False.


Is it possible to determine the cardinality of any set?

Not at all. The set may be defined in a way that makes this impossible. Consider the following set: "The set of all exceptions to Goldbach's Conjecture". It isn't known whether there areany exceptions. If there aren't, the set is empty. If there are exceptions, the set will have some elements - but we simply don't know. Assuming that one day the Goldbach Conjecture will be proved (or disproved), there will still be other conjectures in Number Theory that can never be proved or disproved, and a similar set can be defined for one of those.


In the nineteenth century Euclidean geometry was disproved by spherical geometry which was in turn disproved by hyperbolic geometry.g?

No. Spherical geometry did not disprove Euclidean geometry but demonstrated that more than one geometries were possible. Different circumstances required different geometries. Similarly hyperbolic geometry did not disprove either of the others.

Why was Aristotles theory incorrect?

Aristotle's theory of physics was based on incorrect assumptions, such as the idea of natural motion and the geocentric model of the universe. His theory was also limited by the lack of empirical evidence and the constraints of technology available during his time. Ultimately, the advancements in science and technology over the centuries have disproved many of his ideas.
