Uncovering the Mystery behind My Investigation: The Theory Review

AI Thread Summary
A Theory Review in an investigation is meant to engage readers with a narrative that connects to the research topic and leads into the practical investigation. The discussion highlights confusion about how to craft this narrative, suggesting that it may involve creating a fictional story that explains the motivation behind the experiment. There is a call for clarification on how to effectively link this story to the experimental process. The conversation also touches on the challenge of proposing a clear theory within the review. Overall, the Theory Review aims to bridge storytelling with scientific inquiry.

I have to finish my investigation and the outline has something called a Theory review. It defines it as: a story that generates interest in the reader for the field of your research and link to practical investigation to follow.:confused:

Now this maybe very simple but I'm not sure what kind of thing I'm meant to be writing here. This is the first investigation on which they have asked us to provide a Theory Review. I would ask my teachers but I'm currently off sick. Any help would be very much appreciated.
By reading the definition on my task sheet I would think to write an actual made up story about a reason behind wanting to find out the aim of my experiment? Then relate that story to what I did in the experiment.

PS. Sorry if this is in the wrong forum I didn't know where to post it :smile:

But the problem is that you haven't proposed a theory in what you said. Couldn't be more general. I believe I have defeated your theory right there :) Sorry.
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
