The correct answer is Archimedes

Archimedes was born in Syracuse, present-day Italy, in 287 BC. He was a Greek mathematician, engineer, physicist, inventor and astronomer, the son of an astronomer, who probably introduced him to mathematics. Archimedes studied in Alexandria, where he had Canon de Samos as his master, and thus came into contact with Erastotenes. Archimedes dedicated his method to this last one, in which he exposed his brilliant application of mechanics to geometry, in this way, he "imagined" unknown areas and volumes to determine their value. He soon returned to Siracusa, where he devoted himself entirely to scientific work.

Archimedes' various warlike inventions are famous, which are believed to have helped Syracuse to resist Roman siege for three years before falling into the hands of Marcelo's troops.

20 electrons

25 neutrons

Explanation:

Data

Calcium, atomic number 20

Atomic number indicates the number of protons in an element, so, if Calcium's atomic number is 20, it means that it has 20 protons.

In a neutral element, the number of protons = number of electrons, then

Calcium has 20 electrons.

Only the number of neutrons could change.

A government is laissez-faire when it does not interfere with business affairs and does not regulate its actions

Further Explanation

Laissez-faire is an economic theory that resists any form of government interference in business affairs. It uses the principle that the less involvement of the government in the economy the more successful it can become, leading to the success of society as a whole. Free market capitalism is based on this Laissez-faire philosophy.

The following are the common types of legislation Laissez-faire economists oppose:

• minimum wages

• duties

• trade restrictions

• corporate taxes

Effects of Laissez-faire in the society

While Laissez-faire was implemented in the late 18th and early 19th century it was also noticed that it resulted in large gaps between the wealthy and the poor, unsafe working conditions for the workers and starvation.

Government Intervention

In the beginning of the 20th century significant government controls and regulations were implemented with the goal of protecting workers from unsafe working conditions and to protect consumers from unfair trading practices.

Criticism of Laissez-Faire

Critics of Laissez-faire targeted the moral ambiguities that is attached to capitalism as a system, to which, it does not inherently protect the lowest in the society. As an argument, advocates believe that when individuals pursue their interest first, the benefits will follow. However, for the detractors, Laissez-fair only leads to economic imbalances and poverty.
