Brut [27]4 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

En geografía, un huso horario es cada una de las 24 áreas en que se divide la Tierra, por un meridiano y en las que rige por convención el mismo horario.1​ Se llaman así porque el área demarcada tiene la forma de un huso de hilar, centrado en el meridiano de una longitud que es un múltiplo de 15°. Anteriormente, se usaba el meridiano tiempo solar verdadero, con lo que la diferencia entre una ciudad y otra era de unas pocas horas, en el caso de que las ciudades comparadas no se encontraran sobre un mismo meridiano. El empleo de los husos horarios corrigió el problema parcialmente, cuando los relojes de una región suenan al mismo tiempo solar medio.

Todos los husos horarios se definen en relación con el denominado tiempo universal coordinado (UTC), huso horario centrado sobre el meridiano de Greenwich (también conocido como meridiano cero), que recibe ese nombre por pasar por el Real Observatorio de Greenwich, en el Gran Londres.[cita requerida]

Puesto que la Tierra gira de oeste a este, al pasar de un huso horario a otro en dirección este, hay que sumar una hora. Por el contrario, al pasar de este a oeste hay que restar una hora. El meridiano de 180°, conocido como línea internacional de cambio de fecha, marca el cambio de día

The issue of free silver (to increase the amount of currency in circulation) was championed in the election of 1896 by _________
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

William Jenings Bryan

Explanation:

By the time of the 1896 election, the american public was divided between people who supported the gold standard, and those who supported the adoption of silver as back-up for the US Dollar. This position was known as bimetalism. William Jenings Bryan was part of the latter group.

He supported silver because it would increase the money supply and he thought that more money in the economy would increase the standard of living. In a way, this is a form of expansionary monetary policy that aims at invigorating the economy by increasing the amount of curreny people have on their hands.

tekilochka [14]

As I need to let you answer this, I am going to provide answers on both sides.

Democratic Party:

A member of the Democratic party generally believes in a strong Central government that provides a robust social safety net for the people. In the modern age, Democrats are more hesitant to use military might overseas and would rather spend the money investing at home. Democrats are broadly in favor of a woman's control over her own body and support gay marriage and the legalization of marijuana. Support welcoming immigration policies.

Republicans:

A member of the Republican party in the modern era believes in a weaker central government with more power to the states. They broadly believe in the power of the market to provide and are interested in the private sector helping citizens to succeed. They believe in a strong military and in using it. Republicans are split along religious lines as to abortion and gay marriage but are united in their opposition of weaker immigration policies.

Based on the situation, it's not to be considered as a good law. It is because it is unlikely and there is a small chance of a person who performs a CPR to another person who needs it to determine whether the person has AIDS or infectious because the situation is something to be acted quickly because the patient may die.
