grigory [225]

The answer is closer.

Parallax is used to determine how far a star is from earth by measuring its parallactic angle. If star a has a larger parallactic angle than star b, star a is closer than star b.

<h3>What is parallax?</h3>

When there is a difference in the direction of a celestial object as seen by an observer from two points which are widely separated, then this distance is termed as parallax.

This parallax measurement is used to find the distance of the body from Earth which is called Geocentric parallax and from the Sun which is called Heliocentric Parallax.

The Law of Superposition places the youngest rock on top of older rock, except when what two rock formations are present?
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The Law of Superposition places the youngest rock on top of older rock, except when faults and igneous rock are present (option 1).

Explanation:

The law of superposition of strata -proposed by Nicolás Steno based on the observations of Avicenna- states that the rock strata observed in the earth's crust are the product of the deposit of rocks progressively over time, leaving the newest rocks in the surface and the oldest in lower strata.

In successive studies and observations made by Steno, this scientist could appreciate the existence of some exceptions to his principle of superposition:

  • <em>The presence of geological faults could cause an alteration in the arrangement of the layers, different from the order they should have. </em>
  • <em>Magma activity is a factor that would lead to the deposit of igneous rocks between the layers of already formed rocks.</em>

The Law of Superposition is, in geology, the basis on which the discipline of sedimentary stratigraphy is based.

Please describe Hammurabi’s Empire (The Babylonian Empire). A good answer should tell me how he was able to conquer the region,
Arisa [49]

Explanation:  Hammurabi ruled Mesopotamia from 1792 to 1750 BC, as a member of the Babylonian dynasty. He began as ruler of the city-state of Babylon, as one of the centers of power of Mesopotamia. In addition to the Babylonians, there were others who struggled to overpower Mesopotamia, and the main reason was the fertile plain, which meant a fortune from abundant agriculture. Babylonian culture gained dominance over other Mesopotamian cultures under Hammurabi. Until Hammurabi, the Babylonian rule area was mostly confined to the area around the city of Babylon, that is, several other smaller towns in the vicinity conquered by his father.

It should be noted that there has already been a great deal of conflict between the surrounding cultures in the fight for prevalence over the plain. In one such struggle, Elam completely destroyed Eshnunna and  tried to make a war between Babylon and Larsa in order to gain an advantage over them as well. However, Hammurabi and Larsa made an alliance against Elam, though more to the credit of Hammurabi, Elam was defeated and Hammurabi gained control of the lower plain of Mesopotamia.

Due to the concentration of troops in the south, riots broke out in the north, so Hammurabi headed north to calm the riots, expanding and establishing his power north as well. After the conquered northern part of the Eshnunna empire, Hammurabi continued his war with Assyria. It was a protracted war, involving many smaller allies on both sides. Hammurabi prevailed in this warfare and outburst, forcing the king of Assyria Ishma Dagan I to surrender shortly before his death. The new king of Assyria recognized the tribute to Hammurabi.

Thus Hammurabi in a few years conquered and subjugated Mesopotamia under Babylonian rule. After the conquest, historians claim that he ruled righteously, and that there was peace after his conquest. The fact is that he subordinated all subjects to the Babylonian religion, but his legal code, one of the oldest written laws in the history of civilization, was also famous, which practically meant justice for all subjects. It may also be one of the factors of his successful rule after the conquest.

Yet, after his death, Babylon remembered him after his conquests, though not long after his death, but for a long time he remained remembered for his Hammurabi code. Even after the fall of Babylon, everyone remembered Hammurabi as a legislator. This code was written in about 1754 BC and consisted of 282 laws, which also regulated contractual obligations, binding salaries, compensation for certain damages, relationships to slaves, women, etc. It also contained a system of harsh punishments for offenders, but it was also one of the first laws to recognize the presumption of innocence until proven opposite, i.e. until all the evidence for and against was presented.
