How did barometers advance science?
a. they allowed scientists to study objects in space. b.they allowed scientists to measure temperature. c.they allowed scientists to measure pressure. d.they allowed scientists to observe objects closely.

The correct answer is - C. They allowed scientists to measure pressure.

The barometer is a device that was constructed with the purpose of measuring pressure, to be more specific, air pressure. This device is mainly used by the climatologists and meteorologists, and it gave a different dimension and understanding of the natural processes occurring in our atmosphere for these scientific fields. This simple device actually contributed to the understanding of the movement of the air masses, or as we commonly say it, the wind.

C. They allowed scientists to measure pressure.

Explanation:

here are some events that to cause increased conflict between the north and south

1) mexican cession- gaining modern day california, utah, arizona, and new mexico from mexico. caused southern and northern politicians to fight over whether or not there would be slavery in these newly acquired territories.

2) uncle tom's cabin- this famous book described the cruelty of slavery in the south during the antebellum period, causing more northerners to support abolition and southerners to resent the book as they felt it unfairly depicted southern society.

3) kansas- nebraska act- disagreements over whether or not kansas and nebraska would be free or slave states caused issues between northern and southern politicians in congress.

4) bleeding kansas- this fighting took place in kansas after congress allowed this territory to vote on whether or not they would have slavery. citizens were killed and buildings were destroyed during this fighting.

this means that germany had to pay the allied countries. reparations are/is essentially payment for something that they have done wrong, so after ww1, germany was forced to pay reparations so they could replenish the allied countries resources' that they had lost during the war.
