That is progress, you start with a hypothesis, e.g. the moon is made of cheese, then it is tested by experiments to see if it's right. If the experiment says it's wrong, that is something that does not have to be tested again.

Can a hypothesis that has been rejected be of any value to scientists?
Yes. But usually a hypothesis (if, then, because statement) is changed overtime to establish a conclusion on the investigation. The point of the collection of the data is to show whether or not the hypothesis was supported, and if not needs to be corrected/modified. Certain parts may still be helpful/kept but in most cases it is changed
Why do scientists use hypothesis?
The scientific method is how scientists make an hypothesis to focus their observations.
Which is more helpful proving a hypothesis wrong or supporting a hypothesis?
To do it right
Why might scientists rethink a hypothesis?
The scientists might Rethink there Hypothesis because when they collect more data they would know more about what they are doing so they would rethink there hypothesis
Do scientist consider a hypothesis to be a fact?
yes scientists consider hypothesis to be a fact
Is the rejection of a hypothesis help to scientists?
Yes, it is helpful because they can learn from their mistakes and not do the same mistake again.
Why is the rejection of a hypothesis helpful to scientist?
A rejected hypothesis could be helpful to a scientist because it helps them create a theory by process of elimination.

yes scientists consider hypothesis to be a fact
How does a scientists theory differ from a hypothesis?
Theories are proven. Hypothesis are ideas.
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.
