In what unit of measurement is discharge usually measured when referring to water flow

History
1 answer:
loris [4]3 years ago
5 0
The discharge<span> of a stream is the product of its velocity </span><span>(V </span>- length of travel per unit of time such as feet/second) times depth of the water (D<span> - unit of length) times width (</span>W of the water<span>- units of length). (Make sure all all three lengths are expressed in the same unit.)</span><span><span>
Discharge = V x D x W</span>If length is measured in feet and time in seconds, Discharge has units of <span>feet3/sec</span> or cubic feet per second (cfs).Depth times Width gives the cross-sectional area. The shape of the channel is important because of the reduction in velocity due to friction along the channel margins. In a natural situation, an increase in discharge (cubic feet/second) will result in an increase in all three parameters - the river becomes wider, deeper and flows at a higher velocity.</span>

Why did the ancient city-state of Athens and Sparta develop different political systems?
sergij07 [2.7K]

The mountainous topography of the Greek peninsula resulted in the isolation of these two city-states.

Athens developed a system that valued philosophy and active political involvement by its citizens in an early form of democracy. (Note that it wasn't full democracy as we'd think of it today, as those who had a political voice were free men, not women or slaves.)

Sparta developed a militaristic system that valued physical training and military service, as well as a strict loyalty to the state.

Question: Why is voting an important form of participating in
romanna [79]
The short answer is that America is a democratic country which means that the people have a right to vote and choose who will lead their country. It’s important that everyone votes so that the presidency- for example- will not be one just by electoral votes but also the people. Then voting for your small town or state is important because that will more closely show how you are ruled.

Hope this helps please give brainliest❤️
