The answer is letter A. meteorite bombardment.
During the Earth's earliest beginning, it went through a period of catastrophic and intense formation. By 3-8- 4.1 billion years ago, Earth's atmosphere was never the same as today. This is because of its formation during the pre-Cambrian period whereby t<span>he Earth formed under so much heat and pressure that it formed as a molten planet.

Earth was bombarded continuously by the remnants of the dust and debris — like asteroids, meteors and comets — until it formed into a solid sphere, pulled into orbit around the sun and began to cool down during the Hellish period (4.5 to 3.8 billion years ago).

At time t=0, a particle is located at the point (3,6,9). It travels in a straight line to the point (5,2,7), has speed 8 at (3,6

Elis [28]

The particle has constant acceleration according to

$\vec a(t)=2\,\vec\imath-4\,\vec\jmath-2\,\vec k$

Its velocity at time $t$ is

$\displaystyle\vec v(t)=\vec v(0)+\int_0^t\vec a(u)\,\mathrm du$

$\vec v(t)=\vec v(0)+(2\,\vec\imath-4\,\vec\jmath-2\,\vec k)t$

$\vec v(t)=(v_{0x}+2t)\,\vec\imath+(v_{0y}-4t)\,\vec\jmath+(v_{0z}-2t)\,\vec k$

Then the particle has position at time $t$ according to

$\displaystyle\vec r(t)=\vec r(0)+\int_0^t\vec v(u)\,\mathrm du$

$\vec r(t)=(3+v_{0x}t+t^2)\,\vec\imath+(6+v_{0y}t-2t^2)\,\vec\jmath+(9+v_{0z}t-t^2)\,\vec k$

At at the point (3, 6, 9), i.e. when $t=0$ , it has speed 8, so that

$\|\vec v(0)\|=8\iff{v_{0x}}^2+{v_{0y}}^2+{v_{0z}}^2=64$

We know that at some time $t=T$ , the particle is at the point (5, 2, 7), which tells us

$\begin{cases}3+v_{0x}T+T^2=5\\6+v_{0y}T-2T^2=2\\9+v_{0z}T-T^2=7\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}v_{0x}=\dfrac{2-T^2}T\\\\v_{0y}=\dfrac{2T^2-4}T\\\\v_{0z}=\dfrac{T^2-2}T\end{cases}$

and in particular we see that

$v_{0y}=-2v_{0x}$

and

$v_{0z}=-v_{0x}$

Then

${v_{0x}}^2+(-2v_{0x})^2+(-v_{0x})^2=6{v_{0x}}^2=64\implies v_{0x}=\pm\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3$

$\implies v_{0y}=\mp\dfrac{8\sqrt6}3$

$\implies v_{0z}=\mp\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3$

That is, there are two possible initial velocities for which the particle can travel between (3, 6, 9) and (5, 2, 7) with the given acceleration vector and given that it starts with a speed of 8. Then there are two possible solutions for its position vector; one of them is

$\vec r(t)=\left(3+\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3t+t^2\right)\,\vec\imath+\left(6-\dfrac{8\sqrt6}3t-2t^2\right)\,\vec\jmath+\left(9-\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3t-t^2\right)\,\vec k$
