There is typically more than one way to communicate an idea with regard to sentence structure, and how the sentence is structured contributes to its tone. For instance, short/brief sentences can contribute to a sense of hurry or haste. For instance let’s look at the following sentences:

I was late. I quickly ate. I brushed my teeth. I forgot to comb my hair. Then, I was out the door.

Can you feel the tone of urgency communicated by the short sentences?

Likewise, long and drawn out sentences can provide the tone of sluggishness and/or unwillingness. This is something to keep in mind when constructing your own sentences—as you are writing always be aware of your sentence structure and the tone it may communicating.

Hi!

The answer to your question is that short sentences get to the point and can seem more honest.

Explanation:

Writers have to be careful with the tone they use for their work as the tone will affect how readers perceive the piece.

By using short, direct sentences, writers look to sound more direct, straight forward, and therefore, honest.

What were two effects of the Louisiana purchase on the untied states?

aliina [53]

The first impact is that it doubled the size of the country. Our borders went from the Atlantic Ocean to the Rocky Mountains, north to Canada, and south to the boundary with Spanish Florida. It helped to secure the port of New Orleans and the use of the Mississippi river for us. When Spain cut off our right to deposit goods at New Orleans and limited our use of the Mississippi River, this presented a serious challenge for us. Western farmers needed to store goods at New Orleans and ship products on the Mississippi River. It is what prompted our original offer to France, once France got control of this region from Spain.

The Louisiana Purchase also made it clear to other countries that we would try to find ways to peacefully solve our problems. Instead of fighting Spain, and then France, over the use of the Mississippi River and the port of New Orleans, we tried to find a peaceful solution to resolve an issue. It also showed our own people, especially the farmers who lived in the west, that our government did care about them also and would work to meet their needs. This helped western farmers remain loyal to our country.

zheka24 [161]

If your asking about what interactions mean in Science then this is the definition --> a mutual or reciprocal action; interacting.

If your asking for the physics definition for interactions mean then this is the definition --> transfer of energy between elementary particles or between an elementary particle and a field or between fields; mediated by gauge bosons.

Or, if your asking for what interactions mean in general then this is the definition --> 1 : mutually or reciprocally active. 2 : involving the actions or input of a user especially : of, relating to, or being a two-way electronic communication system (such as a telephone, cable television, or a computer) that involves a user's orders (as for information or merchandise) or responses (as to a poll).

Hope this helps you, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend and a wonderful Thanksgiving bye! Your welcome.
