Answer is:

a) watermelon being run over by a steamroller is a shear stress.

b) a person diving into the deep end of a swimming pool is a confining pressure.

C) playing a game of tug- of-war is a tensional stress.

d) Kneading bread dough is a compressional stress

e) slipping on banana peel is shear stress.

The explanation:

a) when  the shear stress is that force which affect on the body by slippage on a plane of the body , and here, the ground is the plane and the watermelon is pushed by slippage on the ground by steamroller .

b) when the confining pressure is the pressure which caused by the effect of the weight overburden the body, and here the water in the pool is the weight that is overburden the body of the diving person which cause the confining pressure.

c) when the tensional stress is the force which is resulted from the pull body a part which perpendicular to the surface of the body, and here, playing a game of tug-of-war is represent a force of pull the rope apart so it is a tensional stress.

d) when the compressional stress is like squeezing surface of a body when the force is perpendicular to the body surface. and here Kneading bread dough is represent squeezing the bread dough  so, it  represent a compressional stress.

e) when  the shear stress is that force which affect on the body by slippage on a plane of the body , and here, the slipping on a banana peel is a shear stress as the slipping force on the banana represents the shear stress .

docker41 [41]

Answer:T

he answer is C

Let's go through the options:

a. declare sovereignty in a document, such as the Declaration of Independence

-this is a good start, but it's not enough, a number of states have declared sovereignty but they were not recognized internationally. 

b. pass a law requiring other states to recognize its sovereignty

- a state can't pass a law about what the others should do: this is a false answer

c. gain recognition of sovereignty from the United Nations

-this is the best way of achieving sovereignty in a way that is recognized internationally - this is the best answer.

d. merge with another state and form a new state

-this is not the right answer - this state would not be sovereign then.
