Explanation:
Whenever there occurs a decrease in the density of a substance then this is known as rarefaction.
For example, when particles of a gas become more dispersed or spread out then it means they have gained more kinetic energy. As a result, there will occur a decrease in mass of the gas and increase in volume of the gas.
As density is mass divided by volume. Hence, decrease in mass will also lead to a decrease in density of the gas.
Therefore, we can conclude that when the molecules in the air become less dense (as in the process of hearing), rarefaction has occurred.
Answer: Gravity.
Explanation:
Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground.
The correct answer is option C, 2.5
