how each of these "w"?  im guessing it means work. and three weapons from then that are "new"? are:

Rifles. All nations used more than one type of firearm during the First World War. The rifles most commonly used by the major combatants were, among the Allies, the Lee-Enfield .303 (Britain and Commonwealth), Lebel and Berthier 8mm (France), Mannlicher–Carcano M1891, 6.5mm (Italy), Mosin–Nagant M1891 7.62 (Russia), and Springfield 1903 .30–06 (USA). The Central Powers employed Steyr–Mannlicher M95 (Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria), Mauser M98G 7.92mm (Germany), and Mauser M1877 7.65mm (Turkey). The American Springfield used a bolt-action design that so closely copied Mauser’s M1989 that the US Government had to pay a licensing fee to Mauser, a practice that continued until America entered the war.

Machine guns. Most machine guns of World War 1 were based on Hiram Maxim’s 1884 design. They had a sustained fire of 450–600 rounds per minute, allowing defenders to cut down attacking waves of enemy troops like a scythe cutting wheat. There was some speculation that the machine gun would completely replace the rifle. Contrary to popular belief, machine guns were not the most lethal weapon of the Great War. That dubious distinction goes to the artillery.

Flamethrowers. Reports of infantry using some sort of flame-throwing device can be found as far back as ancient China. During America’s Civil War some Southern newspapers claimed Abraham Lincoln had observed a test of such a weapon. But the first recorded use of hand-held flamethrowers in combat was on February 26, 1915, when the Germans deployed the weapon at Malancourt, near Verdun. Tanks carried on a man’s back used nitrogen pressure to spray fuel oil, which was ignited as it left the muzzle of a small, hand-directed pipe. Over the course of the war, Germany utilized 3,000 Flammenwerfer troops; over 650 flamethrower attacks were made. The British and French both developed flame-throwing weapons but did not make such extensive use of them.

there are many more, but here are 3 i found from a trustworthy source!

Which of the following can explain the upward slope of the short-run aggregate supply curve? a. nominal wages are slow to adjust
Goryan [66]

Answer: A - nominal wages are slow to adjust to changing economic conditions 

Explanation:

In the short run, the costs of many of the factors used in the production process are fixed.  For example labours wage is fixed for a number of years because of labour contracts. Also the raw materials used in the production process have long term agreements that fix their prices.

As a result of factors of production been fixed in the short run, when general price level rises and the cost of production remains constant, profit also rises.

Firms take advantage of this rise in price and increase production and the quantity of aggregate supply increases. This is why the short run aggregate supply curve is upward sloping.

The Lodge borrowed $2,000,000 for five years at an annual interest rate of 9% from the Merchant Bank, which required a $100,000
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

option (b) 9.5%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Loan Amount = $2,000,000

Annual interest rate = 9%

Required compensating balance = $100,000

Now,

Effective interest rate(EIR)

= (loan × Annual interest on loan) ÷ (Loan - Required compensating balance)

= ($2,000,000 × 9% ) ÷ ( $2,000,000 - $100,000 )

= ($2,000,000 × 0.09 ) ÷ ( $1,900,000 )

= 0.0947 ≈ 0.095

or

= 0.095 × 100%

= 9.5%

Hence,

the answer is option (b) 9.5%
