When looking at this question, we can easily start by eliminating certain answers. In the selections you've provided, you've shown atmosphere. We can easily eliminate letter A, as that makes absolutely no sense. Moving on, you also eliminate letter B, as that deals with ecosystems and whatnot. And finally, you can eliminate hydrosphere, letter C - as that's not the same. That deals with water, like oceans or rivers.
That leaves you with D) Lithosphere for your answer. The Lithosphere is the rigid part of the earth, the outermost layer, I would say. The crust / mantle. That's why it would be letter D - plate tectonics seem to have relations with the Lithosphere. The lithosphere is affected.
Answer:
Time of flight A is greatest
Explanation:
Let u₁ , u₂, u₃ be their initial velocity and θ₁ , θ₂ and θ₃ be their angle of projection. They all achieve a common highest height of H.
So
H = u₁² sin²θ₁ /2g
H = u₂² sin²θ₂ /2g
H = u₃² sin²θ₃ /2g
On the basis of these equation we can write
u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂=u₃ sinθ₃
For maximum range we can write
D = u₁² sin2θ₁ /g
1.5 D = u₂² sin2θ₂ / g
2 D =u₃² sin2θ₃ / g
1.5 D / D = u₂² sin2θ₂ /u₁² sin2θ₁
1.5 = u₂ cosθ₂ /u₁ cosθ₁ ( since , u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂ )
u₂ cosθ₂ >u₁ cosθ₁
u₂ sinθ₂ < u₁ sinθ₁
2u₂ sinθ₂ / g < 2u₁ sinθ₁ /g
Time of flight B < Time of flight A
Similarly we can prove
Time of flight C < Time of flight B
Hence Time of flight A is greatest .
To minimize neutron leakage from a reactor, the ratio of the surface area to the volume should be a minimum. For a given volume V the ratio of the sphere will be
.
We know that the surface area and volume of the sphere is given by:

Therefore, the ratio between the surface area and the volume for the sphere will be:

Equating the volume to the constant c, we will find the value of
.

Substituting the value of r in the ration between surface area and volume, we get:

Calculating the constants, we get:

Hence, the ration between surface area and volume is
