The code of Hammurabi was an important document in the evolution of laws
The statement is - True.
Mount Elbert has an elevation of 4,401 meters (which is almost three miles), and it has a prominence of 2,772 meters. It is the highest summit of the Rocky Mountains of North America. Mount Elbert also represents the highest point of the state of Colorado, and it is also the highest point of the Mississippi River drainage basin which covers 41% of the USA's territory. More specifically this peak is in the Rocky Mountains Range, Sawatch Range, Southern Rocky Mountains Range.
Answer:
Physical properties of mercury are described here.
Explanation:
Mercury is a metal. Mercury is the only metal which is liquid at room temperature. Mercury is shiny silver in liquid form. It has a melting point of -38.9 degree Celsius and a boiling point of 356.7 degree Celsius. The symbol of mercury is Hg and it has an atomic number, 80 and atomic weight of 200.59. Mercury is a poor conductor of heat and good conductor of electricity. Mercury is considered a heavy metal.
In this question, its liquid form, and the volume of the mercury grows as temperature rises, are the examples of physical properties of the mercury.
Answer:
Explanation:
Building and business closures for weeks or months reduce water usage, potentially leading to stagnant
water inside building plumbing. This water can become unsafe to drink or otherwise use for domestic or
commercial purposes. For example, optimal growth conditions for undesirable pathogens, such as
Legionella bacteria, can occur when hot water temperatures decrease and disinfectant residuals (e.g.,
chlorine) drop to low levels. Water chemistry changes may also increase corrosion and leaching of
metals, including lead, and may cause the formation of disinfection by-products. Turning on the water
for immediate use after it has been stagnant can pose a risk to public health if not properly managed.
Additionally, turning on water after a prolonged period of non-use could disrupt pipe and plumbing
scales to such an extent that microbial and chemical contaminants could be released into the water.
EPA recommends that building owners and manage
Answer:
1. Applying <u>the principle of original horizontality</u> -indicates that layers were repositioned from a flat-lying orientation.
2. Magma intrudes into layers of sedimentary rock and displaces them. We can deduce that the intruded magma that crystallizes is younger than the surrounding sedimentary layers by applying <u>the principle of crosscutting relationships</u>.
3. While visiting the Grand Canyon, you are amazed by the depth of layers of sedimentary rock before you, <u>the law of superposition</u>-- is evident here where progressively younger layers have formed over time and are stacked upon each other.
4. A fault cuts through layers of limestone, sandstone, and conglomerate. The surrounding layers must be <u>older</u> than the fault.
5. A mass of granite has inclusions of surrounding sandstone. The sandstone and surrounding layers show evidence of uplift over time. The granite must be <u>younger</u> than the sand deposits.
