Scientific

 Scientific

1 : of, relating to, or exhibiting the methods or principles of science. 2 : conducted in the manner of science or according to results of investigation by science

 

Scientific knowledge is what we learn from the scientific process, which involves experimenting and collecting data. Scientific research is the collecting of data to investigate and explain a phenomenon.

 

Part of the scientific process concerns what you do after data has been collected.

 

Objectivity

Verifiability

Ethical Neutrality

Systematic Exploration

Reliability

Precision

Accuracy

Abstractnes

 

he goal of scientific research is to discover laws and postulate theories that can explain natural or social phenomena, or in other words, build scientific knowledge.

Mineralogy

Image
 Mineralogy is a subject of geology specializing in the scientific study of the chemistry, crystal structure, and physical (including optical) properties of minerals and mineralized artifacts.   Silicates, oxides, sulfates, sulfides, carbonates, native elements, and halides are all major mineral groups.   Becoming a mineralogist requires at a minimum a college degree and often postgraduate work. Since most mineralogists work in research or teaching a PhD is the commonest degree that is required. To prepare for this you need to take a college preparatory track in high school.   Georg Agricola a name for German scientist Georg Agricola.   A career in geology is well compensated, with a variety of different career paths and job titles. The main types of careers for geologists are in academia, working for the government (USGS), environmental consulting, oil and gas industry, or mining industry.

Magnetism

 Magnetism   is a class of physical phenomena that are mediated by magnetic fields. Electric currents and the magnetic moments of elementary particles give rise to a magnetic field, which acts on other currents and magnetic moments. Magnetism is one aspect of the combined phenomenon of electromagnetism.   There are six basic types of magnetization: (1) diamagnetism, (2) paramagnetism, (3) ferromagnetism, (4) antiferromagnetism, (5) ferrimagnetism, and (6) superparamagnetism. Diamagnetism arises from the orbiting electrons surrounding each atomic nucleus.   Magnets don't need gravity or air. Instead, their power comes from the electromagnetic field they generate all by themselves. One class of magnets, called electromagnets, does need electricity to work.   Magnets are surrounded by an invisible magnetic field that is made by the movement of electrons, the subatomic particles that circle the nucleus of an atom. The hyperactivity of these electrons gives magnets t...
