    Hertz wireless experiments (1887): Heinrich Hertz demonstrates free space electromagnetic waves, predicted by Maxwell's equations, with a simple dipole antenna and spark gap oscillator. Thomson's experiments with cathode rays (1897): J. J. Thomson's cathode ray tube experiments (discovers the electron and its negative charge).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experiment

    Experiments might be categorized according to a number of dimensions, depending upon professional norms and standards in different fields of study. In some disciplines (e.g., psychology or political science), a 'true experiment' is a method of social research in which there are two kinds of variables.

    For example, if the fertilizer was spread by a tractor but no tractor was used on the unfertilized treatment, then the effect of the tractor needs to be controlled. A scientific control is an experiment or observation designed to minimize the effects of variables other than the independent variable (i.e. confounding variables). [1]

  6. Scientific demonstration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_demonstration

    Most scientific demonstrations are simple laboratory demonstrations intended to demonstrate physical principles, often in a surprising or entertaining way. They are carried out in schools and universities, and sometimes in public demonstrations in popular science lectures and TV programs aimed at the public.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_of_experiments

    This example of design experiments is attributed to Harold Hotelling, building on examples from Frank Yates. [21] [22] [14] The experiments designed in this example involve combinatorial designs. [23] Weights of eight objects are measured using a pan balance and set of standard weights. Each weighing measures the weight difference between ...
