What happens if more than one hypothesis is put forward to explain the same observations?
For a hypothesis to be put forward as a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires that one can test it. A working hypothesis is a provisionally accepted hypothesis proposed for further research.
Why a new scientific hypothesis might be accepted or rejected?
Observational evidence
Is a scientific hypothesis an absolutely unbreakable law of physics?
No. A hypothesis is a proposed statement in science. When a hypothesis is constantly proven and accepted by the scientific community, it becomes known as a theory. Even a theory is not a LAW of physics. The only laws that exist in science are those that can be proven through math. While unbreakable laws of physics exist, if it cannot be mathematically proven, a scientific hypothesis is not an unbreakable law of physics.
Is a scientific hypothesis accepted if there is no way way to prove that the hypothesis is wrong?
No. Not being able to prove something is NOT the same as it being true.
Is a theory that has been proven and is widely accepted in the scientific community?
constant
Is a scientific hypothesis a accepted if there is no way to demonstrate that the hypothesis is wrong?
If you develop an experiment that truly demonstrates that the hypothesis is wrong*, then the hypothesis will lose its acceptance in the scientific community.* Such an experiment would have to be repeatable by other scientists AND accepted by interested scientists as a proof that the hypothesis is wrong.

It is accepted if the data support it.

How does a scientific hypothesis become an accepted theory?
when there s proof to back it up with evidence or an experiment to test the hypothesis
How are assumption and hypothesis formulated?
When observing data and facts that do not have, or conflict with scientific theory, one looks at, and assumes all of the possible reasons for this data, tests it again and again, once one is happy that they have found the most reasonable explanation, it becomes an hypothesis. After this the work is published into the scientific community, where it is scrutinized by other scientists in your field of research, in which they attempt to disprove your hypothesis. If none can disprove it then it eventually becomes accepted in the scientific community. This is when it becomes scientific theory.
Is theory a fact?
well, a theory is a general idea about something,so i do not think so.*A theory is a hypothesis well accepted by the scientific community. So I wouldn't think it was a fact considering a hypothesis is an educated guess.
Is a scientific hypothesis accepted if there is no way way to prove that the hypothesis is wrong?
No. Not being able to prove something is NOT the same as it being true.
What is the definition of accepted value?
a quantity used by general agreement of the scientific community is accepted value.
Is a theory that has been proven and is widely accepted in the scientific community?
constant
