Very good question. If you try to define physics, you will see that you need definitions and concepts from physics. For example: physics explains the laws and interactions of matter. "Interaction" and "matter" are physical concepts. \n\nSo you will only be able to explain what physics is in an empirical, descriptive way.

Hypothesis: This is an educated guess based upon observation. It is a rational explanation of a single event or phenomenon based upon what is observed, but which has not been proved. Most hypotheses can be supported or refuted by experimentation or continued observation. \n\nTheory: A theory is an explanation of a set of related observations or events based upon proven hypotheses and verified multiple times by detached groups of researchers. One scientist cannot create a theory; he can only create a hypothesis.

In the reference I found they kept referring to both terms without explainging the difference.\n\nI spent some time trying to figure it out but its beyond me. \n\n Even though it means losing 3 points its better to delete this question and consider reposting it with different wording than give the points to someone who does not answer it.
