<em>Choice-A </em>is a true statement. The string holding the ball in orbit is a contact force, whereas gravity is a non-contact force.
Choice-C is half-true. The string keeps the distance between the bodies constant, but gravity doesn't "MAKE" the distance vary.
I think the airplan flies in same speed 400
Is this a multiple choice question?
If not, well then the answer is that the volcano sort of sinks into the ground. Like it sort of subducts.
Hope this helped!!!:)
