Answer:      B. Performance

Explanation:  Erving Goffman was a sociologist who saw the study of society, especially the interaction of people in society, as a play that people perform daily in life as a stage. Some of his expressions are known in the daily interaction and behaviour of people when they are in public and when they are trying to make an impression on others. These are expressions he gave in describing what people, in Goffman's view, like to expect to be in public, or want to make an impression on the public or what happens to them.There are, for example, a "losing face" when someone is embarrassed in the public, or an overall "impression management" where each manages his actions and facial expressions to make certain impressions he wishes to give to others.

So apart from other terms, according to Goffman, people are socially interacting as in a stage where they use a variety of props for their daily "performance" in public. They also use costumes, tones of voice, masks, even films made on the subject, to prepare everyone for their desired role on stage, i.e in public, depending on impression they want to make. The ultimate goal of this performance is to present ourselves, but as we would like to, with a particular impression and the desired aspect of our personality that we somewhat idealise, emphasise and present with this performance for certain needs of everyday social struggle.

Crazy boy [7]

In the wars that the “founding fathers”, the main leaders of the colonists at that time, stood out.

It was these leaders who drafted, in 1776, the Declaration of Independence of the United States and, after the war, in 1787, composed the so-called Bill Of Rights, that is, the Bill of Rights, the Constitution of the United States of America, which prevails until today. For this reason, they were called "founding fathers", or "fouding fathers", as they are considered to be those who gave the United States a political-legal architecture, claiming its right to exist as an independent nation-state.

The main names among the “founding fathers” are: <u>John and Samuel Adams, George Washington (who became the first president), Thomas Jefferson, George Clymer, Benjamin Franklin, George Tylor and George Rea.</u>

If you stand on a bathroom scale in an elevator, just as the elevator starts to descend the reading on the scale.
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: The reading on the scale will decrease as the elevator descend.

According to Newton's second law of motion which explains that the rate of change of the momentum of a body is directly proportional to, and in the same direction as, the net force acting on it.

In essence as a body moves towards ground, it weighs less and even weighs more upon impact with the ground.

If peradventure, the whole system is in free fall, you, the elevator and the scale will weigh nothing at all.
