Q6-10 In the following passage there are blanks each of which has been numbered. These numbers are given below the passage and against each five words have been suggested, one of which fits the blanks appropriately. Find out the appropriate word in each case.
A century ago, Albert Einstein (6) the existence of gravitational waves, small ripples in space-time that dash across the universe at the speed of light. But scientists have been able to find only indirect evidence of their existence. At a news conference called by the U.S. National Science Foundation, researchers announced at long last direct observations of the elusive waves.
The discovery would represent a scientific landmark, opening the door to an entirely new way to observe the cosmos and (7) secrets about the early universe and (8) objects like black holes and neutron stars.
Gravitational waves are small ripples in space-time that are believed to travel across the universe at the speed of light. They are like tiny waves on a lake — from far away, the lake’s surface looks glassy smooth; only up very close can the details of the surface be seen. They were predicted to exist by Albert Einstein in 1916 as a consequence of his General Theory of Relativity. The highly elusive ‘gravitational waves’ have finally been detected. Understandably, and justifiably, there is great (9) within the global physics community, astrophysicists and cosmologists in particular.
While Sir Isaac Newton visualised gravitational force as a pulling force between objects, Albert Einstein (10) it to be a pushing force due to the curvature of four dimensional spacetime fabric. The curvature of spacetime stems from the dent heavy objects produce on spacetime fabric, which can be compared to the dent one could see on a plastic sheet when a massive ball is placed.
