A 1913 California law forced Japanese Americans to : Sell their land
<u>Question 1:</u>
Henry Ford worked at a sawmill before moving to Detroit in 1891, where he was hired as an engineer for the Edison Illuminating Company. He was promoted to chief engineer only two years later. When not working at the company, Ford spent time working on a gasoline-powered horseless carriage (the automobile) in the shed behind his home. His "quadricycle" was completed in 1896.
Ford sold his prototype, and after receiving backing from several investors, he formed the Detroit Automobile Company (later the Henry Ford Company) in 1899. He left the company in 1902. The company became the Cadillac Motor Car Company and Ford established the new Ford Motor Company.
A month after this new company was established, the first Ford cars were assembled in Detroit. Model T made its debut in October 1908. As a result of the high demand, Ford put into practice techniques of mass production such as a moving assembly line and standarized parts. This allowed production to be faster and cars to be cheaper. It also allowed Ford to raise the wages of his workers.
<u>Question 2:</u>
Ford's production started in Detroit, and the success of the automobile industry caused an enormous population rise in the city. In 1927, Ford moved his production to a massive industrial complex built along the banks of the River Rouge in Dearborn, Michigan. To this day, the city of Detroit is strongly associated in people's minds with the automobile industry.
The Japanese truly believed that America was going to attack them, so out of paranoia, they decided to attack first. Pearl Harbor had the airrafts and ships that would be used in war, so it was a perfect target for them because it would give them more time to prepare themselves against America. Unfortunetly for Japan, America was able to mass produce its aircrafts and ships and managed to quickly replace all the damaged vehicles.
I hope this helps.
Answer:
- Many Farmers sold their Land and Farming equipment ( B )
- Many Farmers borrowed money against the profits of future crops ( D )
Explanation:
These farming practices were very bad practices that lead to economic downturns because it resulted mostly to drastic reduction of agricultural produce and availability of food in the open market which might lead to importation of food that would have been produced locally and add to the country's GDP.
Farmers selling off their Land and Farming equipment is not a good farming practice because it means that the farmer is no longer into farming leading to decrease in potential agricultural produce in the market.
Farmers borrowing money against the profits of his future crops is a very bad farming practice because the profits were supposed to be used to invest into the farm and not to service loans.
