Question

1 newtons discovery is called the universal law of gravity. he recognized that gravity applied to more than just an apple. what word is most similar to universal? a worldwide b local c accepted d widespread

Explanation:

"Universal" means applicable or existing everywhere. "Worldwide" directly refers to covering the entire world, matching the scope of "universal". "Widespread" means existing or happening over a large area/among many people, which also aligns with the broad, all-encompassing meaning of "universal". "Local" refers to a limited area, which is the opposite, and "Accepted" means agreed upon, which does not match the meaning of covering all cases.

Answer:

A. Worldwide, D. Widespread
