What is a scientist hypothesis?

A hypothesis is a temporary explanation for some observation. It is then tested and, if is found to be incorrect, a new one has to be formed. If found to be correct, it becomes a theory. If that theory is later found to have a counter-example it is modified (hypothesis -> theory - same process) or a completely new hypothesis proposed and tested. The hypothesis alwasy comes before the theory. it is a practical explanation that the scientist develops that accounts for a theory.


What is a certifying officers maximum level of precuniary liability with regards to erroneous payments?

A certifying officer's maximum level of pecuniary liability for erroneous payments is typically limited to the amount of the erroneous payment itself. This liability arises when a certifying officer certifies a payment that is later determined to be improper due to a lack of legal entitlement or other errors. However, if the officer is found to be negligent or to have acted with willful misconduct, they may face greater liability. Specific limits can vary based on agency policies and applicable laws.
