Answer:

Thomas Jefferson was the third president of the United States. - to inform

Hydro-Girl and the other superheroes battled the fierce sea monster. - to entertain

We should pass a new helmet law so bikers and pedestrians will be safer. - to persuade

Explanation:

The purpose of the first statement is to inform. It teaches us new information, new facts. Thanks to this statement, we now know that Thomas Jefferson was the third president of the United States.

The purpose of the second statement is to entertain. It tells about a superhero story, about how Hydro-Girl and other superheroes battled a monster to save people. It entertains just like a movie or comic about superheroes, such as Marvel or DC superheroes, would entertain us.

The purpose of the third statement is to persuade. It gives us reasons why we or someone else should do something. A new helmet law is needed so bikers and pedestrians will be safer. It's a suggestion that could save lives, and someone should do something about that.

Kalani and lael are students who have been comparing the total kinetic energy of an iceberg to an ice cube
Nitella [24]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Kalani and lael are students who have been comparing the total kinetic energy of an iceberg to an ice cube

Kalani’s Argument:  My claim is that an iceberg has more total kinetic energy (thermal energy) than an ice cube. This is because even though an iceberg is about the same temperature as an ice cube, it is also much larger, so it is made of a lot more molecules. For this reason, an iceberg will have more total kinetic energy (thermal energy) than an ice cube.

Lael's Argument: An iceberg has more total kinetic energy (thermal energy) than an ice cube because it is larger and made of more molecules. This matters because molecules move, and moving things have kinetic energy, so each molecule adds its kinetic energy to the total. Since the iceberg and the ice cube are around the same temperature, the fact that the iceberg has extra molecules means that it will have more total kinetic energy (thermal energy).

Which argument is more convincing?

Answer:

Kalani's argument is more convincing.

Explanation:

Lael says that the fact that Icebrg has extra molecules means that it has greater kinetic energy and this is not true, since the kinetic energy is greater in bodies and objects that have greater speed. In addition, speed increases as a body has greater mass. In this case, we can consider Kalani's argument as more convincing, since she related the kinetic energy to the mass of the iceberg.

how do you believe that language and communication differs for our children on the autism spectrum verses not?
nalin [4]
Autistic children sometimes can't understand as well or as fast as "normal" children, so they may need more explanation or a simpler form of communication.
