The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached, we can comment on the following.
In 1957, Russia successfully launched a satellite named Sputnik into orbit. The impact of this achievement on the United States was the following.
American people reacted to Sputnik 1 with fear and concern. United States citizens were concerned that they were inferior to the Soviets in terms of science, technology, and missiles.
Four years later, the Soviet Union decided to send astronaut Yuri Gagarin. He was the first human into space. His capsule was named "Vostok," which completed its orbit on April 12, 1961.
The response to the launching of Sputnik by the Soviet Union in 1957 and the sending of Gagarin was that the US federal government began spending billions of dollars to improve American science education.
The space program had to be sped up because, in those years of the Cold War, it was inadmissible for the United States to behind the Soviet Union in the space race. The United States federal government also invested a lot in education and space research.
Black people, African Americans were hired by NASA to help develop the science and mathematics calculations to develop better rockets that could equal the Soviet feat.
8. Since 1980, many factories have increase production while simultaneously
reducing their number of employees. This increase in efficiency has largely been
the result of *
A)communism
B)subsidies
C)automation
D)Offshoring
Answer:
C). Automation
Explanation:
'Automation' is characterized as the process where the manufacturing units and industries largely rely upon the automatic technological devices and equipment for producing goods, as well as services. Such application of technology to the production sector requires little or no human intervention that leads to the reduction in the number of employees despite having an increased rate of production with efficacy, reliability, and efficiency. Thus, this enhanced efficiency in production is clearly the product of 'automation' through minimizing human input and reliability on technological devices, equipment, and machines. Hence, option C is the correct answer.
The War Industries Board: In 1917, the War Industries Board was created. The War Industries Board took over the production and distribution of goods and resources needed for the war effort. For example, items such as oil, metals, food, and rubber were very valuable to the army. The War Industries Board was given the power to set prices on these items (and hundreds of others) so that no one could charge unfairly high prices for materials needed to help our soldiers win the war. This helped the government obtain all of the supplies they needed at the lowest cost possible, but meant that many American businesses were forced to sell their goods for lower prices than they wanted to.
reasons to support the decision?
Answer:
Emergency times call for Emergency measures.
The United States was at war and so needed as many resources as it could gather to defend itself against the aggression of the Central powers. In times like such where the security of the nation is threatened, emergency measures by the government are necessary to ensure victory and so this was justified.
Resource allocation.
In war, there are many things that the government needs to spend money on ranging from weapons acquisition to the salaries of the millions that were called up to fight. Money needs to be allocated carefully to each of these so that the war effort is sustained.
If the War Industries Board had not taken over and people charged the government whatever they wanted, the government would be forced to pay high prices for certain goods and this would reduce the amount of money left for other key aspects of the war effort.
Efficiency and Coordination
In matters of war, it is important that the efforts of a country are coordinated so that there will be efficiency in it's war response. This was why the War Industries Board was important. By taking over and setting prices, the Board was able to produce what needed to be produced at a price it needed to be produced at to ensure that the war effort was sustained.

Why was the battle of Midway such an important battle in the war for the Pacific? Explain your answer.
Answer: It effectively ended Japanese Naval Supremacy.
Explanation:
Before the Battle of Midway, the Japanese were a very formidable force in the Pacific. Their navy boasted of several aircraft carriers which allowed them to sink ships with planes and they used this to devastating effect against the Americans at Pearl Harbor and the Australians.
The Japanese knew that if they could capture Midway, they would get the opportunity to negotiate favorably with the Americans and the Americans knew they could not lose Midway due to its strategic location.
The Americans broke the Japanese code for the battle and figured out their plans and used this to inflict a heavy loss on the Japanese by sinking 4 of their aircraft carriers. The Japanese Navy never recovered from this and for the rest of the war, they were on the defensive.
Why did the Soviet government's transition to collectivization result in widespread starvation?
Peasants were not allowed to keep food until they met government quotas.
Collectivization's new methods resulted in a slowdown in crop production.
Many people were forced out of jobs when farms turned to collectivization.
The government punished former farm workers who refused industrial jobs.
Answer:
The peasants would be unable to provide enough for the quotas and so their goods were simply taken away from them and instead were given to the cities and the military. Millions of peasants as a result would starve to death and would end up moving to the cities where all of the food was being sent.Explanation:
Collectivization caused widespread hunger in the Soviet Union because there was a drastic decrease in crop production. The correct answer thus is B.
What is Collectivization?Collectivization is used to describe Soviet policy that was adopted in the periods that fall between 1929 and 1933.
The objective was to change traditional agriculture in the Soviet Region and enervate the Kulaks economically.

they proved.
Answer:
Joe Louis: Joe Louis held the heavyweight title for 140 consecutive months, the longest such streak in boxing history. Many people regarded him as the first black national hero. He also fought two internationally publicized bouts.
Jesse Owens: During the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Adolf Hitler attempted to use the Games as a showcase for his Third Reich and the supposed superiority of the Aryan race.
After winning the Olympics, some of the personal aspects of his discrimination were slowly released. Owens could then eat the all-white restaurants, and travel with the whites as well. But this didn’t happen all at once. In fact, his National achievements were still looked down upon. Whether being the most successful man in the world, Owens was still a black man, and black men were only seen through the eyes of the white as slaves. However, keep in mind, that it was quite rare for black people to be granted this right.

