Answer:

Although there is no consensus about the exact span of time that corresponds to the American Enlightenment, it is safe to say that it occurred during the eighteenth century among thinkers in British North America and the early United States and was inspired by the ideas of the British and French Enlightenments.  Based on the metaphor of bringing light to the Dark Age, the Age of the Enlightenment  shifted allegiances away from absolute authority, whether religious or political, to more skeptical and optimistic attitudes about human nature, religion and politics.  In the American context, thinkers such as Thomas Paine, James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin invented and adopted revolutionary ideas about scientific rationality, religious toleration and experimental political organization—ideas that would have far-reaching effects on the development of the fledgling nation.  Some coupled science and religion in the notion of deism; others asserted the natural rights of man in the anti-authoritarian doctrine of liberalism; and still others touted the importance of cultivating virtue, enlightened leadership and community in early forms of republican thinking. At least six ideas came to punctuate American Enlightenment thinking: deism, liberalism, republicanism, conservatism, toleration and scientific progress. Many of these were shared with European Enlightenment thinkers, but in some instances took a uniquely American form.

Why were most of the metals used in antiquity class (b) ( soft , in hsab terminology) metals?
gladu [14]
The earliest days, it had to be soft metals, because the shape was made only through blunt force. The answer to this question relates to what forging techniques and knowledge were available to the given population at that time and place. As the most basic technique of hammering would be at the primitive end of the spectrum and it would also be the most readily available aspect, without any real guidelines or ability to judge the force needed to carry out the task, other than experience. Over time, forging techniques applied by heat and cooling in order to better mold and sculpt the metals accordingly. As well, some of the allows, or mixture of metals, which would come later and result in much stronger materials, could only happen because of advanced heat and pressure forging.

How did Hoover plan to jump-start big business?
NeX [460]

The correct answer is D. by asking big corporations to hold wages steady at 1929 rates.

Hoover believed that it was needed to restore confidence of the business community because if businessmen reinvested their capital in the American economy, the nation would be able to recover. The 1929 crisis was born from a bubble, which would deflate the value of the dollar, but President Hoover attempted to keep the economy in place by maintaining rates.
