Why did Szilard and other scientists oppose using the atomic bomb?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Szilard, adamant that the atomic bomb would have disastrous geopolitical consequences, crafted a petition arguing that atomic attacks on Japan "could not be justified, at least not until the terms which will be imposed after the war on Japan were made public in detail and Japan were given an opportunity to surrender." That demand was in fact more moderate than Szilard’s original proposition, which pleaded for the use of the bomb to be avoided at all costs

What major event contributed to the mass number of Africans in the Caribbean?



(Thats the teacher that gave me the assignment >:-\

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The Caribbean is composed of people from all over the world including those taken there by force and those who migrated freely.

Caribs lived in the Caribbean for thousands of years. There were many communities of people we now know as Caribs, including Galibi and various Arawakan speakers such as the Kalinago. Beginning in the 16th century, many were killed or expelled from the islands by European forces. They asserted their identity by fighting for land and political rights. One example is Brigands’ War, also known as the Second Carib War (1794 -1798).

Merchants and plantation owners moved into the region. Indentured servants, political dissidents and others from the British Isles provided the first plantation labour.

The biggest migration to the Caribbean was a forced migration of enslaved people from Africa through the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Many of the merchants who settled in the Caribbean during the 17th and 18th centuries were involved in slave trading. The early Caribbean was also a centre for piracy.

In the late 18th century, Britain moved soldiers and sailors to the Caribbean to defend against invasion by competing European powers and guard against anti-slavery revolutions and protests. Former enslaved people came from Canada to join the West India Regiment.

Indentured labour from India and China started in the 19th century. They migrated to the Caribbean to work on plantations in places such as Jamaica, Trinidad and British Guiana. So-called ‘Liberated Africans’ were also indentured during this time.

Many people also migrated from the Caribbean and people convicted of crimes were sometimes transported to Australia and England. Also, Bermuda had a convict establishment for British (including Irish) convicts.

F social mobility
Geconomic gain

Answers

Answer:

G). Economic gain.

Explanation:

The given excerpt taken from 'The First Charter of Virginia' reveals that 'economic gain' is the key component that influenced the English settlers to annex the land of North America and colonize them. This claim is substantiated through the descriptions like 'shall have all the Lands, woods,...Fishings' which will promote the trade and commerce of the Britishers globally. They thought that after acquiring the lands, the entire resources would belong to them and they can use them according to their own needs and purposes. Thus, option G is the correct answer.

Why did business owners use child workers in their factories? US History 11

Answers

Answer:

The Industrial Revolution saw the rise of factories in need of workers. Children were ideal employees because they could be paid less, were often of smaller stature so could attend to more minute tasks and were less likely to organize and strike against their pitiable working conditions.

children were hired during the Industrial Revolution because they naturally smaller and could fit into tighter spaces. This was especially important in the new mechanized factories of the late 18th century. ... Therefore, factory owners employed children because it helped in the production of goods.
