how is time measured
Answer:
The measurement of time began with the invention of sundials in ancient Egypt some time prior to 1500 B.C. However, the time the Egyptians measured was not the same as the time today's clocks measure. For the Egyptians, and indeed for a further three millennia, the basic unit of time was the period of daylight.
Explanation:
Since 1967, the International System of Measurements bases its unit of time, the second, on the properties of caesium atoms. SI defines the second as 9,192,631,770 cycles of the radiation that corresponds to the transition between two electron spin energy levels of the ground state of the 133Cs atom.

Michelangelo The creation of man.
1. What makes this a renaissance painting?
Answer:
Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam
Michelangelo, Creation of Adam, from the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican, Rome, 1508-1512, fresco
The most famous section of the Sistine Chapel ceiling is Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam. This scene is located next to the Creation of Eve, which is the panel at the center of the room, and the Congregation of the Waters, which is closer to the altar.
The Creation of Adam differs from typical Creation scenes painted up until that time. Here, two figures dominate the scene: God on the right, and Adam on the left. God is shown inside a floating nebulous form made up of drapery and other figures. The form is supported on angels who fly without wings, but whose flight is made clear by the drapery which whips out from underneath them. God is depicted as an elderly, yet muscular, man with grey hair and a long beard which react to the forward movement of flight. This is a far cry from imperial images of God that had otherwise been created in the West dating back to the time of late antiquity. Rather than wearing royal garments and depicted as an all-powerful ruler, he wears only a light tunic which leaves much of his arms and legs exposed. One might say this is a much more intimate portrait of God because he is shown in a state that is not untouchable and remote from Man, but one which is accessible to him.
Unlike the figure of God, who is outstretched and aloft, Adam is depicted as a lounging figure who rather lackadaisically responds to God’s imminent touch. This touch will not only give life to Adam, but will give life to all mankind. It is, therefore, the birth of the human race. Adam’s body forms a concave shape which echoes the form of God’s body, which is in a convex posture inside the nebulous, floating form. This correspondence of one form to the other seems to underscore the larger idea of Man corresponding to God; that is, it seems to reflect the idea that Man has been created in the image and likeness of God – an idea with which Michelangelo had to have been familiar.
One of the questions that has been raised about this scene is the identity of the figures next to God. Given her privileged placement under the arm of God, the female figure is presumably an important one. Traditionally, she has been thought to be Eve, the future wife of Adam, who waits to the side until she is created out of Adam’s rib. More recently, however, a theory has been floated that this is actually the Virgin Mary, who takes this place of honor next to God and the child next to her, who would therefore be the Christ Child. This view is supported by the placement of God’s fingers on the child – the same fingers that the priest would use to raise the Eucharist during the Mass. Since Catholic theology holds that the Eucharist is the Body of Christ, this theological understanding would be embodied in this painting. If this latter interpretation is correct, the Creation of Adam would be intrinsically linked to the future coming of Christ, who comes to reconcile man after the sin of Adam.
In all, the painting shows several hallmarks of Michelangelo’s painting style: the lounging position of both Adam and God, the use of bodies which are both muscular and twisting, and the painting of figures who come across as works of sculpture. It is good to remember that Michelangelo was, after all, a sculptor. Painting was not his primary area.
The Creation of Adam is one of the great jewels of Western art, though it and the rest of the Sistine Chapel ceiling suffered the ill effects of centuries of smoke that had caused the ceiling to darken considerably. It was not until 1977 that the cleaning of the ceiling was begun. The result of the cleaning was astonishing after its completion in 1989; what was once dark and drab became vivid. The change from pre-cleaning to post-cleaning was so great that some initially refused to believe that this is the way Michelangelo actually painted. Today, we have a much better understanding of Michelangelo’s palette and the world he painted, beautifully captured across the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel.

Use the integer tiles to find the quotient:
–18 ÷ 6 =
Answer:
-3
Explanation:
When you are dividing a negative number, by a positive number, the outcome will be negative, because they don't have the same "sign". So, you just divide 18 by 6. Then you get 3. Since they're both not a positive number, you put a negative sign in the front of the 3. Hence: -3.

-3

The ratio of boys to girls in an after school recycling club is 4:7. If there are 20 boys in the recycling club, how many girls are there?
Suppose one more boy joins the recycling club. What is the new ratio of boys to girls in simplest form?
Answer:
4:7
20 divided by 4 = 5
So 5X7= 35.
There are now 35 girls in the club.
New ratio: 20:35
Simplify it.
The simplest form of 20/35 is 4/7.
This IS NOT A TYPO. This IS NOT INCORRECT.
Since we multiplied by 5, and both 20 and 35 are divisible by 5, is will always be 4/7 if you multiply it by 5 in simplest terms.
One more boy joins.
Now the ratio is 5/7.
5/7 cannot be simplified, therefore, 5/7 simplified is 5/7.

Which situation best illustrates an effect of the law of supply?
A. A car company increases sales when incomes rise in a city.
B. A food truck shuts down after a better food truck opens nearby.
C. A factory stops making a brand of phone after the phone's price
decreases.
D. A theme park gains customers after it lowers its ticket prices.
The situation best illustrates the effect of the law of supply "A factory stops making a brand of the phone after the phone's price decreases." Thus, option C is correct.
What is the law of supply?The law of supply is an underlying concept of economic theory that asserts that a rise in price leads to an increase in quantity provided if all other conditions remain constant. In other words, there is a direct link between price and quantity: as price changes, quantities respond in the same manner.
The higher the price, the greater the amount produced, according to the law of supply. When the price of the phone fell, so did the amount produced, which is why the plant shut down.
"A manufacturer stops creating a brand of phone once the phone's price lowers," best depicts the influence of the law of supply. As a result, option C is correct.

For which of the following reasons did Stephen F Austin need a new contract to establish a colony
Answer:
Explanation:
Austin's Colony was the first legal settlement of North American families in Mexican-owned Texas. Led by the Empressario, Stephen F. Austin, an initial grant for three hundred families the "Old 300"in 1821 opened up Texas to a flood of American immigrants, as many as 30,000 by the time of the Texas Revolution in 1835. This colonial period that brought Anglo and African settlers from the United States into contact with the governmental and ranching traditions of Spain and Mexico helped set the course for much of Texas' history in the 19th century and was only overshadowed later by the discovery of oil in Texas in the 20th century.
