Run-off from pavement or smooth rock during rainfall is much greater and faster than run-off from soil or other surfaces as there is little obstruction (friction) to the water flow. These surfaces also absorb very little water, meaning that there is a larger amount of run-off.
This means that waterways can have to deal with large intakes of water in a very short amount of time, often leading to flash flooding, as the waterway can not handle such a large amount of water at once.
It means that the government is split into two (central and local). The local government (state) helps the central (federal) government make decisions and they govern different parts of the country.
Answer:
- decreases, decreases
Explanation:
Initially travel supply and demand have their equilibrium at the intersection between the supply curve (green) and the demand curve (red) where price is P1 and quantity is Q2. When demand decreases, the quantity demanded decreases to Q1. By the law of supply and demand, when demand decreases the price tends to fall. This is what happens on this chart, where decreasing demand leads to decreasing price, now the new price is P2. Thus, the new equilibrium is the result of decreasing demand quantity and price and is established by crossing the supply curve (green) and the new demand curve (purple) at points P2 and Q1.
An implicit agreement among the members of a society to cooperate for social benefits, for example by sacrificing some individual freedom for state protection. Theories of a social contract became popular in the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries among theorists such as Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as a means of explaining the origin of government and the obligations of subjects.
