CHAPTER 1 SCIENCE IN OUR WORLD
Section 1 – Science and Scientists

SCIENCE STARTS WITH A QUESTION
Why is my reflection upside down in my spoon even though I’m holding the spoon right side up?
![Page 3: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
SCIENCE
The process of gathering knowledge about the natural world
This often starts by a question being askedWhy do I feel pain when I stub my
toe?What causes high and low tides?

SECTION 1-2Scientific Methods
![Page 8: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
SCIENTIFIC METHODS
The ways in which scientists answer questions and solve problems
Scientists often use the same steps
May use all of the steps or just some
![Page 9: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

ASK A QUESTION
Scientists ask a question after making observations
Observation – using senses to gather information Ex. The sky is blue, cotton feels soft
MIT Question:Only 70% of propeller energy is used to move
a boat, so how can boat propulsion systems be made more efficient?
![Page 11: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
FORM A HYPOTHESIS
Possible explanation or answer to a question A good hypothesis is testable
MIT Hypothesis:A propulsion system that mimics the way a
penguin swims will be more efficient than a propulsion system that uses propellors.
![Page 12: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
MAKE PREDICTIONS
Before a scientist tests a hypothesis, they often make predictions
What they think will happen during the test of the hypothesis
MIT Predictions:If 2 flippers are attached to the boat, then the
boat will be more efficient than a boat powered by propellers
![Page 13: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
TEST THE HYPOTHESIS
After you form a hypothesis, you must test it. Controlled experiment – compares the results
from a control group with the results from 1 or more experimental group.
The experimental groups are the same except for one factor, or Variable.
MIT TEST:They built Proteus, the penguin boat and took it
into open water to collect data. Only the flapping rate of the flippers varied between tests.
![Page 14: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
ANALYZE THE RESULTS
Data – pieces of information acquired through experimentation
Once you have your data, you must analyze them.
You must find out if your test supports your hypothesis or not.
MIT Analysis:The scientists compared Proteus’s efficiency
with the average efficiency of a propeller-driven boat. Proteus was 87% efficient.
![Page 15: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
DRAW CONCLUSIONS
At the end of an investigation, you must draw a conclusion.
Can Conclude: Support your hypothesis Does not support your hypothesis Need more information
MIT Conclusion:They did more trials and each time they found
that the penguin propulsion was more efficient, so they concluded that hypothesis was supported.
![Page 16: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
COMMUNICATE RESULTS
Communicate results accurately and honestly ensures the credibility of the scientist.
Communicate results: Report Website Journal Speech
MIT Results:They published their results in academic
papers, the internet, newspapers and science magazines.

SECTION 1-3Scientific Models
![Page 18: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
TYPES OF SCIENTIFIC MODELS
Model or Prototype – representation of an object or system
Major Types of Models: Physical – model airplanes, dolls, many drawings,
etc. Mathematical – weather map, computer models Conceptual – systems of ideas, comparing with
familiar things (big bang theory)
Models also used to represent very large or very small things (solar system and cells)
![Page 19: C HAPTER 1 S CIENCE IN OUR W ORLD Section 1 – Science and Scientists.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649db55503460f94aa61a3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
THEORY VS. SCIENTIFIC LAWS
Theory – unifying explanation for a broad range of hypotheses and observations that have been supported by testing.
Scientific Law – summary of many experimental results and observations. Laws tell you only what happens, not why it
happens.

Also refers to the tools and methods for creating these products and processes.
Cell phone with GPS GPS is a technology Tools used to make the phone is a technology Processes used to make the phone is a
technology

HOW DOES SCIENCE RELATE TO TECHNOLOGY
Science is knowledge of the natural world Engineering uses scientific knowledge to
develop technologies
So engineering is the process of creating technology
