English
1 answer:
kari74 [83]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

For example, Thoreau uses the metaphor "this chopping sea of civilized life" to suggest the perils and difficulties of modern living. As you read, identify other metaphors that Thoreau uses to convey his ideas.Thoreau's opinion of life is that it should be as unencumbered as it possibly can be. People should have only what they need because extraneous possessions only weigh one down and turn one into a slave to things.

Hope it helps!

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Furthermore, most handwashing education takes place among younger children,  typically kindergarteners or 1st graders. If a poster was hung up in an elementary school with the goal of educating the younger kids, it may fail because many younger children do not know how to read yet. Hope this helps!

BOY = 20 units of force = F1

GIRL = 10 units of force = F2

The net force acting on the body is the sum of the forces acting in the body:

Fnet = F1 + F2

Since they are acting in opposite direction:

Fnet = F1 - F2
