In 1609, two years after English settlers established the colony of Jamestown in Virginia, the Dutch East India Company hired English sailor Henry Hudson to find a northeast passage to India. After unsuccessfully searching for a route above Norway, Hudson turned his ship west and sailed across the Atlantic. Hudson hoped to discover a "northwest passage," that would allow a ship to cross the entirety of the North American continent and gain access to the Pacific Ocean, and from there, India. After arriving off the coast of Cape Cod, Hudson eventually sailed into the mouth of a large river, today called the Hudson River. Making his way as far as present-day Albany before the river became too shallow for his ship to continue north, Hudson returned to Europe and claimed the entire Hudson River Valley for his Dutch employers.

2. How did population distribution change as a result of the Industrial Revolution?
almond37 [142]

Answer:  A. Cities grew rapidly as people moved from rural areas to work in industry.

Futher detail:

The Industrial Revolution had its beginning in Great Britain, and eventually spread from there.  Once the United States became involved, the size and resources of the country allowed the US to become a bigger industrial power than the nations of Europe.

Industrialization also led to the phenomenon of <u>urbanization</u> -- the movement of people away from the rural countryside and into cities.   That also led to other issues, like sanitation and crime problems in cities.  So sanitation and health measures were enacted, and the first police forces were formed.  For instance, in 1838, Boston established the first fully organized police force with full-time on-duty officers, paid as public servants.  By the 1880s, all major US cities had established regular police forces.

How did cardinal bellarmine respond to the following arguments from galileo ? a. the bible passages about the sun still should n
dexar [7]
<span>St. Bellarmine responded to "a" by indicating that Galileo has no authority to determine which passages should be taken literally and which should be taken non-literally. Science can make no pronouncements, only the magisterial authority of the Church. Last, he responded to "b" in a similar manner- it is not for science to determine what is a matter of salvation; the issue has less to do with his convictions then the authority to determine what is necessary for salvation.</span>
