The correct answer to this open question is the following.
How do you think they built the tracks to be the right width apart from each other
It is true that Railroad tracks’ rails must be a precise distance from each other. If the distance between the rails is too narrow or too wide, the train will derail. That is why railroad designers had to be very precise.
Since the times of George Stephenson in Great Britain, the design and construction of the first trains moved by steam, rails were based on the width of the wagons.
When building the rails, the gauge was decided to be four feet eight and a half inches. That is how they built the first railroad from Liverpool to Manchester.
Years later, in the United States, saw the convenience to adopt that previous standard established by George Stephenson in the United Kingdom. That was the basis used by the two most important railroad companies in the United States: the Union Pacific and the Central when they designed and constructed the impressive Transcontinental Railroad that connected the East coast of the United States with the Pacific West.

sing four or more complete sentences, explain three ways human have modified and used land in South and Southeast Asia. Identify the positive and negative effects of these modifications.
Answer: Traditional subsistence agriculture has turned into industrial mono culture farming.

Among the positive effects in Thailand and China, because of their logistical, financial and educational support of poor farmers, the latter have been able to take advantage of the rubber boom and prosper, leaving poverty behind.

describe the motivation behind Britain and France's ultimate declaration of war on Germany?
Answer:
The motivation is that Britian and France got angry when they found out that Germany invaded Belgium which was the first ever battle and start of the First World War (Battle of Liege). Germany invaded Belgium because they wanted to invade France inspired by The Schlieffen Plan which means they charge at France at lightning speed while Russia gets ready for war since they're so big and clumpy and then also charge Russia at lightning speed. But that plan failed since Belgium was strong enough to hold to Germans back. Austria - Hungary got angry at Serbia since they might have assasinated Ferdinand so they declare war on each other. Germany attacks the other countries fearing they might get involved too since France, Russia, and Britian are allies with Serbia.

Out of all the towns found in the Harrapan Civilization, which was the ideal town planning?
Answer: The meaning of the word Mohenjo-Daro is 'Mound of the dead'. It is a well planned and organized town. It has two very important buildings; The great Bath and the Great Granary. The Great Bath was perhaps used for ritualistic purposes. Located at the center of the citadel, it is remarkable for beautiful brickwork. The Great Granary, which was perhaps the largest building of the Indus Valley Civilization suggests extreme centralization as the ruling authorities must have first brought the agricultural produce here and then redistributed it

Under the rule of Mao Ze Dong, China had changed its government to Communist ideology. The Soviet Union was a primary ally of China and heavily influence the entrance of Communism under the rule of Mao.
So on November 25, 1950, Mao decided to enter the Korean War supporting North Korea. The Chinese troops aggressively attacked troops from the United Nations and the United States. General Douglass never saw it coming but to his surprise, more than 250,000 soldiers had been sent to attack the troops at his command.
