The correct answer is - a) slump.

The slump is a geological occurrence that happens when a larger consolidated mass, usually composed of rocks, moves down, or falls down, a steep slope as one large mass. The movement or falling of the material is relatively short, and it can be only few ten meters, or few hundred meters. The slumps occur suddenly, usually without any warning sign, apart from the loud cracking noise few seconds before the material moves or falls down.

Answer:

A. by pushing water being pushed into a bulge ahead of the advancing underwater debris flow.

Explanation:

The submarine landslides are a type of landslides that transport the sediments downward and thus the ocean floor is filled with the deep deposits of the sediments due to the downwards driving stress. And theses takes place in a variety of different ways including the planets as low as 1 degree.

They tend to be caused by various geologic attributes and these include the weak geologic layers, an example of Norway.

Overpressuring of the rocks strata, due to the deposition that occurs in the river. Some earthquakes and the associated environmental stresses, groundwater seewa[page and the glacial loadings.

Various hazards are associated with the submarine landslide like that of the Tsunamis ad an example of this landslides tsunamis are the landslides if the Papua new guinea as the slides depends on nature and the waves velocity and the wavelength.

A town has two shopping malls. A survey conducted on the shopping preferences of the town's residents showed that 62% of the res

jeyben [28]

Given:

62% of the residents visit Comet Mall.

73% of the residents visit Star Mall.

48% of the residents visit both malls.

To find:

The probability that a resident chosen at random shops at either Comet Mall or at Star Mall.

Solution:

Let A be the event that the residents visit Comet Mall and B be the event that residents visit Star Mall. Then, we have

$P(A)=62\%$

$P(B)=73\%$

$P(A\cap B)=48\%$

We need to find the probability that a resident chosen at random shops at either Comet Mall or at Star Mall. It means, we have to find the value of $P(A\cup B)$ .

We know that,

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)$

On substituting the given values, we get

$P(A\cup B)=62\%+73\%-48\%$

$P(A\cup B)=87\%$

Therefore, the probability that a resident chosen at random shops at either Comet Mall or at Star Mall is 87%.

Temperatures at high latitudes are usually lower than temperatures near the equator because _____.

Virty [35]

Temperatures at high latitudes are usually lower than temperatures near the equator because the solar energy must be spread over a larger area.

In the tropics, places near the equator, temperature is high because there is a net energy surplus. Net energy surplus occurs because the amount of sunlight absorbed is larger than the amount of heat radiated.

In the polar regions, places near the pole or high latitudes, temperature is low because there is an annual energy deficit. The annual energy deficit occurs because the amount of heat radiated to space is larger than the amount of absorbed sunlight.
