The needle on a compass always points in the direction of magnetic north because of the magnetic poles of earth. the compass is essentially a magnet itself, so the southern pole of the compass is attracted to the northern pole of earth.
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The force of gravity acting on an object helps in determining the weight of an object. But a place where there will be no gravity or have zero gravitational pull then it means the person will be weightless.
For example, force of gravity on moon is zero which means any object or person on moon will be weightless.
On the other hand, when a child is in the air as she plays on a trampoline then it means gravitational pull form the earth is acting on it. So, it will definitely has some weight.
Similarly, a scuba diver exploring a deep-sea wreck is under the ground where there will be force of gravity. Hence, it will also have some weight.
Thus, we can conclude that an astronaut on the Moon is the person who is weightless.

Kinetic energy is given as =
Now, m = 12 gms = 0.012 kg
And, velocity = 35 kilometers/second = 35000 m/sec
Kinetic energy is given as =
![\frac{1}{2} 0.012 kg * 35000*35000 m/[tex] s^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%200.012%20kg%20%2A%2035000%2A35000%20m%2F%5Btex%5D%20s%5E%7B2%7D%20)
