Answer:

I can conclde the planet must be closer to the star than Earth is to the Sun.

Explanation:

The gravitational effect of the star forces the planets into an orbit around it, but gravity works both ways and the gravitational effect of the planet will be pulling on the star too.

Since the star moves back and forth in the sky once every four months we can deduce that this planets influences is greater that that of The Earth and the Sun. Therefore, the logical conclusion is that this planet has a shorter orbit, in other words it is closer to the Sun.

What were Japanese Internment (Prison) camps REALLY like?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The Camps were a difficult place to live because the Japanese Americans who lived there had to endure bad food, inadequate medical care, and poorly equipped schools.

People who lived in the camps had to share bathroom and laundry facilities, and hot water was usually limited. The camps were surrounded by barbed wire and guards who were supposed to shoot those who tried to escape.

  To summarize, the camps were not overly harsh or terrible, but it was unfair to force Japanese Americans to live in them when they had done nothing wrong, and when the living conditions at the camp were inadequate.

Please give me brainliest if I helped!

Why does the lottery single out a family first and then a victim?
Alinara [238K]
<span>The lottery, despite what people might think, is not that much of a benefit as people think. In fact, people who have won the lottery have stated that the money did not make them any happier, but it created more problems, instead. Maybe the lottery has a better chance of providing a truly better life to an entire family than if they only target single people to pay out the entire amount to.</span>
