Are hypothesis ever incorrect in an experimentation?

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).


What does this quote mean No amount of experimentation can ever prove you right a single experiment can prove you wrong?

This quote means noting can me right


Does scientific inquiry often begin by drawing a conclusion?

No... scientific inquiry begins by coming up with a question. From there you develop a hypothesis, test the hypothesis, alter your hypothesis if need be, test again, etc. Only after you have data that supports your hypothesis (if it ever does) do you draw any conclusions. If your data consistently does not support your hypothesis, no matter how it is modified, you may draw conclusions about your basic contentions as well. YES BUT..... what should you ask yourself in drawing a conclusion about an experiment?


Should you ever modify a hypothesis?

You can modify it(if u think it your hypothesis is wrong). However,a hypothesis is actually a guess of the result.Thus, it has no right or wrong in your hypothesis.


Why is it impossible to ever prove a hypothesis it true?

Ido

How do you create a hypothesis?

You hypothosize, meaning predict or guess the result of your experiment/lab or whatever it is. For example, what ever the problem is that you are solving, before the experiment/procedure takes place, you guess what the result will be and you tell why.

What is the variable that remains constant in an experiment?

The control is the variable that is held is held constant throughout all experiments, and duplications of them. By isolating control variables sources of error and or influence on a system can be managed and understood.

Never Ever use personal pronouns in a essay or a hypothesis :)


What comprises the scientific method?

1) ask a ? 2) make a hypothesis 3) make an experiment 4) conduct an experiment 5)report results Here is a slightly expanded version of the above: Observe the natural world. Hypothesize a logical explanation for what you observe. Test your hypothesis by means of further observation, analysis, and experimentation. A confirmed hypothesis becomes a theory. Publish your work so that other interested scientists can learn about it and make their own tests to confirm or reject your results. Continue to work toward ever improved understanding of nature.
