Enlightenment thinkers promoted the idea of the rights of citizens and the people's authority to create--and to change--their own governments. The works of Enlightenment philosophers such as John Locke, Baron de Montesquieu, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau were read by leaders of the revolution movements in America. The American Revolution sought to put those Enlightenment ideas into practice in creating a government based on liberty and justice for all.
As an example of one Enlightenment philosopher's political thoughts that influenced the American revolution, let's look at John Locke. According to Locke's view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed. This was a change from the previous ideas of "divine right monarchy" -- that a king ruled because God appointed him to be the ruler. Locke repudiated the views of divine right monarchy in his <em>First Treatise on Civil Government.</em> In his<em> Second Treatise on Civil Government</em>, Locke argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting their own life, liberty, and property.
The American founding fathers read Locke (as well as other Enlightenment writers like Montesquieu and Rousseau). The American Revolution (1775-1783) was inspired by these ideas.

Answer: 0.04 m/s
Explanation:
Velocity is calculated as displacement divided by time and its unit is meter per second.
Displacement = 240cm = 240/100 = 2.4m
Time = 60 seconds
Velocity = Displacement / Time
= 2.4 / 60
= 0.04 m/s

The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options or further references attached we can say the following.
The factors that contributed to the spread of antislavery sentiment in the North beyond committed abolitionists were the inspirational ideas that spread from the Second Great Awakening that invited people to have elevated morals and ethical principles and following the example of Jesus of Nazareth.
That is how northern people who lived in Massachusetts and New York spread abolitionists ideas to other parts of the North.
One example of these people's actions was the Underground Railroad.
People in the North opposed slavery and before and during the Civil War found ways to help slaves. The Underground Railroad was a group of Northerners that helped African Americans to escape the South and offered shelter. The Quakers were among those groups that offered help to slaves that wanted to escape from southern plantations.
