Answer:

The Wright brothers  developed the idea of the Airplane in the bicycle shop when Wilbur squeezed an empty bicycle tube box flat and noticed that the flattened box is the same shape as a two-winged glider.

Explanation:

In "The wright Brothers: Air pioneers" by David white, Wilbur and Oville fascination about flight began when their father gave them a flying toy as presnt. They were interested in mechanical things and read about how machines work.

The idea for the aircraft was born in the bicycle shop. They used a bicycle chain as propeller on their plane. They also made large kites. And with persitence, They built a better glider which had a rudder to steer with and were able to fly more than 600 feet.

They also made an engine that would be able to power one of their gliders.

schepotkina [342]

Your question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Anne Bradstreet was a Puritan who lived during Colonial America. Her poems reflected elements of her personal life. In this poem, her house has burned and she has lost all of her possessions. Read the last two stanzas (lines 43-54). How do these lines reflect aspects of her Puritan beliefs?

A) She relies on her own work ethic to build her another house.

B) She is so distraught that she wishes she had died in the fire.

C) She knows that her permanent home is waiting for her in heaven.

D) She prays for an architect from town to come build her a new home.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter C) She knows that her permanent home is waiting for her in heaven.

Explanation:

In the last two stanzas of her poem "Verses upon the Burning of our House, July 10th, 1666", author Anne Bradstreet calls God the mighty Architect. She does not seem to repine over the house she has lost to the fire. Quite the contrary, she is faithful to the belief that her permanent home is the spiritual one waiting for her in heaven. That is a reflection of her Puritan beliefs. This world is nothing but a passageway for the next and most important one. She does not need to suffer over material losses because what truly matters is the spirit. As she says in the last line of the poem, "My hope and treasure lies above."

Which 3 navigation features are missing in a Reports Only user’s view?
netineya [11]

Answer:

<u>- Navigation panel</u>

<u>- Search box</u>

<u>- Quick Create (+) icon</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Yes, when a user changes his or her view to a Report only view when using QuickBooks online they only see a report list page, without having such features as; Navigation panel, Search box or Quick Create (+) icon.

This is the case because permission is only granted to see the reports but <em>without</em> the ability to edit them.
