesis is an explanation for many related observations or natural phenomena

All sciences require a belief system that assumes that the universe is orderly and predictable

Historical Science relies on empirical data from past processes to explain the evidence we see today

One of the ways that God redeems the physical world is through humans who exercise dominion over creation

A scientific law is a thoroughly proven scientific theory

Humans and animals were made in the image of God

Scientists can publish their work freely and bypass the peer review process w/o compromising their scientific integrity

A working hypothesis that makes accurate predictions may later fail in its prediction of a phenomenon

The world we see today has only slightly changed from the original creation

Modern physics expands physics into areas that cannot be studied using earlier techniques
