Read the excerpt from "A Modest Proposal."Then as to the females, it would, I think, with humble submission, be a loss to the pu

blick, because they soon would become breeders themselves: And besides, it is not improbable that some scrupulous people might be apt to censure such a practice, (although indeed very unjustly) as a little bordering upon cruelty, which, I confess, hath always been with me the strongest objection against any project, how well soever intended.Which statement is an example of understatement in this excerpt?A) The criticism of the practice would be levied "very unjustly."B) Women becoming breeders would be a "loss to the publick."C) Some people "might be apt to" criticize the practice.D) Many women would "become breeders themselves."

Answer:

The correct answer is C. Some people "might be apt to" criticize the practice.

Explanation:

An understatement is a tool used by a speaker to make <u>a situation less important. </u>

In this case, the speaker shows how people were against <em>“females to become breeders”</em>. In a simpler way, they opposed the simple fact that women have children, coming to compare this act as an animal act.

Please see the description

Explanation:

Q1:

In order to find the total momentum of the system, we first consider the initial stage when the can is at rest. The angular momentum of the water and the can is 0.

When the can starts moving, the water in the can also starts escaping. Therefore we can say that the momentum of escaping water and momentum of moving can cancel each other out.

Hence the net  momentum or total momentum of the system is equal to 0.

Q4:

Examples of Newton's third law:

1. When a player kicks a football, it moves in the forward direction which is considered as the action. At the same time, the ball pushes back the toe which is considered as a reaction. Both forces are equal in magnitude put opposite in the direction.

2. The Earth's gravitational force is a huge example of Newtons third law. Consider a case of chandelier hanging from the roof. The Earth's gravitational force pulls the chandelier down which is an action. whereas, the same time, the tension in the string attached to roof also pulls the chandelier with equal amount of energy. This is the reaction force.

3. Consider another case of water shooting out of a fire hose. The water moves out of the hose in one direction, which is the action. The force with which the waters moves out pf the hose, pushes the hose in backward direction which is the reaction. In all the examples you can observes that both action and reaction forces are acting in opposite direction but are equal in magniture.
