5 0

Answer:

The second option : The closer a star is to us, the more parallax it exhibits.

Explanation:

When a star is close to the observer, it is possible to better see the difference in movement and distant because of space behind or other stars close to it, so we can measure distances from these celestial bodies by using parallax. Just as trees seem to move more than the mountains in the background during a car trip, so do stars, but in a much more imperceptible way. The closer to the viewer the more parallax will display.

Which is not a source of electrical energy in the United States
xenn [34]

Every practical source of energy that you can imagine, as well as a few impractical ones, are used somewhere in the USA.

From whale oil in Alaska, to nuclear energy, to coal, petroleum, natural gas, solar energy, wind energy, and biomass.

Oh ! Geothermal energy and tidal energy aren't too popular, but I'll bet if you looked, you'd find these used too, SOMEwhere in the 50 states.
