Hypotheses can never be totally proven because only portions of populations are used to test them. There are many variables making it likely that results will not always be the same. However, tests with positive outcomes can strongly infer the likelihood that their hypotheses are correct.

Absolutely proving a hypothesis is impossible. However, well-designed scientific experiments can allow researchers to strongly infer that their hypothesis is correct.

A hypothesis is an educated guess, based on observation. Usually, a hypothesis can be supported or refuted through experimentation or more observation. A hypothesis can be disproven, but not proven to be true.

after you test it enough, it becomes a theory (a well tested hypothesis).

What is a hypothesis for which metal absorbs heat the most?
A hypothesis is a guess based on what you know. Which metal do YOU think will absorb heat the most? Write it as a statement and that will be your hypothesis: "I think _____ will absorb heat the most." It doesn't matter if your hypothesis is right or wrong, just that you have a guess.Of course, then you need to test your hypothesis and actually find out which metal does!
A scientist on television states that a hypothesis cannot be proven Access why this statement is correct?
When a hypothesis is proven, it is no longer a hypothesis; a proven hypothesis is a theory.

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.
