Option A, geographic poles are defined by Earth's rotation, is the correct answer.

The rotation of the earth is its revolution around its own shaft. The direction of Earth's rotation is eastward. The North Pole of the Earth is the spot in the Northern Hemisphere where Earth's axle of revolution joins its surface. The South Pole is another location; where the axis of Earth's circumrotation intersects its facade, in Antarctica. The geographical poles of the North and South Poles of the Earth move a few meters over a period of few years.

The poles cannot move 10 km a year because they are connected to earth which moves way more than that

What is the best example of a cyclic event?

Rus_ich [418]

The correct answer is A. The appearance of Halley’s comet every 76 years.

Explanation:

Cyclic events follow a pattern of occurrence, this means they occur every certain time and can be predicted. This category includes natural phenomena such as weather patterns or the phases of the moon. In this context, the one that is an example of a cyclic event is Halley's comet (option A) because the appearance of this comet occurs every certain time (76 years) and this can be predicted, which are two key features of cyclic events. Also, others such as hurricanes, tsunamis, or earthquakes do not follow a precise cycle or cannot be precisely predicted.
