Scientific method is a process of investigation which help in observing different phenomena. Some say there are three steps in a scientific method, some consider them to be four and some 5, but all incorporate the same principles. These steps are included in a scientific method:
1. Observation
The first step is observation, in which the object in question is observed and the facts about it are listed.
2. Question
In this step questions about the object are listed down. One can start with what, when, where, who, which.
3. Hypothesis
Over here different possible answers are written down for the questions asked above, and a hypothesis is formed.
4. Experiment
Then the hypothesis is tested by conducting an experiment.
5. Accept Hypothesis/Reject Hypothesis
After the experiment is conducted the hypothesis is either accepted or rejected. If rejected the steps are again repeated from number 3.
