Answer:
While slavery was the major issue separating the North and South, it was not slavery itself that sparked the conflict. The South wanted to secede from the Union, and the North refused. While President Abraham Lincoln personally opposed slavery, he recognized that it was legal under the U.S. Constitution at the time. He also recognized that few in the North were ready to go to war to free the slaves. For Lincoln and the northern majority, preservation of the Union was the foremost goal.
Answer:
Yes it has a slope which is undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line characterizes the direction of a line. To find the slope, you divide the difference of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of those same 2 points .
To achieve balance, the momentum on both sides must be
equal so that it cancels out. Momentum is simply the product of mass and
distance, therefore:
50 pounds * 6 ft = 100 pounds * X
X = 3 ft
Hence B must be placed 3 ft from the pivot.
