Not really. Theory is always an indisputable fact in science. People who read and understand science seriously know that scientific theory actually has a different meaning than the theory used in English. Any theory needs three things to become a scientific theory.
1. That theory describes a phenomenon of how it appears. For this, a complete mathematical framework is developed which describes the phenomenon in detail.
2. Make predictions for the theory to be proven, which can be proved by experiments and observations.
3. That theory should be proved by these experiments and observations.
Now let's move on. Many people think that scientific law is actually a proven and solid law that has been proven, and that when the theory is proven, it becomes law.
In science, however, this does not happen. A scientific law is derived from a scientific theory. That is, it is a finite form or part of that theory.
Thermodynamic theory, for example, describes how heat is transferred or released from a system. Parts of this theory are called the Law of Thermodynamics.
Similarly, Newton's theory of gravity, that there is an unseen force called "gravity" that holds mass objects together. Create a law of gravitation based on this theory, which explains how and with what force two masses pull each other.
Similarly, information theory that explains how information can be stored and transmitted. Under this theory, "Shannon" states the rate at which information can be transmitted to a channel.
Similarly, the theory of evolution, which states that any living thing on earth undergoes a process of evolution and evolves into different species. Part of this theory is the Law of Natural Selection, which states that nature allows organisms to make changes that are compatible with the environment and that benefit the organism's survival.
So the next time someone tells you that any scientific theory is just a theory, you will have to give it a scientific explanation.
