In an experiment the HYPOTHESIS is tested. The hypothesis is the assumption, that you make about something.

You then test it out (or preform and experiment) to see if your hypothesis is correct or wrong.

Tentative means possible
So a possible explanation of any matter on whuch you are working will be called astentative explanation which may be correct or incorrect
If you conduct experiments and get consistent results and then change variables and again get consisnet results.
