summary of the story "Nikola Tesla: the greatest inventor of all?"

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Serbian-American engineer and physicist Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) made dozens of breakthroughs in the production, transmission and application of electric power. He invented the first alternating current (AC) motor and developed AC generation and transmission technology. Though he was famous and respected, he was never a​b​l​e to translate his copious inventions into long-term financial success—unlike his early employer and chief rival, Thomas Edison.

Who is
represented in the language of The
Declaration of Independence? What
populations were included/ excluded?
What populations are still excluded How
and why is this a problem?

Answers

Explanation:

The language of the  Declaration of Independence has been argued by some historians to represent the views of "American colonists" because the declaration was written to mark the founding of the United States from the colonist's quest for independence.

Some believed that the populations mentioned when the declaration of independence was first made excluded women,  native Americans, African Americans, and children, but included men.

The declaration of independence made no outright "condemnation of slavery" in a sense, some would say, it still excludes the African American populations.

In Of Mice and Men, who causes the suffering?

Answers

Answer:

in of mice and men almost all characters suffer in some way.For example George: He had promised lennies grandma that he would take care of him and now to keep the promise; he has to keep up with his childish behaviour and stupidity which is clearly slowly driving him insane:in this case the suffering was caused by Lenny.

Lennie also suffers in a few ways, he suffers financially, mentally and socially. Since Lennie is not the smartest guy, it is very difficult for him to find work. He has a hard time listening and he has a very hard time making good decisions and therefore not many people want to hire him but George is there to help him find work but even though Lennie is able to find work he still is very low on cash because the ranch doesn't pay him what he deserves and what he does get paid is only just enough to live off.

When I decided where to go to college, for example, I thought I had considered every factor and made the best possible choice. Should the writer add this sentence after sentence 1 ?

Answers

Answer:

Yes. This sentence must be added.

Explanation:

The above sentence shows a personal experience of the author of the letter and shows his ability to reason and choose, showing that he has an active and reflective brain, that he has the ability to analyze and that he does not act with emotion in the domain, but rather as the reason. This sentence, in a way, has the ability to present the author of the letter and illustrate his personality and identity.

Select all that apply.

Which of the following can be used as links?

semicolons
dashes
commas
question marks
colons

Answers

Answer:

Dashes and commas

Explanation:

One of the functions of dashes and commas is to mark an interruption from the rest of a sentence. These punctuation marks can be used in pairs (when they are in the middle of a sentence) or alone (mainly when they are at the end of the sentence) and their main difference is that while commas are used to mark off a weak interruption, dashes mark a strong interruption.

Examples:

He loved me — that's what he had said— but he left abruptly and never came back.

Mark wanted a family — or so he believed.

I liked your company, of course, but I had to go home.

The answers are, semicolons, dashes, and commas.

These can all be used to link a sentence.

Question marks cannot be used because they are used mark an end of a sentence, and colons cannot either because they are used in singular words.

Who were the initiators for the book burnings in Germany and what was their motivation?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

It was the college students and teachers that led the movement of the book burning. The German Student Union with the support and encouragement of their professors organized the first book burnings in 1933.

Lists were made of books that were considered to be subversive to the political correctness of Nazism. Books by Jews, liberals, socialists, evangelical Christians, were targeted. The first books to be burned were by Karl Marx and Albert Einstein. American author Hemingway was targeted as being too pacifistic.

Burning books was a method of enforcing politically correct thought in the 1933. It can be argued that there is a danger of the present climate of political correctness on today's college climate becoming similar to the actions of college students in Nazi Germany.

Who was JFK’s audience? To whom was he trying to appeal? Why?

Answers

Answer:

If you're referencing his inaurgual speech then he is addressing both his supporters and those who voted against him. He won by very few votes so he made a non-partisan speech. He appealed to the nationalism of American freedom. This appeal went to all Americans to show he was fit to serve all the countries President. His speech mostly focused on foreign affairs to stay neutral and supportive of American freedom.

President Kennedy’s inaugural speech addressed not only the American people, but also people throughout the world—including newly independent nations, old allies, and the Soviet Union. In this lesson plan, students are challenged to consider how the speech might have resonated with some of these audiences. His inaugural address encompassed the major themes of his campaign and would define his presidency during a time of economic prosperity, emerging social changes, and diplomatic challenges.

He realized early that the best strategy was to harass the British. He reported to Congress, "we should on all occasions avoid a general action, or put anything to the risque, unless compelled by a necessity, into which we ought never to be drawn." Ensuing battles saw him fall back slowly, then strike unexpectedly. Finally in 1781 with the aid of French allies—he forced the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown.

Washington’s key battle strategy of harassment against the British led to the surrender of Cornwallis in 1781.
If it were not for America’s French allies, Washington would not have been able to force the surrender of Cornwallis.
Washington made many speeches to Congress during the war against the British while he was an army commander.

Cheerleading is a great activity for young men and women. It has risen in
popularity in recent years and is a good way to show off a variety of skills.
Cheerleaders must be precise, energetic, and able to motivate crowds. There
are two main types of cheerleading: sideline and competitive. Sideline
cheerleaders are the cheerleaders you see cheering on the sidelines at
football or basketball games. They shout out cheers and do some basic jumps
and tumbling. Competitive cheerleading allows cheerleading squads to
compete against each other. They participate in routines where they can
show off their precision, flexibility, stunting, and tumbling. Cheerleading
programs can start as young as age 2 and go up through the college level.
Both males and females can be cheerleaders. Male cheerleaders are often
used as spotters when stunting because of their strength. Cheerleading can
be a private sport or club that is not affiliated with any schools, or it can be a
school sport. In order to become a cheerleader, the athlete must try out and
demonstrate their skill set before a group of judges. Only the most skilled are
chosen to become a cheerleader.
