Why was the 3rd amendment added to the constitution?
IgorC [24]

Answer and explanation:

The 3rd amendment prohibited the requirement of quartering soldiers of American citizens' homes. What does this mean? Well, back when America was powered by King George III, when a soldier wanted to, they could enter someone's home. Americans were required to housekeep the soldiers, give them food, shelter, etc. The people didn't like this, so when they declared independence, they made the Bill of Rights. And on the Bill of Rights, they made 10 amendments, and the 3rd one said that Americans no longer had to housekeep the soldiers. Hope this helps!

What important discovery was made by Edmond Halley and Alexis Clairaut, using Newton's ideas of mathematics and gravity? A. They
sasho [114]

The correct answer is option B.

Edmond Halley correctly predicted the return of the eponymous comet Halley after he realized several sightings of a comet were in fact the same comet.

By correctly understanding Sir Isaac Newton's law of gravity and also his ideas in mathematics, Halley was able to correctly predict that the comet that now bears his name would return periodically. He did this by discovering Halley's orbit in 1716 and thus being able to predict the year of its return.
