History

Alexxx [7]3 years ago

Refraction is bending of waves, which occurs due to different depths of water below the wave. The wave crest in the deeper water is grabbed up so that the top of wave crest tends to become parallel to the shore. Wave refraction also occurs around the circular island. Friction with the sea bed, when the waves approach the shore, causes distortion and breaking of the wave front, as the wave velocity decreases due to friction.

Although Constantine originally controlled the Roman Empire in the West, he eventually won control of the East as well.
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: True

Explanation: Constantine was a Roman emperor who ruled from 306 to 337. Constantine got into to the throne as Emperor of Rome after the death of his father and due to the loyalty of his troops. At the beginning of his government, the empire was a tetrarchy (government of four rulers) until 313, in which Licinius (emperor of the east) and Constantine imposed themselves over the other emperors, establishing themselves as emperors of east and west respectively. In spite of the above, Constantine considered himself stronger than Licinius, so he decided to start a frontal attack of him that emerged victorious in 326, becoming the only emperor of the empire and taking all the eastern territories. There he founded a city with his name, Constantinople in present-day Istanbul (Turkey). Therefore, the correct answer is True.
