The question is incomplete.
The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.
It is given that:
The Sun is v kilometers from the upper edge of the Earth's atmosphere and q kilometers from the surface of the Earth.
From the figure:
BC = v
AC = g
AB = |v - g|
Thus, the distance between the Earth’s surface and the upper edge of the Earth's atmosphere is |v - g| option (B) |v - g| is correct.
