A scientific hypothesis must be capable of being disproved and what?
A scientific hypothesis must be capable of being disproved, meaning it should be testable through observation and experimentation. This allows scientists to potentially falsify the hypothesis if evidence contradicts it. Additionally, a good hypothesis should be clear and specific, providing predictions that can be evaluated through empirical investigation. This process is essential for advancing scientific knowledge and ensuring that theories are grounded in observable reality.
What are the good characteristic of a hypothesis?
A good research hypothesis must first, and most importantly, have a testable hypothesis. The hypothesis should be stated, it is not a question. It should be brief and to the point. Finally, there should some previous research that should be used to help form the hypothesis.
Why should hypothesis should be testable?
Hypothesis testing is how science progresses. Scientists come up with hypotheses (pl. for hypothesis) based on their observations and what is Known to be true (i.e. Laws of Physics...like gravity). Hypotheses are designed to answer a question and, by definition, MUST be DISprovable. If a hypothesis cannot be disproven, it has no value. For example, if I look outside and then say "I see the sky is blue"...that is not a hypothesis, it is an observation (or maybe a fact...albeit an optical illusion). However, if I look out the window and say "the sky ALWAYS appears blue"....That is a hypothesis, because it is testable and can be disproven, since tomorrow it might be gray.
Why should experiments should be replicable?
An experiment is constructed to prove a hypothesis. If you do A+B-C; then you should always arrive at D as a result. Do a thousand test experiments without variation and the result should always be D. When you publish your results, other scientists around the world who follow the steps in the experiment you have outlined will also always arrive at the same result. These replications of the experiment by your peers will prove the validity of your hypothesis.
What should be A good hypothesis?
A correct or good hypothesis includes if then and because. A hypothesis must be a possible answer and must be testable
The scientists of wegeners time should have accepted his hypothesis .why or why not?
yes because they didnt know how wegners inteligence was and they should have tried it in the firts place anyway it would have helped relize that his hypothesis waas correct when they dobt of him!
Is a scientist hypothesis accepted if there is no way to prove that they 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.
The scientists of wegener's time should have accepted his hypothesis Why or why not?
yes because they didnt know how wegners inteligence was and they should have tried it in the firts place anyway it would have helped relize that his hypothesis waas correct when they dobt of him!
What describes the correct order for using the scientific?
A scientists should form a hypothesis, then conduct an experiment.
Why is a hypothesis that is unsupported by observation rejected by scientists?
Simply put, because there is not enough evidence to support it. "Rejected by scientists" should not be taken to always mean "scientist believe it is impossible" - rather, consistent evidence that support the hypothesis has not been produced.
What dose it mean if a scientists fails to reject a hypothesis?
It means there is no reason why he should reject it, whether because there is no evidence to the contrary or because an experiment set up to test it affirmed that hypothesis.
How is a scientific hypothesis best evaluated?
A scientific hypothesis is best evaluated through the scientific method, which involves making observations, formulating a hypothesis, designing and conducting experiments, analyzing the data, and drawing conclusions. The hypothesis should be testable, falsifiable, and reproducible to be considered valid. Peer review and replication of experiments by other scientists are also important for evaluating the validity of a hypothesis.
What should you do after you form a hypothesis?
test your hypothesis.
What can scientists do if the results of an experiment do not support a hypotheses?
They should try again. Then check very carefully and see if they did the experiment correctly. They may have to change their hypothesis.
The scientist of wegeners should have rejected his idea?
no because then they would know least about the world
For what do scientists use the data from a controlled experiment?
Whenever possible, a hypothesis should be tested by an experiment in which only one variable is changed at a time. All other variables should be kept untouched and unchanged. Scientists use the data from a controlled experiment to explain the steps and outcomes that produced their final product.
What should you do if your data doesnt support your hypothesis?
Reevaluate your hypothesis, or reject the hypothesis. You should also recheck your data.
