Ask a Physicist 8.1 The Scientific Method
Loading...
Uploaded by ASKaPHYSICIST on Apr 11, 2011
Video explaining the scientific method using examples from physics.
With this video I try to revert some common misconceptions about science, mainly by addressing what the words 'theory' and 'evidence' actually mean.
In the next episode I will follow up on Ockham's razor and the issue of conspiracy theories in physics.
As promised, here are some links for further watching:

Also, I would like to thank Mike Gallis for allowing me to use his animation. Please check out his website for other cool physics animations:

Also, if you would like to do further reading on the actual original Cavendish experiment and what it was actually meant to find, please have a look at:

You do look like Daniel Radcliffe, but the others?? wtf, especially Robert Pattinson??
Btw, the way you talk is so strenuous and it must be hard to maintain that accent.
