The best example of a hypothesis for this test from the options provided is:

**If a bouncy ball is dropped from a height of one meter, then it will bounce one hundred times before coming to rest.**

This statement is a clear hypothesis because it sets up a condition (the bouncy ball is dropped from a height of one meter) and makes a specific prediction about the outcome (it will bounce one hundred times).
