Is a scientific hypothesis accepted if there is no way to demonstrate the hypothesis wrong?
A scientific hypothesis is not accepted if there is no way to demonstrate the hypothesis wrong. In fact, if there is no way to demonstrate the hypothesis wrong, then it is unfalsifiable and unscientific. For example, if I hypothesize that an all-powerful being created the Universe, there is no way to demonstrate that this hypothesis is wrong. One might argue that none of the natural laws of science require the intervention of an all-powerful being, but then I would simply argue that is because the being designed things that way. Because I can come up with any unfalsifiable explanation for any objection not only is there no way to demonstrate that my hypothesis is wrong, there is also no scientific reason or evidence to believe it is right.

Yes Because.!!(:
What is a scientic theory?
A scientific theory summarizes a hypothesis or group of hypotheses that have been supported with repeated testing. If enough evidence accumulates to support a hypothesis, it moves to the next step; known as a theory; in the scientific method and becomes accepted as a valid explanation of a phenomenon.
Why are hypothesis never accepted by scientist?
Hypotheses are ideas which are, as yet, unsupported by evidence. As a hypothesis becomes backed up by mathematical formulae and observational data, it may, if it is sound, become a theory. All scientific theories began life as hypotheses, it is merely a case of which hypotheses become theories, and which fall down by the wayside after being discredited or having lacked support.
What happens if more than one hypothesis is put forward to explain the same observations?
For a hypothesis to be put forward as a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires that one can test it. A working hypothesis is a provisionally accepted hypothesis proposed for further research.
Is a scientific hypothesis accepted if there is no way to demonstrate that it is wrong?
It is accepted if the data support it.
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.

What does a hypothesis become after it is tested and proven?
A hypothesis, or group of hypotheses, that is accepted as consistently valid is a theory. Either a hypothesis or a theory can be ultimately disproven. One definition of a theory is an accepted hypothesis.

What is true hypothesis are rarely rejected as false a theory is basically the same as a hypothesis therios are ideas accepted as most likely true all scientific studies are share?
Theories are ideas accepted as most likely true. Theories are basically hypotheses which have been tested many times by many people and are found to be true.
What happens if more than one hypothesis is put forward to explain the same observations?
For a hypothesis to be put forward as a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires that one can test it. A working hypothesis is a provisionally accepted hypothesis proposed for further research.
Why don't all hypothesis become theories?
A scientific theory is something that is tried and tested, and not yet disproven. It is close to being scientific 'fact' as you can get. Not all hypotheses will become theories because sometimes they get disproven. That means the hypothesis will need to be changed and tested again.
Why a new scientific hypothesis might be accepted or rejected?
Observational evidence
What are the current hypotheses and their related theories?
For something to be a theory it must have already gone through the hypothesis stage, being tested and accepted.
