Homer's negligence caused an automobile accident with Bart. As a result of the collision, Bart's car collides with a telephone p

ole, causing it to fall. The falling pole then takes out some electrical power lines. The resulting power outage leaves Patty without any light in her apartment. As she fumbles in the darkness, she trips over her cat, falls, and is injured. Patty sues Homer. In order to avoid liability, Homer's best defense is that:
a. there is no actual cause between the negligence and the injury.
b. there is no proximate cause between the breach of duty and the injury.
c. Bart's car was the one that collided with the telephone pole.
d. the electrical power lines should not have have fallen under the force of a car.

Answer:

B. there is no proximate cause between the breach of duty and the injury.

Explanation:

In law, proximate cause is a situation when the action of the defendant is directly causing the negative situation that happened to the other party.

From the case above, Homer could try to argue to the judge/juries that the reason why Patty tripped is because of her cat rather than his crash.

The judge and juries can either agree or disagree with homer depending on their personal outlook of the situation. But nevertheless, it's the best defense that Homer has.

9966 [12]

The correct answer would be, Rewards Power.

John leads a team of 10 salespersons. He informs the team members that the first member to achieve the year's target will be sent on an all expenses paid holiday to the Grand Canyon National Park. John is demonstrating the Reward Power.

Explanation:

When a manager presents some type of reward to his employees as a means to influence them to achieve some target or to act according to certain standards, this is called as the Rewards Power.

In this type of situation, the manager or supervisor tries to influence employees and motivates them to work harder towards their goals by promising them certain rewards.

So when John informs his team members that the employee who will complete the given task at the first place will be sent to an all paid expenses trip, he is actually influencing them with the reward power.
