DQuestion 1 1 pts Which of the following statements is true? Einstein could not identify any flaws in the "ether drag" hypothesis and later went on to accept its validity O Lorentz proposed the "ether drag" hypothesis, which successfully reconciled the observations of Michelson and Morley with the existence of the ether Einstein proposed the "ether drag" hypothesis in order to explain the results of the Michelson-Morley experiment Lorentz proposed the "ether drag" hypothesis, but this hypothesis could not reconcile the observations of Michelson and Morley with the existence of the ether

Explanation / Answer

1. Ether theory was proposed by Lorentz. However, negative results of michelson morley experiment confirmed its non existence. Einstein never accepted, nor proposed this theory.

option 4 is true.

2. In 1919, during a total solar eclipse, Sir Arthur Eddington performed the first experimental test of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity and it proved it correct. From then on numerous experiments have been conducted all over the Globe but none could contradict his theory.

So option 4 is true.
