Answer to Problem 62A

Even after repeating the experiment, if the result does not agree with the accepted theory, then a new hypothesis has to be proposed for the experiment to perform.

Explanation of Solution

A logical, methodical technique for solving a scientific problem is known as the scientific method.

Making observations, proposing and testing hypotheses, and creating theories are all steps in the scientific method.

A hypothesis is a theory put up to explain an observable. An experiment is a process used to put a theory to the test.

Though the results do not agree with the accepted theory, it does not mean the experiment performed is wrong. There should be a repetition of the experiment in the correct manner.

Even after repeating the experiment, if the result does not agree with the accepted theory, then a new hypothesis has to be proposed for the experiment to perform.
