Explanation:

Imperialism (generally in the form of an empire) —which is based on ideas of superiority and applying domination practices— is the set of practices that imply the extension of authority and control of one State or people over another. It can also be a political doctrine that justifies the domination of one people or State over others; usually through different types of colonization (settlement, economic exploitation, strategic military presence) or cultural subordination (acculturation). The American sociologist Lewis Samuel Feuer identified two main subtypes of imperialism: the first is "regressive imperialism" identified with pure conquest, unequivocal exploitation, reductions of unwanted peoples, and the settlement of desired peoples in those territories. The second type identified by Feuer is "progressive imperialism" which is based on a cosmopolitan vision of humanity, which promotes the expansion of civilization to supposedly backward societies to raise the standards of life and culture in the conquered territories, and the assignment of conquered people to assimilate into imperial society. Although the terms "imperialism" and "colonialism" are closely related, they are not synonymous.

Imperialism appeared throughout the world, and it spread throughout many territories, thus making this political practice more dominant.

The main axis of imperialism is always an authoritarian figure who decides above others and who is the one with the most power. Nowadays, with democracy, this imperial structure is practically not taken as a means of government in most of the countries of the world. world

Two cities are located at the same latitude (40˚). City A is in the Southern Hemisphere and City B is in the Northern Hemisphere
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

City B will have the highest annual range of temperature

Explanation:

City B will have a higher annual temperature than city A. <u>It is because the northern hemisphere is mainly covered with landmasses but the southern hemisphere is mostly covered by the water body</u>. So there is <u>more absorption of heat on the ground surface and the landmass area</u>. The oceans when heated it reflects some heat energy back into the atmosphere, and some of it is transferred to the land area by the sea breeze.

These events ultimately lead to an increase in the heat amount in the northern hemisphere.

valentinak56 [21]

All the options are correct.

If we look at the formula of prismoidal, we can see that it contains, three areas = area of faces at top and bottom and area of midway section

Thus it can be used to calculate the a) calculate surface area for cylindrical rings And b) estimate the surface area of edged non-prismoidal solids.  

In the volume formula of prismoidal, the factor (depth/6) is multiplied by the three areas as mentioned above, this gives the volume of faces at top and bottom and midway section. Thus option C and D are also correct.
