Alexis de Tocqueville believed that the United States benefitted from not having a history of what social system?

1 answer:

5 0

de Tocqueville, who wrote "Democracy in America," found that it was likely a help that the US did not have a history of monarchy or noble titles at its beginning. This, he felt, shaped the policies of the country more toward equality (as it was at the time) than toward benefiting the upper-classes.

Schach [20]

Answer:

Option c) are perpendicular to the electric field

Explanation:

Equipotential surfaces are perpendicular to the electric field. the electric field lines are projected outwards from the equipotential surface, i.e., the lines of the electric field are at 90 $^{\circ}$ to the equipotential surface.

Equipotential surface are those surfaces that have the same potential at any point on the surface. Thus the potential difference at any point on the surface is zero due to same potential.

Any charge particle on this surface will move in a perpendicular direction to the Coulombian force. No work is done by the force on a particle moving on an equipotential surface.

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

D. refraction

Explanation:

Refraction: Refraction is change in direction of light rays. Refraction occurs whenever light rays travels from a transparent medium to another transparent medium of different density. The abrupt change in direction at the surface of the surface of the two media is referred to as refraction.

Refraction occurs when light travels from air to glass or from air to liquid.

Laws Of Refraction:

(i) The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal, all at the point of incident lies in the same plane.

(ii) The ratio of the sine of the angle of incident to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant for a given pair of media.

Thus the right option is D. refraction
