Option B is correct: Rolling the box up an inclined plane on a cart.

When using the inclined, Ellen needs to overcome frictional force and the weight component of the box along the ramp which will be less than the total weight of the heavy box. Now, in sliding and rolling the weight of the heavy box along the ramp will be same but the difference will come in the type of the frictional force. Since, the rolling friction is less than the sliding friction. Hence, less force will be required when the box is rolled up an inclined plane on a cart.

Astar is 10 light years away from the earth. Suppose it brightens up suddenly today, after how long can we see this change?
Blababa [14]

The phrase "light year" is a <u><em>distance</em></u> ... it's the distance that light travels through vacuum in one year.

When you look at an object located 1 light year away from you, you see it as it was 1 year ago.

If a star located 10 light years away from us suddenly brightens, or dims, or explodes, we see the event <em>10 years later.</em>
