What was the Lusitania and why was it so important?
From the Britannica Concise Encyclopedia:
The Lusitania was a British ocean liner sunk by a German submarine off the coast of Ireland on May 7, 1915. The British Admiralty had warned the Lusitania to avoid the area and to use the evasive tactic of zigzagging, but the crew ignored these recommendations. Though unarmed, the ship was carrying munitions for the Allies, and the Germans had circulated warnings that the ship would be sunk. The loss of life - 1,198 people drowned, including 128 U.S. citizens - outraged public opinion. The U.S. protested Germany's action, and Germany limited its submarine campaign against Britain. When Germany renewed unrestricted submarine warfare, the U.S. entered World War I in April 1917.

Where is telephone country code 50?
Telephone country codes never begin with zero.
Country code +50, dialed as 011 50 from North America (USA, Canada, etc.), is an incomplete code for somewhere in the Americas.
Country codes beginning with +50X are in Central and South America.
+500 Falkland Islands
+501 Belize
+502 Guatemala
+503 El Salvador
+504 Honduras
+505 Nicaragua
+506 Costa Rica
+507 Panama
+508 St Pierre and Miquelon
+509 Haiti
To avoid confusion, it is best to write an international telephone number in correct international format, beginning with the plus symbol and the correct telephone country code (e.g., +506 for Costa Rica), omitting any dialing prefix.
In the UK, 0115 is the area code for Nottingham.If the entire number is like 0115 0xx xxxx with that exact number of digits, then this is a National Dialling Only number. This number can only be dialled if the area code is always included - even when calling from another Nottingham number.
(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)

How did the Triple Alliance and the Triple Entente lead to the start of World War 1?
Imagine two big gangs,
Franz Ferdinand gets shot, Austria threaten's Serbia with invasion if her demands are not met, Serbia is friends with Russia
Russia offers help is Serbia gets invaded
Germany offers help to Austria if the Russains aid Serbia
Russia is allied with France
Germany is allied with Turkey
So Austria invaded Serbia, Russia declares war on Austria, Germany declares war on Russia, France gets involved,
So as you can see the two big alliances designed so there could never big a big war failed, because once war was declaired all sides had to back there own alliance.

What led the us into World War 1?
America's long-standing policy of isolationism left the United States reluctant to involve itself with what was popularly perceived, among the American public, as a European war. Early in 1917, Germany resumed its policy of unrestricted submarine warfare. This, combined with public indignation over the Zimmermann telegram, led to a final break of relations with the Central Powers. After further U-boat attacks on American merchant ships, President Woodrow Wilson requested that Congress declare war on Germany, which it did on April 6, 1917 (see: Woodrow Wilson declares war on Germany on Wikisource). The House approved the war resolution 373-50, the Senate 82-6. Wilson hoped a separate peace could be achieved with Austria-Hungary; however, when it kept its loyalty to Germany, the US declared war on Austria-Hungary in December 1917. Although the American contribution to the war was important, particularly in terms of the threat posed by an increasing US infantry presence in Europe, the United States was never formally a member of the Entente, but an "Associated Power." Significant numbers of American troops only arrived in Europe in the summer of 1918. Germany calculated that it would be some time before large numbers of American troops could be sent to Europe, and that, in any event, the U-boat offensive would prevent their arrival. Still, the United States had been in a state of full military-related production, aiding the Entente for quite some time, and had also loaned the Allied powers vast sums of money. For these reasons, the Germans had made the decision to resume unrestricted submarine warfare, despite the threat of U.S. intervention, gambling that they would win the war before America could make an impact on the battlefield. The United States Navy sent a battleship group to Scapa Flow to join with the British Grand Fleet, a number of destroyers to Queenstown, Ireland and several submarines to the Azores and to Bantry Bay, Ireland to help guard convoys. Several regiments of U.S. Marines were also dispatched to France. However, it would be some time before the United States would be able to contribute significant manpower to the Western and Italian fronts. The British and French wanted the United States to send its infantry to reinforce their troops already on the battlelines. Indeed, throughout the war, the American forces were short of their own artillery, aviation, and engineering units. However, General John J. Pershing, American Expeditionary Force (AEF) commander, resisted breaking up American units and using them as reinforcements for British Empire and French units. Without experience in this type of warfare, Pershing ordered the use of frontal assaults, which had been discarded by that time by British Empire and French commanders as too costly in lives of their troops. As a result, the AEF suffered a very high rate of casualties in its operations in the summer and fall of 1918.

Why did Russians help Serbs fight Ottoman Empire?
Russians and Serbians are both Slavic peoples. They have similar languages, cultures, backgrounds, and religions. This compelled the Russian leaders to want to help the Serbs. Though the did not gain independence, the Serbs did gain autonomy.
What is the similarities of centrifugal and centripetal force?
Centripetal Force is more directed towards the center of the axis of rotation of
an object following an elliptical or circular path. Centrifugal Force is the force
that pulls away from the center because of the objects inertia.
Example: If you took a rock, tied it to a string, and swung it around, the force
from the center of the axis of rotation is centripetal force. The force that causes
the rock to pull away from the center, is centrifugal force. If you have ever been
in a fast moving car that sharply turns and you feel as if you are pulled to the
side, that too is centrifugal force caused by your inertia. The more mass the
more inertia.
this answer is very good
==============================
But largely erroneous.
"Centrifugal" force doesn't exist. It's a make-believe, made-up thing, that's
not really there.
When the centripetal force suddenly shuts off, the object proceeds in a straight
line, in the direction it was going at the instant when the centripetal force stopped,
and naturally, the straight line takes it straight away from what used to be the
center of its motion. We see the object take off straight away from the former
center, and we say "Gee, there must be a force pulling it away from there." But
there isn't any.
That "force" that you think you feel when the car turns a corner and you get
pressed against the door, away from the curve ? That's just the tendency of
your body to want to keep moving in a straight line, and its reaction to the
centripetal force that the car-seat and the door are exerting on you in order
to make your body move in a curved path. There is no "centrifugal" force.
Why did the US decide to join the allies?
During World War I, the United States joined the allies because its neutrality had been violated by Germany -- the leading nation among the "Central Powers," against which the Triple Alliance was fighting. In addition, sympathy in America had largely already moved in the direction of the allies because of the close ties between many Americans and Great Britain.
Why did the US not want to get involved in World War 1?
Because people die in wars. If you're not apart of it, many of those people won't be yours. Why take on the expense, loss of life, and political hardship of a war when it is unnecessary? The US decided to stay out of it until two things changed their minds: A. The sinking of their shipping by German U-Boats B. The Zimmerman Telegram, in which Germany was trying to start a war against the US with Mexico as their ally. When America became the target of aggression it decided to join the Great War, but before then there was not much motivation to do so, it just wasn't seen as their problem.
