When I think of persuasive I think of someone convincing another person to do something.
Explanation:
You can write a good rebuttal by addressing the other side's argument and then write your counterclaim.
Ex:
Thesis: Banning SeaLand is necessary because of its unethical treatment of animals.
Many SeaLand proponents believe that the theme park benefits animals because it provides millions of dollars to wildlife foundations. However, what they don’t tell the public is that these wildlife foundations are actually organizations that funnel the money back into SeaLand—so actually, SeaLand appears to be donating charity, but it is actually simply donating to itself.
Answer:
1200 W
Explanation:
Since we know the formula (power = energy/time), then just plug in the values:
Energy = 2,400 J
Time = 2s
2,400/2 = 1,200
Answer: 1,200 W
It has been frequently and rightly remarked that the Crito is unique among
Plato’s dialogues insofar as its primary concern is what Socrates ought to do.

Most interpreters assume that Socrates ought to do what seems best to his reason (Cr 46b3-6); thus, most interpretations defend the rationality of obedience
or disobedience. On my account, it is not at all obvious that Socrates ought to
do what seems best to his reason. On my account, Socrates does not do what
seems best to his reason because he does not reason about whether he should
obey the laws; he simply obeys the laws. Doubtless, this claim seems counterintuitive to many; after all, does not Socrates articulate and defend his reasons
for remaining in prison from 49c to 54c? Is it not the cogency of Socrates’ reasons
for remaining in prison that have been so thoroughly debated in the scholarship summarized below? My answer to both of these questions is ‘no.’ Perhaps
counter-intuitively I claim that the reasons for remaining in prison, from Crito
49c to54c, are not Socrates’ reasons; they are the arguments of the speaking laws
of Athens
