Description: WebFor example, force is a useful concept for the explanation of acceleration, but force is not by itself a cause. More is needed. For example, a temporally transient process might be characterized by a definite change of force at a definite time. Such a process can be regarded as a cause.

Description: WebFor example, suppose a study finds that, over the years, the prices of burgers and fries have both increased. Does this mean that an increase in the price of burgers causes the an increase in the price of fries?

Description: WebTo make it clear, we have to distinguish causality from correlation. Let say we have two variables: A and B. A and B correlates when the value of A and B changes together; for example, when A's values increase, B's values decrease. However, we cannot say yet that A causes the change of B.
