Answer:

Westward expansion meant that the US acquired ever increasing amounts of land, and needed people, farmers, to settle there so it could maintained without a huge military presence. This led to massive immigration in the second half of the 19th century, as mostly Europeans came here seeking to finally have their own land.

It also added vast resources to the United States, both in terms of potential agricultural production and things like gold, silver and timber.

It stimulated the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad, and added new states to the country.

It further aggravated the divide between north and south, and accelerated the onset of the Civil War.

QUESTION 5 The elevation at which a parcel of air cools to its dew point temperature is called the a lifting condensation level

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

A. condensation level

Explanation:

What usually happens when a parcel of air cools more slowly the air in motion, leads to the formation of clouds as moisture accumulation takes place. Thus the vertical ascent of air reduces its capacity to store or hold water and hence condensation occurs at dew point.

The rising parcel of air cools and descents down the original dew point and results in net condensation. Thus the lifted parcel of air reaches o its 100% concerning Adiabatic cooling.

Plato found not only answers but also a method for humans everywhere to work out answers without needing to rely on memorizing t

Ghella [55]

Answer: Plato is an author of "dialogues" (The Republic, Laws etc etc.) where the main character is Socrates. Socrates is a philosopher who uses a special kind of dialogue (so-called dialectic dialogue or dialectic method) which leads him to the truth. In other words he follows LOGOS who leads him to uncovering the Truth.

Explanation: Greek word ALETHEIA means "disclosure" and "truth" at the same time. It means that truth is always hidden. Much older Greek philosopher (pre-Socratic) Heraclitus had a dictum: "Truth likes to hide"....it seems that Socrates/Plato followed this thesis.

How does the type of rock affect the mass of rocks after weathering?

Brrunno [24]

<span> sediment formed from the weathering and erosion of rock. Over time, sediment accumulates in oceans, lakes, and valleys, eventually building up in layers and weighing down the material underneath. This weight presses the sediment particles together, compacting them. Water passing through the spaces in between the particles helps to cement them together even more. This process of compacting and cementing sediment forms sedimentary rock</span>

How have rivers affected life in Europe?

trasher [3.6K]

Europe is not a typically dry place (unlike for exampe Mesopotamia) so it does not need rivers for irrigation.

Instead, rivers are needed more for transport - they have served as a means of communication and for the exchange of goods.

For example, Danube allowed a big-scale trade between the cities lying on it: Vienna, Budapest and Bratislava.
