Relativity is the name for two theories of physics presented by Albert Einstein in 1905 and 1915
respectively, as the Special and General Theories of Relativity. Through them he showed that speed
and position are relative things and that there are no absolute measurements for time and space. He
also stated that matter and energy are interchangeable, a concept that has had considerable bearing on
the development of nuclear physics. In this century, Einstein's Theories of Relativity have
revolutionised ideas about the nature of matter and the universe, as Sir Isaac Newton's laws of gravity
had done to scientific thinking two centuries earlier.

A) there are no definite ways to determine time or location
B) things can be measured by either special or general means

D) before 1905, scientists looked at the universe in the wrong way
E) there's simply no point in worrying about either time or space
23- As stated in the passage, Einstein claimed that…………. . 
A) matter and energy are really exactly the same thing
B) nobody really knows the true nature of matter
C) nuclear energy is definitely the best form of energy
D) the true nature of energy doesn‘t really matter
