Newtonian physics dominated science for over two centuries. It found consistently successful application, becoming one of the most highly substantiated and accepted theories in the history of science. Nevertheless, Einstein's theories came to show the fundamental limits of Newtonian physics and to surpass the Newtonian view in the early 1900s, giving rise once again to a physics that has so far enjoyed wide success.
Which one of the following logically follows from the statements above?
A.The history of physics is characterized by a pattern of one successful theory subsequently surpassed by another.
B.Long-standing success or substantiation of a theory of physics is no guarantee that the theory will continue to be dominant indefinitely.
C.Every theory of physics, no matter how successful, is eventually surpassed by one that is more successful.
D.Once a theory of physics is accepted, it will remain dominant for centuries.
E.If a long-accepted theory of physics is surpassed, it must be surpassed by a theory that is equally successful.
What's the best approach to determine the answer? Can any experts help?
