Question

which best describes the purpose of the rhetorical questions kennedy asks in \among free men\? they appeal to timeliness, reminding the audience of martin luther king jr.s death the previous day. they support an appeal to logic by suggesting how illogical the use of violence is. they are an appeal to audience members sense of right and wrong. they appeal to the audience members emotions by revealing kennedys anger.

Explanation:

Rhetorical questions in speeches often aim to engage the audience on a moral or ethical level. In this context, appealing to the audience's sense of right and wrong (an ethical appeal or ethos) is a common and effective rhetorical strategy. The other options either focus on a specific event (timeliness related to MLK's death) which may not be the core purpose of the rhetorical questions, an appeal to logic (which is more about presenting facts and reasoning rather than questions that prompt moral reflection), or an emotional appeal based on the speaker's anger (which is less likely the main intent compared to an ethical - moral appeal).

Answer:

They are an appeal to audience members' sense of right and wrong.
