Question : 32

Statement:
“In 20 years, physics would become redundant because scientists will have solved the mysteries of the universe.”
— Stephen Hawking.

b) if only assumption II is implicit.

c) if either I or II is implicit.

d) if neither I nor II is implicit.

d) if neither I nor II is implicit.
