Scientific method steps: observation to law

Observation

Sensory analysis about something - a thing, a fact, a phenomenon

Hypothesis

It is the explanation we give to the observed fact. Its usefulness is that it provides an interpretation of the facts available to us, an interpretation that must be put to the test by observations and subsequent experiments.

Experimentation

This phase of the scientific method consists in trying-experimenting to verify the validity of the hypotheses proposed or discarding them, partially or in its entirety.

Theory

Theories are made of those hypotheses most likely to be confirmed as true.

Law

It consists of a set of facts derived from observations and experiments properly assembled, classified and interpreted that are considered proven.
