Currently, the earth's rate of rotation around its own axis is 24 hours: this determines the length of a day and if the rotation would increase, the day would be shorter.

Did you know that the rate actually decreases with time? the day now is about 1 millisecond longer now than in 1900!

Match the drawback of each historical source to its correct historical record type.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Photograph: bird's eye view of a site; interview: personal analysis and biased; tax records: limited accessibility; biography: unreliability of human memory.

Explanation:

There are generally always some drawbacks when considering different sources of historical information and a good researcher has to take these factors into account. Photographs are limited because they give you very little context. Interviews can be limiting because you get a personal view from just one individual. Tax records are likely protected due to privacy concerns and statutes. Biography can have drawbacks as well because the person may embellish past events or overemphasize the significance or attribute meaning in ways that are not entirely truthful or objective.

How are edge cities formed and how are they beneficial/detrimental?​
sergey [27]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Edge cities are usually formed because land in the suburbs or on the outskirts of the city is cheaper (bid-rent curve), so they can make more a profit.

These businesses are normally connected the the CBD (central business district) so transportation to and from that area is still possible.

People that live in the suburbs or are visiting the main city have easy access to the edge city as you might not have to travel as far to these cities as the CBD (distance decay).

Edge cities can be a good thing because they allow for new businesses to thrive and they can increase economic activity and competition due to new construction, cheaper prices, new companies moving in, etc.

However, they can also be a detriment to the CBD because they might allow companies to relocate due to the cheaper land prices, they might take in the typical customers of the CBD companies, ultimately leading to the vacancy of the CBDs, which could be dangerous and create high-crime, unsanitary, or contaminated areas. It can also take attention away from significant or historical monuments and locations in the CBD.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
