No. Not being able to prove something is NOT the same as it being true.
A scientific hypothesis is not accepted if there is no way to demonstrate the hypothesis wrong. In fact, if there is no way to demonstrate the hypothesis wrong, then it is unfalsifiable and unscientific. For example, if I hypothesize that an all-powerful being created the Universe, there is no way to demonstrate that this hypothesis is wrong. One might argue that none of the natural laws of science require the intervention of an all-powerful being, but then I would simply argue that is because the being designed things that way. Because I can come up with any unfalsifiable explanation for any objection not only is there no way to demonstrate that my hypothesis is wrong, there is also no scientific reason or evidence to believe it is right.
Yes Because.!!(:
the statement that an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by a force is an example of using of the following?
You make a new hypothesis and then start over from the research.
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.

A scientific theory is an extensively tested hypothesis that is accepted as the best answer we can come up with, since nobody has been able to prove it wrong yet.
A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is based on a body of evidence and has undergone rigorous testing and validation. It is a framework that helps us understand and predict natural phenomena. Scientific theories are supported by empirical data and are subject to revision in light of new evidence.

Although the spelling may be wrong in places, the sentence is true.
