Question

q8. (s c.6.n.3.1)
a student says, \the law of gravity explains why objects fall.\ what is incorrect about this statement?
laws and theories are the same thing.
laws describe consistent relationships, while theories explain why they occur.
gravity does not always exist on earth..
laws change every time new evidence is discovered.

Explanation:

In science, laws describe what happens in nature (consistent relationships), like the law of gravity which describes the force between objects. Theories explain why these phenomena occur. So, the law of gravity doesn't explain why objects fall, but rather describes the gravitational - force relationship.

Answer:

Laws describe consistent relationships, while theories explain why they occur.
