An example of a hypothesis leading to a new experiment is this: GALILEO HAD THE IDEA THAT OBJECTS OF DIFFERENT WEIGHT WILL FALL AT THE SAME SPEED. HE TESTED THIS BY DROPPING DIFFERENT BALLS OFF OF THE LEANING TOWER OF PISA.
A scientific hypothesis refers to a proposed explanation, which is made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigations. A scientific hypothesis must be tested in order to determine whether it is true or not. Galileo had an idea that objects will different weights will fall at the same rate and he tested the hypothesis by dropping different weights from a height. By doing this, he found out that the hypothesis is right.
