What did the bataan death march foreshadow about the war in the pacific?

1 answer:

5 0

The Bataan Death March foreshadowed that Japan either had no intentions of abiding by international law set in the Geneva Convention. It was either that or they merely ignored or belittled it.

The Bataan Death March was one of the earliest record of the most severe treatment of Prisoner's of War in the world. During WWII, thousands of Filipino and American troops who surrendered to the Japanese forces in Bataan were made to walk some 65 miles to the POW camp. Whether sick, injured or dying, no medical treatment was given and they all had to march or would be killed.

Why can't theories become laws?

shtirl [24]

Since each serves a different purpose, theories cannot become laws. Explaining how or why a natural phenomenon occurs is what the set of ideas called theories do. On the other hand, mathematical relationships that describes what happens are what is done by laws.

Let me show an example that illustrates the points. Describing what happens in the natural world are done by the mathematical formulas called the Gas Laws. In this example, it would show that by using the Gas Laws, I will be able to predict with great accuracy the pressure if I double the temperature of a sealed gas. This idea is a law since the relationship is mathematical and it tells us what will happen.

<span>On the other hand, in order to explain why gases behave like the way they do, we must use the kinetic molecular theory.</span>

A 2 kg object with 100 J potential energy (with respect to the ground) is released from rest from the top of a building, the spe

ioda

velocity of object just before hitting the ground = 10 m/s

10 m/sExplanation:

here's the solution : -

=》mechanical energy is always constant, when the object is at the top of the building , the object has potential energy but no kinetic energy,

so, at the top of the building the mechanical energy = potential energy = 100 J

but at when it is dropped from the building, the whole potential energy get converted into kinetic energy, just before reaching the bottom .

so, mechanical energy in the object just before hitting the ground = kinetic energy

( potential energy = 0 )

So, kinetic energy = 100 J

now, we know

$kinetic \: energy = \frac{1}{2} \times m {v}^{2}$

=》

$100 = \frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times {v}^{2}$

( since, mass = 2 kg )

=》

$100 = {v}^{2}$

=》

$v = \sqrt{100}$

=》

$v = 10$

so, velocity of object just before hitting the ground = 10 m/s

The apparent backward movement of a planet is called

hoa [83]

A). Kepler's first law of planetary motion ... "Each planet moves
      in an elliptical orbit, with the Sun at one focus of the ellipse."

B). Heliocentric motion ... motion in an orbit around the Sun.

C). Eccentricity ... what makes an ellipse different from a circle.
   The eccentricity of a circle is zero.
   The eccentricity of the Earth's orbit is very small.
   The eccentricity of a comet's orbit is big.

D). Retrograde motion ... the apparent, temporary, backward
   motion of a planet on its path through the stars.

A 1.25cm diameter cylinder is subjected to a load of 2500kg.Calculate the stress on the bar in mega pascal

Mama L [17]

Answer:200 Mpa

Explanation:

Given that diameter of cylinder = d = 1-25cm = 1.25 100 =0.0125m

Load or mass = m = Stress 0 = ? 2500kg

Solution: Formula N = F A

Area of Cross-section of cylinder = A=πr2 A = π(d/2) 2

= π(d2/4)

=(3.14)(0.0125)2/4

A = 1.226x10-4

F ・ mg = = F A 24500 2500 x 9.8 = 24500 N

1-226x10-4

1998 36 867.9

= 200 x 106 Pa

= 200 MPa
