Social Studies

Shalnov [3]3 years ago

Answer:

There are two types of judicial proceedings in the federal courts that use juries.

Criminal trial: An individual is accused of committing a crime that is considered against society as a whole. Twelve people, and alternates, make up a criminal jury. A unanimous decision must be reached before a defendant is found “guilty.” The government must prove the crime was committed “beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Guilty pleas and plea negotiations reduce the need for juries in criminal cases.

Civil trial: Litigants seek remedies for private wrongs that don’t necessarily have a broader social impact. At least six people make up a civil jury. The jury must come to a unanimous decision unless specified otherwise. The standard of proof is a “preponderance of the evidence,” or “more true than not.”

Settlement negotiations reduce the need for juries in civil cases.

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.
