What was unusual about the penny-farthing bicycle?

History

CaHeK987 [17]3 years ago
6 0
Penny farthings feature a large front wheel, above which the handle bars, seat and pedals are positioned, and a smaller rear wheel. The size of the front wheel allowed for travelling at higher speeds, due to the increased distance for each rotation of the pedals, and greater shock absorption.

3. How has presidential power evolved over the years, has the president gained or lost power and how did they gain or lose it? W
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The president's authority has changed throughout time. The president of the 17th century was quite different from the presidency of the 21st century. The Presidency became more powerful than the other departments of government because of the three leaders, George Washington, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson. While the executive branch has always had sway now, Congress held sway throughout the 1800s. It is true that the president's influence has diminished, but the balance of power has remained stable up until now. As a result, today's government branches are all pushing for equal influence.
