Question

Suppose you have made the following hypothesis:The greater the height from which you drop a ball, the faster the ball will be traveling when it hits the ground because gravity has more time to speed it up.If you observed that a ball dropped from a height of 6 feet has a higher speed than a ball dropped from a height of 3 feet, does that evidence support the hypothesis?A.Yes, the evidence supports the hypothesis.B.No, the evidence contradicts the hypothesis.C.The evidence is not related to the hypothesis. please help

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is A) Yes, the evidence supports the hypothesis.

Explanation:

In the field of scientific research, a hypothesis can be described as a tentative statement which can either be proved right or wrong based on the results form the experiments we perform.

As the results from the experiment showed that the ball which was thrown from a greater height had a greater speed, hence this means that the evidence from the experiment supported the hypothesis.
