The scientist's knowledge must be exact.There is no room for half right or right just half the time.He must be as nearly right as the conditions (46)B.What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times.If the conditions are different,any change the scientist observes in a demonstration must be (47)J by the change in the conditions.
This is one reason that investigations are important in science.Albert Einstein,who(48)E the theory of relativity,arrived at this theory through mathematics.The(49)H of his mathematics was later tested through investigation.Einstein's ideas are shown to be correct.A scientist uses many tools for measurements.Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.
