Discuss the different phases of the Disaster Risk Governance cycle and relate these to hazards, vulnerabilities, disasters, and

posledela

Answer:

As Discussed below.

Explanation:

There are four phases in the disaster risk management like Mitigation and prevention and preparedness in pre-disaster stages. Response and recovery rehabilitation and reconstruction in the post-disaster stage.

A hazard may be characterized by many names like floods, landslides, and earthquakes, etc, they cause harm to vulnerable targets. The term hazard and risk are often associated with each other.

While the concept of vulnerability is related to the weakness or the things that are prone to attacks like the property or any area. As natural hazards are defined by the extremities in the physical environment there are man-made hazards like the biohazards that posses a serious risk to others and in turn, become a disastrous event.

Thus the more vulnerable a property is to disaster the more the chance of rick it posses and the more ca of it becoming a disaster shortly.

Alternative energy sources like solar and wind power

maw [93]

Answer:

c. are renewable

Explanation:

There are many energy sources that the humans have learned to use and exploit. Some resources are non-renewable, while some a re renewable. The non-renewable tend to be cheaper for the time being, and they also tend to produce more energy, but the problem is that the reserves will eventually run out. On the other side, the renewable resources are constantly out there, and they can not be spent, which gives them the advantage on the long run.

The alternative energy sources have been more and more in the focus, especially when it comes to the more developed nations. The main reasons for this are that the fossil fuels will eventually run out, and that they are more environment friendly. This has led to development of technology that is able to harvest energy from the sun, water, and wind, all which are natural resources that are constantly present and can not be spent. Some nations have invested so much in these resources that they have gradually started to replace the fossil fuels, with the end goal being stopping the usage of the fossil fuels totally.

The radius of a circle is 12 cm. Select ALL correct statements.

son4ous [18]

Answer:

B, D, and E

Explanation:

First, the formula for the area of a circle is $\pi$ $r^{2}$

Since pi is equal to 3.14, all we need is the radius squared. Since your radius is 12, $12^{2}$ =144. Therefore, your equation for area will be (3.14)(144), answer B.

Second, the formula for the circumference of a circle is $2\pi r$ .

So, 2(3.14)(12), answer D.

Edit: Answer E also says the same as above- it just multiples the 2 and the 12 together. Sorry for the initial error!
