The answer should be option A "running water." Running water is the same as moving water which is the largest contributor to erosion. Moving water is compaction on the rock. Example of moving water is like waves slamming on rocks near shore which breaks away the rock which is erosion.

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

Pulsar is also called as<u> neutron stars or white dwarfs.</u> These are formed after the supernova explosion. Their mass is higher than a normal star. And the most different thing we find in pulsar is that, in a pulsar the proton and electrons combine themselves to form a neutron. That's why this is also called as neutron star. After neutron or white dwarf the star goes to the black dwarf stage.

Remember when the core of the iron becomes iron rich that time it cannot sustain further nucleo synthesis process, that's why it goes for a supernova explosion. Which results the formation of neutron star or white dwarf, followed by black dwarf or black hole.

Answer: 6.313 miles

Explanation:

The distance is calculated by Simple Rule of Three:

$x = \frac{100000 AU}{1 AU}\cdot 4 in \cdot (\frac{1 mi}{63360 in}) \\x = 6.313 mi$
