[[Scientist]]s try to discover the [[causal association|cause and effect relationships]] among physical phenomenon. For example, a [[bee]] sting may cause swelling in a victim. Or the moon's [[gravity]] affects the [[tides]].

==Quotes on Experiment==
[[Max Planck]]:
*''<blockquote><p>Hitherto '''the principle of causality''' was universally accepted as an indispensable postulate of scientific research, but now we are told by some physicists that it must be thrown overboard. The fact that such an extraordinary opinion should be expressed in responsible scientific quarters is widely taken to be significant of the all-round unreliability of human knowledge. This indeed is a very serious situation.<ref>{{cite book
