Answers

Answer:

ver explicación

Explanation:

La potencia se define como la tasa de tiempo de realización del trabajo.

Potencia = trabajo realizado / tiempo empleado

En este caso, trabajo realizado por el niño y la máquina = mgh

m = masa del bidy

h = altura

g = aceleración debida a la gravedad

Ancho = 18 × 10 × 2,5 = 450 J

Potencia desarrollada por el niño = 450 J / 11 segundos = 41 W

Potencia desarrollada por la máquina = 450 J / 2 segundos = 225 W

what article and amendment of the constitution is related to the powers of STATE governments

Answers

Answer:

THE CONSTITUTION (SEVENTH AMENDMENT) ACT, 1956

Statement of Objects and Reasons appended to the Constitution Ninth Amendment) Bill, 1956 (Bill No. 29 of 1956) which was enacted as THE CONSTITUTION (Seventh Amendment) Act, 1956

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

In order to implement the scheme of States reorganisation, it is necessary to make numerous amendments in the Constitution with effect from the 1st October, 1956. This bill seeks to make these amendments and also some other amendments to certain provisions of the Constitution relating to the High Courts and High Court Judges, the executive power of the Union and the States, and a few entries in the legislative lists. The reasons for making the amendments are indicated below:-

Clause 2.-The reorganisation scheme involves not only the establishment of new States and alterations in the area and boundaries of the existing States, but also the abolition of the three categories of States (Part A, Part B and Part C States) and the classification of certain areas as Union territories. Article 1 has to be suitably amended for this purpose and the First Schedule completely revised.

Clause 3.-The amendments proposed in article 80 are formal and consequential. The territorial changes and the formation of new states and Union territories as proposed in Part II of the States Reorganisation Bill, 1956, involve a complete revision of the Fourth Schdule to the Constitution by which the seats in the Council of States are allocated to the existing States. The present allocation is made on the basis of the population of each State as ascertained at the census of 1941 and the number of seats allotted to each Part A and Part B State is according to the formula, one seat per million for the first five millions and one seat for every additional two millions or part thereof exceeding one million. It is proposed to revise the allocation of seats on the basis of the latest census figures, but according to the same formula as before.

Clause 4.-The abolition of Part C States as such and the establishment of Union territories make extensive amendment of articles 81 and 82 inevitable. The provision in article 81(1)(b) that "the States shall be divided, grouped or formed into territorial constituencies" will no longer be appropriate, since after reorganisation each of the States will be large enough to be divided into a number of constituencies and will not permit of being grouped together with other States for this purpose or being "formed" into a single territorial constituency. Clause (2) of article 81 and article 82 will require to be combined and revised in order to make suitable provision for Union territories. Instead of amending the articles piecemeal, it is proposed to revise and simplify them. Incidentally, it is proposed in clause (1)(b) of the revised article 81 to fix a maximum for the total number of representatives that may be assigned to the Union territories by Parliament.

Clause 5.-The proposed revision of the proviso to article 131 is consequential on the disappearance of Part B States as such. The two parts of the existing proviso have been combined.

Clause 6.-Article 153 provides that there shall be a Governor for each State. Since it may be desirable in certain circumstances to appoint a Governor for two or more States, it is proposed to add a proviso to this article to remove any possible technical bar to such an appointment.

Clause 7.-Sub-clause (a) of clause (1) of article 168 provides for bi-cameral legislatures in certain States. It is proposed that, among the reorganised States, Punjab and Mysore should continue to have such a legislature, and that the enlarged Madhya Pradesh should also be provided with one. Since the constitution of a Legislative Council for Madhya Pradesh will necessarily take time, it is proposed to bring the relevant amendment of article 168(1)(a) into force from a future date by means of a public notification of the President.

Clause 8.-This seeks to revise article 170 mainly with a view to bringing it into line with articles 81 and 82 as revised by clause 4.

Lee la siguiente frase: “La libertad no consiste en tener un buen amo, sino en no tenerlo” (Cicerón). Reflexiona sobre la importancia de los derechos de libertad.

a) ¿Qué personas a lo largo de la historia no tuvieron libertad para comunicar sus ideas?

b) ¿Cuáles fueron las dificultades que tuvieron?

Answers

La respuesta correcta a esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

“La libertad no consiste en tener un buen amo, sino en no tenerlo” (Cicerón).

La importancia de los derechos de libertad es que cada persona tiene el derecho de ejercer su voluntad y hacer lo que considere bueno para él, siempre y cuando también respete la libertad de los demás.

Dice por ahí otro dicho que "Mi libertad termina donde comienza la tuya." Y esta idea también hay que tenerla presente.

Como afirmaba el gran abogado, politólogo y estadista Romano Marco Tulio Cicerón, la libertad implica no tener dueños, sino ser capaces de decidir por nosotros mismos bajo un marco legislativo.

Algunas personas a lo largo de la historia no tuvieron libertad para comunicar sus ideas. Esas personas lucharon por expresar sus ideas peo muchas veces fueron atacadas y sometidas.

Como ejemplo, está el caso de Nelson Mandela, líder afro que fue encarcelado muchos años por defender los derechos de otros africanos de color, en Sudáfrica.

Mandela se opuso al Apartheid, que fue la segregación y discriminación de personas de color en Sudáfrica. Fue encarcelado mucho tiempo, pero siguió en pie de lucha en la cárcel. Cuando al fin recuperó su libertad, salió y se convirtió en el primero Presidente de color, de Sudáfrica.

what was the flaw in sending 1500 soldiers to Cuba?

Answers

Answer:

The error was in sending 1500 soldiers to Cuba.

A brigade of 1,500 CIA-trained troops assaulted the beach in Cuba's Bay of Pigs. Kennedy planned a secret expedition to overthrow Fidel Castro in order to stem the spread of communism across the globe. But the subsequent five days saw one of the worst military disasters in U.S. history.

Under the codename Operation Zapata, President Kennedy was given the go-ahead just days after his inauguration. The main force would head into Matanzas, establishing a defensive position. United Front representatives would be sent from South Florida to create a provisional administration. The plan's success relied on Cubans' ties to the invaders.

Following these orders, some 20,000 soldiers advanced towards the shore, thus Castro's air force continued to control the skies. However, six Cuban aircraft were left intact after the initial strike. During the operation, plans for a tactical maneuver backfired, and the Cuban air force was not wiped out. The Bay of Pigs incident had a lasting impact on the Kennedy administration. The administration began Operation Mongoose, a plot to disrupt and destabilize the Cuban government and economy, including the prospect of assassinating Fidel Castro.
