Solution and Explanation
To determine the correct sequence of the jumbled sentence parts, let's analyze the given parts of the sentence:
- P: By the mass of earth
- Q: Everything on or
- R: Near the surface of
- S: The earth is attracted
To construct a coherent and meaningful sentence, we need to identify the logical flow of ideas within the context of gravitational attraction by the Earth.
The most logical starting point is part Q: "Everything on or", as it introduces the subject matter of the sentence.
Following Q, part R: "Near the surface of" continues the description of the location related to this "Everything".
Next, S: "The earth is attracted" completes the main action being described - that of attraction by the Earth.
Finally, part P: "By the mass of earth" provides an explanation for why "The earth is attracted", completing the sentence with its scientific cause.
Thus, the correct sequence is QRSP, and the complete sentence is: "Everything on or near the surface of the earth is attracted by the mass of earth."
Therefore, the correct answer is QRSP.
