question 73

Multiple Choice

How does relativity compare to Newtonian physics?

• A) Relativity gives the same result as Newtonian physics when objects are moving slowly.
• B) Relativity gives results that contradict many predictions of Newtonian physics, so we know the latter is incorrect.
• C) Relativity must be better because it is a newer theory than Newtonian physics.
• D) Newtonian physics and relativity make the same predictions, but it's easier to compute results using relativity.
• E) Newtonian physics makes predictions that are at odds with certain observations, whereas relativity is consistent with those observations.
