How many times more erosion occurs in a soil with 3% moisture than a soil with 7% moisture is a 15 m s-1 wind?

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Twice.

Explanation:

If a soil with 3% moisture has twice the rate of erosion as compared to the soil having 7% moisture if both experience same speed of wind i. e. 15 m/s. This is because moisture held the particles of soil tightly with each other and prevent erosion in the soil so if the moisture becomes half in the soil then the rate of erosion is twice or doubled at constant wind speed.

Answer:

1. A low- pressure weather system can cause a thunderstorm to develop. 

2.Thunder is caused by lightning. When a lightning bolt travels from the cloud to the ground it creates a channel. Once the light is gone the air collapses back in and creates a sound wave that we hear as thunder.

3. One condition that is necessary for a thunderstorm include warm air and moisture.

4. The dangers of a blizzard include getting lost in the snow and freezing to death.

5. In my opinion, a hurricane would be the most difficult storm to face because hurricanes can severely impact your life due to their damage. For example,winds can damage houses, trees, and any other property. Even if your home is safe, flooding aftermath can occur. When homes are destroyed, people may have to rebuild homes and towns.
