Answer:
The correct answer is D. Europe established a balance of power following the Napoleonic Wars.
Explanation:
The Congress of Vienna took place between November 1814 and June 1815 in the backdrop of the disastrous Napoleonic wars that had left much of continental Europe in disarray.
After the defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte, delegates from the four great powers of Europe, Great Britain, France, Russia and Austria met in Vienna to discuss ways of limiting further conflict.
The idea was to create a balance of power in continental Europe that would ensure lasting peace.
It was largely seen as a success and helped to main some peace until World War I
Answer:
The 30-years war was not called a world war as it was mainly in Europe, very few colonies were involved, unlike the 7 years' war.
Albert Einstein
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
- Theory of Relativity
- Gravitational Waves
Recently, the theory of gravitational waves was proven
already, and this makes a very great advancement in science, and the study of
universe.
Einstein is ranked as the most influential person in the 20th
century in Time magazine. His studies
and contribution in science are widely known even to the modern scientists, and
serves as their inspiration in studying more.
The U.S. State of South Carolina and Columbia.
Answer:
1) Dam. Raises the water level of the river to create falling water. Also controls the flow of water. The reservoir that is formed is, in effect, stored energy.
2) Turbine. The force of falling water pushing against the turbine's blades causes the turbine to spin. A water turbine is much like a windmill, except the energy is provided by falling water instead of wind. The turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical energy.
3) Generator. Connected to the turbine by shafts and possibly gears so when the turbine spins it causes the generator to spin also. Converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electric energy. Generators in hydropower plants work just like the generators in other types of power plants.
4) Transmission lines. Conduct electricity from the hydropower plant to homes and business.
