<span>The orbital period will be 5.196 earth years. The period of an orbit is proportional to the square root of the cube of the semi-major axis. The semi-major axis of earth is 1 AU (actually 1.000001018 AU, but for this problem 1 is close enough). The hypothetical planet will have a semi-major axis of 3 AU. So making the ratios with earth's year being 1, earth's semi-major axis being 1, the planet's year being y, and the planet's semi-major axis being 3, we get the following ratio. 1 / 1^(3/2) = y / 3^(3/2) Raise the denominators to the 3/2 powers. 1/1 = y/5.196 Multiply both sides by 5.196 5.196 = y So the orbit period will be 5.196 earth years.</span>

How is fear used to influence the viewer to buy victory
Arlecino [84]

<em><u>It shows spooky, shadowy hands trying to grab at a baby.</u></em>

<em><u>It shows a mother holding her baby close </u></em>

<em><u>It uses exclamatory text to imply the need for protection.</u></em>

<em><u>Dit boldly tells the viewer to buy victory bonds.</u></em>

Answer: Option 1, 2, 3 & 5

<u>Explanation:</u>

Victory bonds were the bonds which were like a loan given to the country of the government by the citizens for them to bear the expenditure of the war. These bonds could be redeemed by the citizens who have bought them only once the war gets over.

Even interest was paid on these bonds at the time of redemption of these bonds. These were meant for the victory of the country in a war thus named victory bonds. Pictures showing spooky hands to grab a baby or using exclamatory texts or directly telling the people to buy it were used to make people buy these.
