The two theories always make very different predictions, and only Einstein's theory works. Einstein's theory is newer, and scientists alvways prefer newer theories. Newton's theory was never useful, so it had to be replaced by something. Einstein's gravity makes correct predictions in a few cases where Newton's…arrow_forward
