Question
Chapter 13, Problem 76QAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
When is a scientific theory considered to be successful, are all theories successful, will a theory that has been successful in the past necessarily be successful in the future should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
The description of an observed phenomenon is generally known as a scientific law. This description does not have any explanation. A scientific theory explains the phenomenon in detail.
