What characteristics of regionalism are in "A Call Loan" By O. Henry?

Answers

Answer 1

The bank examiner is the outsider from the East who does not understand or appreciate the cowboy banker's way of doing business. His willingness to dismiss local customs, regardless of their practicality and effectiveness, makes the people of Chaparosa seem simple but also more moral and compassionate by comparison.

Answer 2

The characteristics of regionalism that is demonstrated in "A Call Loan" here would be:

The bank examiner being an outsider failing to understand the local ways and his wish to dislocate local traditions.

What is Regionalism?

Regionalism is described as the tendency in which individual displays exceeding devotion towards his/her own community or region.

In this text authored by O. Henry, the examiner is an outsider, and his failure to adjust to the local traditions of the place demonstrates regionalism.

His failure to admire the cowboy also reflects this further and his wish to disrupt the traditions of the place also display this further.

Car A has twice the mass of car B, if the same force is used to push each car separately, how will their acceleration differ?

Answers

Answer: car b will have half of car a

Explanation:

Car b will have half of car a will their acceleration differ.

What is meant by mass?

A physical body's overall composition is measured by its mass. Inertia, or the body's resistance to acceleration change in velocity in the presence of a net force, is also measured by this. The mass of a thing also affects how strongly it attracts other bodies through gravity.

The best approach to grasp mass is to consider how much matter each item or body consists of. There is mass in everything that we can see. A table, a chair, your bed, a football, a glass, and even air are examples of items with mass.

Whether anything is light or heavy depends on its mass. The total amount of matter in an item is its mass. It is a scalar quantity. The beam balance technique

Thus, Car b will have half of car a.
