6 6 Everyday Scientific Thinking Observation: The sound from a CD in a CD player skips. Hypothesis 1: The CD player is faulty. Experiment 1: When I replace the CD with another one, the sound from this second CD is OK. Hypothesis 2: The original CD has a defect. Experiment 2: When I play the original CD in another player, the sound still skips. Theory: My experimental results indicate the original CD has a defect.
