I do not agree with Mike, because the Earth radiates hot gas into space, and as hot air rises, it cools due to the difference in air pressure.

Answer: I agree with Mike

Explanation:  Gas also get cooler as its pressure drops, which it does as it rises up where there is less air pressing down on it. So when warm air rises, it cools off. That's pretty significant here. But there's an even more important force at work: Earth radiates heat (infrared light) into space.

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

French

Explanation:

The French Congo began at Brazzaville on 10 September 1880 as a protectorate over the Bateke people along the north bank of the Congo River.The plan to develop the colony was to grant massive concessions to some thirty French companies. These were granted huge land on the promise they would be developed.

French claims by Pierre de Brazza were quickly acted on by the French military which took control of what is now the Republic of the Congo in 1881 and Guinea in 1884. Italy became part of the Triple Alliance, an event which upset Bismarck's carefully laid plans and led Germany to join the European invasion of Africa.

What do you think is the most important invention of the 20th Century and why?
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

the internet

Explanation:

The computer rendered the typewriter obsolete and made writing in long-hand a thing of the past, but it took the internet to truly turn the computer into the monster it is today. While the airplane shrank our planet to the point that one could fly from New York to London in six hours, the internet made it possible to be there in a few seconds. It allows truth to make it into and out of repressive countries, it foments revolutions, and spreads lies at the speed of light. It also gives anyone the ability to buy and sell almost anything imaginable, find and torment old school mates, watch the latest you-tube videos, and even find their perfect life partner, all for a few bucks a month. Oh, and you can also get useful information off it if you don’t mind scrolling through 15,000 hits to find out just how long snails really live. Where would we be without it?
