Answer: The correct answer is Option B.

Explanation:

Sun is star present in Our Solar System around which Earth revolves. Earth is the third planet in Our Solar system and is the only planet on which life exists.

The existence of life on Earth is because of the Sun. It plays a very important role. Sun helps the earth to keep moving in a fixed orbit because of the gravitational attraction towards the Sun. It also supports the processes of water cycle on Earth by evaporating the water.

The climate and temperature conditions on Earth is due to the Sun only.

Plate tectonics is the theory which states that the Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates which glide over the mantle. There is no role of Sun to play in the process of plate tectonics.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

The wheel and axle increases your force. You exert your input force over a long distance and the output force is increased over a shorter distance. (Because the wheel is larger than the axle, the axle rotates and exerts a large output force.) A simple machine with a grooved wheel with a rope or cable wrapped around it.

He has a mass of 56 kg.

The equation given is PE = mgh.

PE = 4620 J

h = 8.4

g = 9.8

Therefore:

4620 = 82.32m

m = 4620/82.32
m = 56 (rounded to two significant digits)

A boat sails south with the help of a wind blowing in the direction S36°E with magnitude 300 lb. Find the work done by the wind
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The work done by the wind as the boat moves 130 ft is (rounded) W= 31,550 ft-lb.

Explanation:

F= 300 lb < -54º

Fsouth= 300 lb * cos(36º)

Fsouth= 242.7 lb

d= 130 ft

W= F*d

W= 31551 ft-lb