The Election of 1828 was a victory for ordinary, common men and _______________ over the "rich and well-born." A. politicians B. craftsmen C. farmers D. military officers
Answer:
C. Farmers
Explanation:
The Election of 1828 was a victory for ordinary, common men and FARMERS over the "rich and well-born."
The above statement is correct because President Andrew Jackson won the 1828 election on the back of his common background. The voters saw him as the representative of ordinary, common men and farmers, but not that of the planters, merchants, bankers, and lawyers - the rich and well-born people.
The ordinary, common men and farmers believed that Andrew Jackson is the right person to lead them.

How
many
domes are there on the cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore?
Answer:
One of the most significant architectural achievements of the entire Renaissance was undoubtedly the construction, by Filippo Brunelleschi, of the dome over the Florence Cathedral. This work, begun in the summer 1420, was completed (except for the lantern) in 1436.
From the architectural viewpoint, the construction of the Dome of Santa Maria del Fiore represented the event that marked the beginning of the Renaissance, that is, the rediscovery of building models from the classical age and the contemporary changes in the organisation of construction sites, with separation of the roles of designer and builder, a system still in use today. It was the new figure of the designer, exemplified by Brunelleschi, that conferred on architecture the status of an artistic-scientific discipline, from this time on fully entitled to claim its place in the cultural system.
The dome was built without employing centring (a wooden or iron structure) to support the masonry. To achieve this, overcoming the scepticism of his fellow citizens, Brunelleschi devised some extraordinary solutions to lighten the imposing structure and to efficiently organise a worksite capable of fulfilling the requirements of the various stages of construction and guaranteeing the stability of the planes on which the bricks were laid, marked by progressive inclination from the base to the oculus in the dome. To build the dome, Brunelleschi employed innovative machines that he designed himself. The organisation of the worksite and the availability of machines that could move enormous weights and lift them to considerable heights played a decisive role in the construction of the dome. Brunelleschi left neither drawings nor verbal descriptions of the various machines he designed and utilised. However, their exceptionally innovative nature attracted the attention of the greatest engineers of the 15th century (Taccola, Francesco di Giorgio, Bonaccorso Ghiberti, and Giuliano da Sangallo), whose eloquent testimony has survived. Even Leonardo da Vinci drew in his notebooks, with extreme precision, the most important machines used by Brunelleschi to build the dome.
It was only in 1471, with the positioning of the lantern, for which the machines designed by Brunelleschi were used, that the dome could be considered finished. In the spring of 1601 the lantern was struck by lightening that damaged its structure, but was promptly restored.
The structure of the dome is truly imposing. The impost, rising to a height of 35.50 meters above the tambour, is about 54 meters above ground level. The distance between the two opposite edges of the octagonal base is around 35 meters. The height of the lantern that tops it, including the copper sphere, is a little over 22 meters. The inner vaulting cell of the dome has a curve whose radius is 4/5 the diameter of the base, while the outer dome has an inclination whose radius is 3/4 of the diameter. The weight of the dome is estimated as 37,000 tons. It has been calculated that over four million bricks were used in its construction. It is the biggest dome ever built without using centring to support the masonry
Around 1475 Paolo Dal Pozzo Toscanelli constructed a gnomon in the dome, the highest one ever built up to then, which showed the moment when the sun passed through the summer solstice. Toward the middle of the 18th century, the gnomon was restored by Leonardo Ximenes, who utilised it to conduct a number of astronomical and physical observations.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, you did not attach the options for this question. Without options, we can come up with different words that fit the idea of the statement.
So trying to help, we can answer the following.
The ideas of the third parties are often incorporated into the platforms and ideals of the two major parties.
In United States politics, the dominance of the bipartisan political system has dominated the history of America.
Third parties are important in the political system because they propose new ideas and advocate reform.
The United States has a bipartition political system dominated by the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. When a third political party has been part of one election, it gives the US citizens another option to choose from. Third parties had played an important role in breaking up the dominance of these two major parties. They propose new ideas and advocate reform. They share a different point of view or refreshing ideas on how to resolve issues. However, third parties also draw votes away from Republicans and Democrats, helping people to have a new perspective of the US affairs and conditions.
