The correct answer is D - The people.

Popular sovereignty is a doctrine which states that the source of governmental power lies with the people . The principle comes from the concept of  social contract and the idea that government ought to be for the benefits of its citizens. If the government fails to protect the people then it should be dissolved.

This theory was given birth by the writings of Thomas  Hobbes , John Locke  and Jean Jacques Rousseau.

For a spacecraft going directly from the Earth to the Moon, beyond what point will lunar gravity begin to dominate? That is, whe
loris [4]

Answer:

3.46 x 10^8 m

Explanation:

Let the distance from the earth be r, total distance from earth to moon be d,

then distance from the moon to the point of equal gravity= d -r.

Mass of the earth, M_E = 598 x 10^22 kg

Mass of the moon, M_m= 7.36 x 10^22 kg

Distance of the mood from the earth, d = 3.85 x 10^8 m

Force of gravity exerted on a mass, m by the earth,

             F_E = G. M_E×m/r^2

Force of gravity exerted on a mass, m by the moon,

              F_m = G×M_m×m/(d-r)^2

These are equal,  So

 G×M_E.m/r^2 =G×M_m.m/(d-r)^2

     [r/(d - r)]^2=  M_E/M_m

    = 598/7.36 = 81.25

      r/(d - r) = √81.25 = 9.014

      9.014×(d - r) = r

    10.014.r = 9.014 x 3.85 x 108

Hence,    r= 9.014 x 3.85 x 108 /10.014

             = 3.46 x 10^8 m
