Equinoxes occur when neither end of the axis is tilted toward or away from the sun.

Explanation:

The equinoxes happens once the sun's rays strike the equator at twelve noon at an angle of ninety degrees. Because the Earth moves around its orbit, it reaches 2 points throughout the year wherever the lean of its axis causes it to be straight relative to the Sun of late are called equinoxes. Throughout these equinoxes the rays of the Sun shine directly on the equator.

Option (a) is correct. The equinox occurs when neither end of the Earth’s axis is tilted towards or away from the sun.

Further Explanation:

The equinoxes are considered to be the geographical phenomenon on which the length of the day and night on the Earth is exactly same. Basically the equinoxes occur for two times in the span of a year.

Actually the axis of the Earth is inclined to that of the sun at some angle. During its rotation around the sun, the sun’s rays strike the Earth perpendicular at the Equator. At this time, the length of the day and night becomes equal.

The axis of the Earth remains parallel to the axis of the sun during its rotation and it is neither tilted at any angle towards the sun nor away from the sun.

answer would be letter choice (a), a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy > stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger > kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground > kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball flying through the air > kinetic energy > moving energy

hope that : )
