Gravity.

Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation was simple, but failed to explain motions like the precession of Mercury, so for greater accuracy we now use Einstein's Relativity. As relativity is incompatible with quantum physics we will probably eventually replace it with something more complex and more accurate.

Unless we just want an estimate, then we use the old simple one that's not quite right, but is close-enough.

How is the big bang theory is an example od scienctific theory?

Hello i am minakshi answer is that the big bang theory is an example of old scientific theory as big bang theory explains that there was an explosion but the isotropy and the homogenity of the universe is not explained by big bang theory to explain his we connect inflatation theory with big bang theory to explain it so the big bang theory is also an example of old scientific theory.
