Answer:
The correct answer is option (c) a success because it did not detect a shift in the interference pattern.
Explanation:
In Michelson and Morley experiment it was considered to be successful.
They both found out that the experiment that was carried out was not a failure since it did not detect any shift in the interference pattern.
With this findings it was widely regarded as correct and precise.
