Both regional and flash floods result from the release of large quantities of precipitation and/or snow melt.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: a. True

Explanation:

Both regional and flash floods are a result of the release of large quantities of precipitation and/or snow-melt.

Winter and spring rains combined with melting snow overfill river basins and flood the banks, triggering regional floods. Regional floods can also happen when there's lots of rain, which saturates the soil and allows runoff to flood into streams and rivers. A flash flood, also triggered by heavy rains, is a local flood, meaning that it occurs in a small geographical region.

А
A. A steep slope
B. A river
C. A gentle slope
D. A depression

Answers

A) It’s a steep slope, because the isohypses are close to each other, which indicates a steep slope

The land feature which the topographic map shown, describes at point A, is known as C. A gentle slope.

How is a gentle slope depicted?

When using a topographic map, you can spot gentle slopes by looking at areas where the contour lines are not too close to each other as is the case in point A.

Areas with contour lines close together are steep slopes because the land rises fast.

Draw a diagram of THREE weather instrument and explain how it is used
Discuss the importance of weather forecasting.​

Answers

Explanation:

The first picture is of hygrometer.

Hygrometer, instrument used in meteorological science to measure the humidity, or amount of water vapour in the air.

Hygrometer works on the phenomenon called evaporative cooling. When water evaporates from any surface, it becomes cool because water molecules take heat energy from the surface during the evaporation. Due to this cooling effect wet bulb always shows low temperature than the dry bulb.

The second picture is of thermometer.

Thermometer for measuring air and sea surface temperature.

A thermometer has a glass tube sealed at both ends and is partly filled with a liquid like mercury or alcohol. As the temperature around the thermometer's bulb heats up, the liquid rises in the glass tube. The glass tube is mounted on a backboard that is marked in units called degrees.

The third picture is of barometer.

Barometer for measuring atmospheric pressure.

The barometer works by balancing the mercury in the glass tube against the outside air pressure, just like a set of scales. As air pressure increases—that is, as the air becomes heavier—it pushes more of the mercury up into the tube. ... So the level of mercury in the tube provides a precise measure of air pressure.

Importance of weather forecasting:-

Systematic weather records play an effective role in various professions, particularly for agriculture and businesses that are dependent on it. Agricultural processes like planting and harvesting can be planned better and carried out more efficiently if long-term weather patterns can be estimated.

On the other hand, Airlines is another region where weather plays a vital role. They need to recognise the local weather conditions in order to schedule flights. Weather forecasting helps them make perfect daily decisions, and may even help keep us out of danger.

For many years, scientists thought that the ocean floor was flat. During World War II, U.S. Navy ships patrolled the oceans. A captain of one of the ships, Harry Hess, was also a geologist. He used a new device called an echo sounder to map the ocean floor. The echo sounder data showed that the ocean floor had mountains and volcanoes in addition to flat areas.
When scientists took samples of the rocks that made up the ocean floor, they discovered something surprising. The rocks closer to the mid-ocean ridge were younger in age than the rocks far away from the mid-ocean ridge. They concluded that this difference in age was another way to support the theory of plate tectonics.

Which best describes how the scientists could explain their observations?

A They thought that sediment washing in from the shore formed the

ocean floor, and continued to build out from the shore.

B They thought that strong ocean waves pushed the younger rock material toward the middle of the ocean

C They thought that wave erosion at the shore removed the younger rock layers that were on top of the older rock layers.

Answer:

Groins, which are built to maintain or widen beaches, are barriers built at a right angle to the beach. Groins unfortunately cause longshore currents to erode sand from the beach on their downcurrent sides.

Seawalls are built to reflect the forces of unspent waves on the seaward side. Unfortunately, seawalls cause erosion of the beach on the seaward side.

Explanation:

Hard Stabilization is the term given to structures built in the beaches with the objective of blocking the force of the waves, preventing them from invading sensitized places, urban places and, mainly, places where they can cause erosion. These structures can be groins, which are established at right angles to the beach, but cause greater erosion of the areas on the side of the current, and seawalls that are built to prevent the passage of waves and decrease their strength, but increase the risks of erosion of the beach beside the sea.
