Enrich fermi was a scientist and a physicist .He discovered nuclear fission and he led several tests releated to the use of nuclear power and his work was mostly on induced radioactivity by neutron bombardment and the discovery of transuranic elements or a nuclear reactor .His new find followed Marie Curies and Joliot’s discovery of artificial radioactivity .At age 14 he lost his brother from a minor throat surgery accident.In order to escape the pain of losing his brother ,Fermi buried himself in books about physics that fascinated him and soon got him into college with an entrance exam essay that was judged worthy of a doctorates degree .So you could say that his own loss of his brother motivated him to start making discoveries of his own in physics and on experimenting with neutrons. Hope this helped !

ad-work [718]

Answer:

Antietam.

Explanation:

  • After winning the Second Battle of Bull Run over the Northern Army, Confederate General Robert E. Lee decided to invade the North and transfer the war from Confederate territory to Union territory.
  • He penetrated with 55,000 troops across the Potomac River into the territory of the northern state of Maryland.
  • To counter it, US President Lincoln sent the Army of the Potomac under the command of George B. McClellan.
  • The battle took place on September 17, 1862 near the creek of Antietam. It was one of the bloodiest battles in all of American history. Although he had a double army of about 87,000 troops, Northern General McClellan sent less than three-quarters of his troops to war.
  • In total, about 23,000 soldiers were killed or disappeared.
  • McClellan failed to destroy the Southern Army, but Lee had to end the invasion of the North and retreat to Virginia.
