B. Access to raw materials.

Further Explanation-

The United States wanted to consolidate itself as a state and establish its footprint on the international forefront as a power to be reckoned with. The age of imperialism had already set in Europe, and Britain, France, Germany, Spain, etc. were extending their territory and political influence beyond the continent. The Spanish American war gave an opportunity to the United States to have experience in trained combat, and capture territories, and now she began to think of expanding her territorial and political influence beyond the Pacific. The main purpose of colonization was twofold, to gain access to the vast raw materials and resources that were available in Asian and African countries, and to find a market where they could sell the finished products at a profit.

Imperialism is a concept by which a nation acquires territory beyond its regions in another continent, with the sole purpose of exploitation of its natural resources. The United States was now recognized as a military power, as her newly acquired territories were integrated within her Governance. This was the beginning of the journey of the United States on her journey to become a superpower in the twentieth century and place herself at the centre of international politics. The United States helped to liberate Cuba from Spanish control, thereby already extending her influence in international politics. However, the war was not limited to helping Cuba against the Spanish, and emerged in an imperialist war for taking over the Spanish empire in the Caribbean, so that American interests would be protected in the Pacific Ocean, and as far as mainland Asia, especially China.

Find the angle between 8:25 O'clock​
snow_tiger [21]

Considering the rules of angles and degrees, the angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the time is 8:25 am is "<u>102° 30' degrees</u>."

<h3>Calculation illustration</h3>
  • Since 8:25, the hour hand will have moved past the 8

  • The hour hand moves 0.5 a degree per minute.

  • Therefore, in 25 minutes, it will be 12.5 degrees past the 8.

  • Given that the minute hand moves from the 5 to the 8, it rotates through 90 degrees.

Therefore, the total angle between the minute hand and the hour hand is equal to 90+12.5 =102.5

=<u>></u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>02° 30' degrees.</u>

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is "<u>102° 30' degrees</u>."
