Okay, so the question here is, a hypothesis is a statement that can be tested through a scientific investigation.
00:07
What is the purpose of writing a hypothesis? so the answer here is a hypothesis or hypotheses help identify variables.
00:22
Because hypothesis has to be a testable statement.
00:26
So a hypothesis can be, let's say in terms of gravity, right? if we're trying to say we're in the time of like isaac newton and we're trying to test various hypotheses with gravity the very simple thing is um if i drop an apple and a ball they will fall at the same speed okay so this is a hypothesis that is a hypothesis that testable.
01:21
It's testable because the answer can be yes.
01:23
They follow the same speed.
01:25
Or they can be no.
01:27
They do not follow the same speed.
01:29
But it's a yes or no answer, right? and it also tells us what the variables are, right? the independent variable, what we're testing here is the speed.
01:41
That's the variable.
01:51
Sorry.
01:53
I'm so sorry, guys...
