Because it will perform a test of how two variables might be related. This is when you are doing a real experiment.

Is a hypothesis the same as a factor?

No. A hypothesis is a guess as to what an experiment will show. A factor is some part of the experiment.


What do you do to test a hypothosis?

First you ask a question about what you want to learn, Then you do some research, Next you construct a hypothesis, Then you test the hypothesis by doing an experiment, Next you Analyze your data and draw a conclusion, Communicate your results. And that is the hypothesis.


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 is learned if the data from an experiment do not support the hypothesis?

You need to rethink your hypothesis so it is supported by the data.


What is learned if the data from an experiment do not support the. Hypothesis?

some information; the data still provide valuable information about the hypothesis


Is a testable hypotheses?

One where the validity of the hypothesis can be determined by some test or experiment.


A hypothesis is the correct explanation for some scientific question?

no a hypothesis is your guess of what the outcome is going to be in your experiment. For example. My experiment's question is to see what happens when I mix salt with water. My Hypothesis is the salt will float. Now the correct outcome is the salt sinked. I hope I helped you.


If after doing some research you find that the data doesn't support your hypothesis what should you do?

Propose another hypothesis


When a scientist finds that a hypothesis is wrong the scientist usually?

A hypothesis doesn't necessarily need to be correct. After a scientist has conducted an experiment and discovered that their hypothesis is incorrect, they still have gained the knowledge and the results from their experiment---as well as the correct answer, in some cases. They can use the results from the experiment that tested the original hypothesis to form a new experiment.


What is a test of hypothesis called?

A hypothesis is any idea used to explain and test a scientific idea. To find if it is true, you need to test it, which you do by running some testing, and it may then be proven.


Is it sufficient to do a single experiment to test a hypothesis Why or why not?

Whether or not you write down an hypothesis, if you conduct an experiment, you naturally have a hypothesis since you are trying to find the answer to something and have some sort of expectations.


What do scientists design to test a hypothesis?

A hypothesis is a tentative explanation for an observation, phenomenon, or scientific problem that can be tested by further investigation. Basically, it's an educated guess to a question. Testing a hypothesis is the only way to prove this statement correct or incorrect. A scientist conducts an experiement, using constants and variables, and draws conclusions against the hypothesis. This will prove it to be true or untrue.
