Answer:

Sped up the cold war through technological contributions

Explanation:

The cold war was war between the United States and the Soviet Union which was against communism.

The United States got worried when the Soviet Union launched their satellite Sputnik. The worried came in the realization that the Soviet Union could launch a nuclear weapon from space targeting the United States. The United States needed to catch up to the Soviet Union space efforts by building and launching their own satellite into space. The United States however got a shock when the Soviet Union launch Sputnik 2.

The Soviet Union was always ahead in the space race until the first man on the moon which the United States achieved.

The space race prompted both countries to exceed each other by building satellites and missiles. This accelerated the progress of the cold war and the process of technology development. The cold war was affected by the technological contributions made by both sides.

With which statement woud enlightenment thinker john locke have agreed? A. People have the right to overthrow a government that
butalik [34]

<em>The correct answer is A. People have the right to overthrow a government that violates their rights .</em>

John Locke developed the concept of natural law and stated in his book "Two treatises of government", that under natural law, all people have the right to life, liberty and heritage and contributed to the concept of Social Contract addressed by several enlightened thinkers, that under the "Social Contract" people could instigate a revolution against the government when it acted against the interests of the citizens, to replace the government with one that served the interests of the citizens. Locke considered that the citizen has the right to the revolution and that in certain circumstances, he has the obligation to exercise it to safeguard the people against tyranny.

While Locke believed it correct that the government was represented by a constitutional monarchy, ie a monarch supported by a parliament, he was against all absolute monarchy and conceptually did not give the monarch the place to care for a people without sanity but rather gave the State the priority of protecting the citizen against injustice. He said that injustices are what alter the natural state of tolerance and good judgment of citizens sometimes leading him to act with justice by their own hand and it is the State that must guarantee the right to life, property and freedom, to maintain the social order and give rise to the prosperity and happiness of individuals.

Locke was the son of Puritan Protestants and at the time of the Glorious Revolution he was living in the Netherlands and certainly supported this revolution.
