A:Because it is resistant to corrosion, nickel was occasionally used as a substitute for decorative silver. Nickel was also occasionally used in some countries after 1859 as a cheap coinage metal (see above), but in the later years of the 20th century, it was replaced by cheaper stainless steel (i.e. iron) alloys, in the United States and Canada, except for a few ceremonial uses which still called for elemental nickel to be used. B:If an American collector purchased a mint-condition, pure-nickel proof coin of his or her nation's namesake "nickel" coin, would the interior of this collectible coin be wholly different than that of a garden-variety American nickel that had no value aside from the 5-cents on its face?

B:When Americans and Canadians refer to their common 5-cent coin as a nickel in the late 20th and early 21st century, are they doing so out of tradition rather than as a reference to metal that actually makes up the coin (as alluded to in this passage)? Answer: statutes
A:After the death of his wife in July 1803, Ampère moved to Paris, where he began a tutoring post at the new École Polytechnique in 1804. Because of his formal qualifications, Ampère was appointed a professor of mathematics at the school in 1809. As well as holding positions at this school until 1828, in 1819 and 1820 Ampère offered courses in philosophy and astronomy, respectively, at the University of Paris, and in 1824 he was elected to the prestigious chair in experimental physics at the Collège de France. In 1814 Ampère was invited to join the class of mathematicians in the new "Institut Impérial", the umbrella under which the reformed state Academy of Sciences would sit. B:Would it be appropriate to call Ampère an autodidact? Answer: statutes

B:Does it sound like the USA and Canada have a relative abundance of nickel ore in their respective territories, as compared to other nations which found iron to be a more convenient source of metal for coins?

B:Is there good reason to believe that in 1809 Ampère was very knowledgeable in the field of mathematics? Answer:
