A blacksmith ran a small forge in a tourist attraction depicting village life in the 1800s, and produced small metal trinkets fo

r sale as souvenirs. A tourist came into the forge and started ridiculing the blacksmith, telling him that he was foolish for practicing such an out-of-date trade when modern equipment could produce the same trinkets faster and far more cheaply. Although he maintained a calm demeanor, the blacksmith was enraged by the time the customer finished and headed back out the door. He picked up an anvil and hurled it in the general direction of the customer. The anvil fell harmlessly to the ground after traveling maybe a foot.If the blacksmith is charged with assault, which of the following statements would be most helpful for his defense?A. The blacksmith did not succeed in hitting the customer with the anvil, and he knew that it was impossible to do so.B. The blacksmith knew that it was impossible to hit the customer with the anvil.C. The customer did not see the blacksmith throw the anvil, and the blacksmith knew that it was impossible to hit the customer with the anvil.D. The customer did not see the blacksmith throw the anvil.

Answer:

C. The customer did not see the blacksmith throw the anvil, and the blacksmith knew that it was impossible to hit the customer with the anvil

Explanation:

The most helpful option for his defence would be that this customer did not see him through the anvil and the blacksmith knew that it was not possible to hit him with the object which is option c.

An assault can arise by either trying to commit a battery or buy intentionally committing one. If this blacksmith claims that he knew it was not possible to hit the man with the anvil, this would take out the fact that he intentionally tried to commit an assault. Also, since this customer did not see him throw it, there will also be no way any form of assault would have been created.

Answer: The Maya were native people of Mexico and Central America, while Aztec covered most of northern Mesoamerica between c. 1345 and 1521 CE, whereas Inca flourished in ancient Peru between c. 1400 and 1533 CE and extended across western South America. ... The Maya used two calendars. The Aztecs led a more brutal, warlike lifestyle, with frequent human sacrifices, whereas the Maya favoured scientific endeavours such as mapping the stars. The Inca were based much further south in the Andean region (home to modern-day Peru and Chile) and were accomplished builders.

HELP ASAP REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND
Rashid [163]
Well, I'm not sure if this will help, but I might be able to explain what it's asking. All it is asking is to research two generals in the revolutionary war, and to say how they preferred to attack the enemy. For example, some generals preferred to attack head on while others attacked secretly. Then, it asks for you to tell what their job was in the war. Were they a patriot or a red coat? Did they command part of the army in a major battle, or are perhaps more famous for providing help to troops before becoming a part of the army? If you need help on who to research, finding some pretty famous generals should work, as they will have the most information on them. Some that I found to be really interesting are Baron Von Steuben, Nathanael Greene, Charles Lee... that's just the patriots, and there's plenty more on both sides. I hope this helps!

Natasha2012 [34]

This initially neutral stimulus is called a <u>conditioned</u> stimulus.

A neutral stimulus on its own should produce no reaction, but if used together with an unconditioned stimulus (that causes either atraction or rejection), and after a series of repetitions, it will trigger the same reaction as the one generated by the unconditioned stimulus with which is paired.

This learning mechanism which involves an unconditioned stimulus, and a neutral one which becomes conditioned, is known as classical conditioning.

Answer: specific deterrence

Explanation:

What is specific deterrence ?

Specific deterrence refers to the punishment given to someone who has committed a particular offence in order to ensure that they don't commit it again in the future.

The purpose of this policy is to discourage the person from thinking about committing an act against the law again.

It ranges from fines to spending a particular sentence in jail.

Trevor has spent a jail sentence of ten years and because of this experience he came back with a changed mind .

He is now determined to never break the law again because he doesn't want to receive the punishment again which will put him the same terrible experience all over again.

Specific deterrence has taken its effect on him.
