What is a bad hypothesis or a wrong hypothesis?

there is never really a wrong hypothesis because its basically just a guess....


Is an unsupported hypothesis a bad hypothesis?

No because a hypothesis s an educated guess..It doesn't need supporting details only you final conclusion needs evidence


Is a hypothesis valuable when it has not been proven?

a hypothesis is simply a guess 2nd answer: A true hypothesis is not simply a guess - it is a well-researched and tested suggestion of a possible truth. An unproven hypothesis can be really bad. The hypothesis of global warming is an example of an unproven hypothesis because nearly no scientists are following the correct procedure of trying to prove it wrong. In the case of global warming, billions and billions and dollars are being spent trying to prove it correct. That is backwards.

A hypothesis that has been tested and proven false?

That is a failed hypothesis. Although this sounds like a bad thing, in science it is actually an example of good science. The philosopher Karl Popper declared that real science was defined by hypothesis that could be tested and proven false or true. For example you can make a hypothesis that the falling speed of a body is proportional to its mass. The hypothesis can be put to test and shown false. This was the difference in World view between Aristoteles and Gallilei: Aristoteles put forward the hypothesis and Galilei tested it. Pseudo-science like astrology, religion, philosophy, politics and so on does not put forward testable hypothesis. No pseudo-science dare to put forward a testable hypothesis.

An educated guess based on what you know and what you observe is called which?

It has been taught far too long that "an educated guess" was know as a hypothesis. However, the true meaning of a hypothesis is simply a proposed solution to a problem that must be tested in order to validate and be considered reliable. An hypothesis must also be provable false.
