How did the launch of sputnik 1 affect american perceptions of the soviet union?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:  a. it suggested that the soviet union might have the capability to launch missiles at American cities.

Context: The Sputnik satellite was sent into orbit by the USSR on October 4, 1957.  The Soviets announced its mission as a scientific one, to study the solar system.  In the Cold War atmosphere, of course, Americans were wary of what other motives the USSR might have had.  The Soviets launched Sputnik 2 in November, 1957, with a dog on board.  The USA scrambled to get its own satellite program operational, launching the first US satellite, Explorer, on January 1, 1958.

List three factors that caused Africa to become a growing source of slaves for the slave trade
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
1. Africans were easier to spot, color denoted their bondage status, there was nowhere to run once they were taken.

2. Africans were exposed to those who had them in bondage for quite some time, meaning they had developed immunities to many of the trifling diseases their captors carried. So they were viewed as healthier.

3. Some Africans willingly sold their enemies (who were already in slavery/ prisoners of war) in exchange for products like guns, grain, and fabrics.
