[bws.03] a scientist uses a computer model to understand a widely accepted theory about earth's surface. the computer model would most likely the scientist to reduce the intensity of earthquakes discover new facts about the theory stop the creation of faults during earthquakes prove that the theory would not change in the future

The computer model would most likely help the scientist to discover new facts about the theory

Explanation:

Two common uses of the models are 1) provide understanding, and 2) make predictions.

So, the discovery of new facts about the theory may be a contribution of the computer model, that is in accordance with the expectations about a model.

On the other hand, the other statements are not the scope ot a model about a theory already accepted:

- to reduce the intensity of earthquakes: none theory has worked out the way to reduce the intensity of the earthquakes.

- stop the creation of faults during earthquakes: none theory can provide to stop the creation of faults during earths quakes.

Those two are physical phenomenas that the models cannot change.

- prove that the theory would not change in the future: new knwoledge, observations and tests lead to the modification or replacing ot old theoires. .

Heat is involved in chemical change in two ways; chemical changes either result in heat being added to or removed from an object, and chemical changes require a certain amount of heat before they can take place.
