NO, A theory becomes the hypothesis and after many experiments the hypothesis can become the law of whatever is being tested and tried, be it in physics, chemistry, Biology, and or math.... However everything works in theory.....
Such theories can be called scientific.

An hypothesis is an untested theory or conjecture, so when a hypothesis is tested and passes the test it becomes a proven theory, or possibly a law or reason or explanation. Until then it is an as-yet-unproven possibility or probability. Just make certain that the facts are not twisted to 'prove' the hypothesis, and the results are confirmed by other experiments and experimenters. It is even better if it becomes accepted by those who didn't agree with the idea in the first place, but that is not always possible! -- However, a theory is not born from one tested hypothesis, but many. A theory is the result of multiple hypotheses that are said to be true through multiple experiments. Also, a theory may never be actually proven, but merely accepted as the most reasonable explanation. Since science is constantly changing, theories are constantly being formulated to explain things about ourselves or our surroundings.
A better explanation might exist.
Yes. A hypothesis is a proposed explanation of some observable event. An experiment is designed to test if the hypothesis is possibly correct. Broadly speaking, there are three possible results of an experiment.The results are inconclusive (for example, the experiment was not designed well or some unplanned event occurred).The hypothesis is disproved (the experiment showed that the hypothesis was not a good explanation).The hypothesis is shown to be possible (a hypothesis can never be proven correct because the results could be caused by some factor not considered in the experiment).
After observational evidence is published to support a hypothesis, particularly one that challenges conventional wisdom, scientists begin to analyze the evidence to see if there is some error. This analysis can take weeks to months; if other scientists try to replicate the experiment, it can take a few years. If the initial observations -- and the conclusions that can be drawn from them -- are shown to be correct, scientists (sometimes grudgingly) cease to refer to the original idea as a hypothesis and start to call it a theory.
A hypothesis is an eduacted guess, and a guess has no previous knowledge about it.A hypothesis is usually part of a scientific experiment which involves a method for testing the hypothesis, and either supporting it, or supporting the opposite, the null hypothesis.

A hypothesis is an idea. A theory is an idea that has been tested to some degree without yet being shown false. Actually this is not quite right. Hypothesis is a scientifically validated research question in the form of a statement whihc can be proven or disproven.
Evolution is both: it began as a hypothesis by a scientist who, after some research and thought on the matter, came up with the idea. Since then, that hypothesis has been recognised as a theory, as further evidence came to light supporting the idea and predictions - which were developed based on existing evidence and what the some of the gaps might be - were made, then tested and shown correct.

This Episode is called The Alien Parasite Hypothesis. It was shown on december 9 2010
It's no theory -- it happens. In classical mechanics, an electron of (let's say) 9 eV of energy could not possibly get past a potential difference wall of 10 volts. In quantum mechanics, there is a non-zero probability of it happening. It depends on the thickness of the voltage barrier. And experiments have long since shown the theory is correct.

If the inflation hypothesis is correct, then there are constraints on the size of aninsotropiesin the CMBR. Specifically, no "hot" or "cold" spot can be greater than one degree in size. Five years of data from WMAP have shown clear agreement between the predictions of inflation theory and the actual anisotropies.

As long as you haven't scientifically proven that a statement you make or a phenomenon you describe is actually true and repeatable all over the world, then you may call this statement a hypothesis. It is something you personally believe in, but the rest of the world will not believe you unless you test your hypothesis and prove it right. (Needless to say, if your test results prove your hypothesis wrong, then you need to start over and rephrase the hypothesis.) After repeated empirical testing with getting the same results every time, and when you believe your hypothesis is right, then you might announce your findings to the world by presenting a theory. This theory is accepted by your peers, but only if they get the same results under similar conditions in their own labs. And if your theory is truly revolutionary, resulting in a so-called change of paradigm, then you may expect a Nobel prize at some point.Answer 2:A hypothesis is a guess or proposed explanation for an observed phenomenon. It's a starting point for further investigation. A theory is much more substantial. To become a theory, after the hypothesis is proposed it is tested in various ways. For example, theories can be used to make predictions which can then be tested. And, a after testing a theory has not been contradicted by these tests.
