Answer: It would destroy the Earth's surface.

I remember reading this questions in What If? by Randall Munroe. Great book, I suggest you check it out. Anyway, the answer. The Earth is revolving as well as spinning on its axis at the same time. This  basically means that thee atmosphere is also spinning at the same speed. But due to the frame of reference, we don't notice anything. If the Earth suddenly stops spinning, then the atmosphere, going according to the first law of motion will still be spinning at the same speed. This would produce supersonic winds at such a scale that it will be compared to an atomic explosion. Anything not in a nuclear bunker will probably be ripped apart by the force of the wind.

Answer:

Answer:

D) by using military force.

Explanation:

Typically, people like Mussolini and Stalin gain popularity in trying times by promising a type of well-being to a group or nation of stricken people, in which they gain huge amounts of popularity at once. Typically they are then elected to some seat of power, in which, with popularity and most likely the military on their side, they would overthrow the current government. The next step taken is to suppress any opposition or even those who don't fully support the party. This can be given out in two ways, which is through force (especially opposition), or providing benefits to those who are in the party (to draw those who are not exactly supporting to support for the benefits).

With "popular" support, as well as military control, the overthrow is complete, and the group is established in power.
