Then every line segment has one and only one mid-point.

Answer:
A. The closest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth
Explanation:
The perigee is defined as the closest point in the orbit of an object (such as a satellite) from the centre of the Earth. In this case, the Earth's satellite is the Moon, so the perigee is defined as the closest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth. so option A is the correct one.
Let's see instead the names of the other options:
B. The farthest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth --> this point is called apogee
C. The closest point in Earth's orbit of the Sun --> this point is called perihelion
D. The Sun's orbit that is closest to the Moon --> this point has no specific name
Answer:
Option ( B ) is correct .
Explanation:
To lift a heavy weight , inclined plane is used . Use of inclined plane , makes the task easier because instead of force mg , force mg sinθ is to be used which is less than mg . Here θ is inclination of inclined plane.
If h be the height by which weight is to be lifted
potential energy acquired by weight = mgh
work done by force mg sinθ = mgsinθ x d where d is displacement required .
mg sinθ x d = mgh ( work done by force = potential energy stored in luggage )
d = h / sinθ
d will be more than h
Hence inclined plane increases the distance to be covered by force applied though it decreases the force itself.
Hence option ( B ) is correct .
