Answer:

A. Less than 2.9

Explanation:

Richter scale is a measure of the intensity of the earthquakes designed and developed by Charles Richter in 1935. Its value ranges from 1.0 to 9.0 and greater. The earthquakes having a Richter magnitude of less than 2.9 are minor earthquakes which are slightly felt by a few humans but can be recorded on a seismograph. Earthquakes with magnitude above 2.9 can easily be felt by humans.

Why can gases be compressed
Keith_Richards [23]
Gases can be compressed, because they just take up the space surrounding them. The attractive forces between the particles in a gas are very weak, so the particles are free to move in random direction. They just move along until they collide, either with the walls of the container or with each other. Moreover, gases can be compressed because the particles are far apart and they have space to move into.

Rolling friction .<span> the force that slows down the movement of a rolling object</span>
sliding friction.
Sliding friction : The opposing force that comes into play when one body is actually sliding over the surface of the other body is called sliding friction. e.g. A flat block is moving over a horizontal table.

Kinetic or dynamic friction: If the applied force is increased further and sets the body in motion, the friction opposing the motion is called kinetic friction
