The correct answer is C. Full moon, waxing gibbous, waning gibbous.

Explanation

The moon is the natural satellite of the planet Earth that reflects the light of the sun towards the earth. According to its position when orbiting around it, this is known as lunar phases.

Once the moon is in the middle between the sun and the earth, the Moon begins a lunar cycle, this is the first phase and is known as the new moon, in it, you cannot see the moon from the Earth.

The second phase of the lunar cycle is called the crescent moon, in this phase, the moon has moved a little to the left, so it is possible to see a small portion of it from the Earth.

The third phase is the waxing quarter, it is when the right half of the moon is seen because the moon is on one side of the Earth and only half of its face reflects the sunlight.

the fourth phase is crescent gibbous, in this one you can see about 75% of the moon because it has moved following its orbit of the Earth and is 37.5% of the way. The fifth phase is the new moon, in this phase, the Moon has already traveled half its way, in this phase the Earth is in the middle between the moon and the sun so the sunlight is completely reflected on the moon that from the ground it looks complete.

From the full moon onward, the waning gibbous, waning quarter, and waning moon phases come. In these phases, the movement of the moon causes that the moon's surface reflected on the Earth to hide. In the gibbous, you can see the left 75% of the moon (where the Earth is still in the middle of the moon and the sun), in the last quarter the left 50% of the moon (here the moon is on one side of the Earth) and in the waning moon 25% of the moon (where the moon is in the middle of the Earth and the sun).

According to the above, the correct answer is C. Full moon, waxing gibbous, waning gibbous

Therefore, the correct answer is C. Full moon, waxing gibbous, waning gibbous.

Answer:

By the end of this section, you will be able to:

Explain how the inventions of the late nineteenth century contributed directly to industrial growth in America

Identify the contributions of Andrew Carnegie, John Rockefeller, and J. P. Morgan to the new industrial order emerging in the late nineteenth century

Describe the visions, philosophies, and business methods of the leaders of the new industrial order

As discussed previously, new processes in steel refining, along with inventions in the fields of communications and electricity, transformed the business landscape of the nineteenth century. The exploitation of these new technologies provided opportunities for tremendous growth, and business entrepreneurs with financial backing and the right mix of business acumen and ambition could make their fortunes. Some of these new millionaires were known in their day as robber barons, a negative term that connoted the belief that they exploited workers and bent laws to succeed. Regardless of how they were perceived, these businessmen and the companies they created revolutionized American industry.

RAILROADS AND ROBBER BARONS

Earlier in the nineteenth century, the first transcontinental railroad and subsequent spur lines paved the way for rapid and explosive railway growth, as well as stimulated growth in the iron, wood, coal, and other related industries. The railroad industry quickly became the nation’s first “big business.” A powerful, inexpensive, and consistent form of transportation, railroads accelerated the development of virtually every other industry in the country. By 1890, railroad lines covered nearly every corner of the United States, bringing raw materials to industrial factories and finished goods to consumer markets. The amount of track grew from 35,000 miles at the end of the Civil War to over 200,000 miles by the close of the century. Inventions such as car couplers, air brakes, and Pullman passenger cars allowed the volume of both freight and people to increase steadily. From 1877 to 1890, both the amount of goods and the number of passengers traveling the rails tripled.

Financing for all of this growth came through a combination of private capital and government loans and grants. Federal and state loans of cash and land grants totaled $150 million and 185 million acres of public land, respectively. Railroads also listed their stocks and bonds on the New York Stock Exchange to attract investors from both within the United States and Europe. Individual investors consolidated their power as railroads merged and companies grew in size and power. These individuals became some of the wealthiest Americans the country had ever known. Midwest farmers, angry at large railroad owners for their exploitative business practices, came to refer to them as “robber barons,” as their business dealings were frequently shady and exploitative. Among their highly questionable tactics was the practice of differential shipping rates, in which larger business enterprises received discounted rates to transport their goods, as opposed to local producers and farmers whose higher rates essentially subsidized the discounts.

Jay Gould was perhaps the first prominent railroad magnate to be tarred with the “robber baron” brush. He bought older, smaller, rundown railroads, offered minimal improvements, and then capitalized on factory owners’ desires to ship their goods on this increasingly popular and more cost-efficient form of transportation. His work with the Erie Railroad was notorious among other investors, as he drove the company to near ruin in a failed attempt to attract foreign investors during a takeover attempt. His model worked better in the American West, where the railroads were still widely scattered across the country, forcing farmers and businesses to pay whatever prices Gould demanded in order to use his trains. In addition to owning the Union Pacific Railroad that helped to construct the original transcontinental railroad line, Gould came to control over ten thousand miles of track across the United States, accounting for 15 percent of all railroad transportation. When he died in 1892, Gould had a personal worth of over $100 million, although he was a deeply unpopular figure.
