Is there a Greek god or goddess of gravity?

Answer:

Explanation:

I'm certain not. The Greeks were far too earthy to conceive of a force that does not act through a rigid media.

I know that sentence is a mouthful: what it means is that if you took a pole and placed one end of it below the center of gravity and pushed, the Greens could understand something like that.

They would know that the pole is connected to you and you are supplying the force. If you push hard enough, the rock moves.

It was not until Newton was sitting under the apple tree that gravity took a real big step in disclosing what it was -- about 2000 years after the last Ancient Greek was buried. Gravity was something far different to Newton than it was to the Greeks (and Romans).

Sorry. No God or Goddess for that property. The Romans did no better.  You might want to search out what the Bible has to say. It seems to me they knew it wasn't a tortoise holding up the earth which is sort of related to any discussion on gravity.

Answer:

There wasnt a god of gravity since the Greeks did not know about gravity. Atlas kind of acted like gravity by holding the earth up. He wasnt a god but a Titan.

Answer:

The New England colonies were flat along the rocky coastline, which made good harbors. It became hilly and mountainous further inland. The land was covered in dense forests. The soil was rocky, which made farming difficult.

Middle colonies geography ranged from coastal plains along the coastline, piedmont (rolling hills) in the middle, and mountains farther inland.

The southern colonies were made up of mostly coastal plains and piedmont areas. The soil was good for farming and the climate was warm, including hot summers and mild winters. The growing season here was longer than any other region. The southern colonies' economy was based on agriculture (farming).

Who was the main aggressor during the cold war and why?<br><br> I will award you with the brainiest
Dimas [21]
"Aggressor" is a fairly political and loose term. I believe they were both proportionally bad in the situation. However since you are likely looking for an argument for one side, I suppose I would have to go with the USSR. They started the Berlin blockade which both violated treaties and nearly led to a large war. At the time in Russia, if anyone disagreed with their secular agenda or government they would be exiled. I think it's important though to again point out that contrary to popular belief, both sides got into unwanted wars and did aggressive things during the time and neither should be dubbed the only "aggressor"

Why have wildlife experts only estimated the number of endangered species in the world?
sdas [7]
The problem starts already earlier:wildlife experts can only estimate the number of  species in the world generally!
 
This is the case because there are simply too many species, and it takes time to documents them; because some areas (ocean bottom for example) are very hard to access and because sometimes it's hard to know whether we're talking about a new species or a variation within the same species.



so if we even don't know how many species there are, it's even harder to know how many are endangered.
