How does flooding affect rivers?

Geography
1 answer:
Olegator [25]3 years ago
3 0
Flooding can affect rivers because river flooding causes things to be picked up from the streets and pulled back into the water. So It affects the water quality and if anything dangerous to the fish and water life gets in the water it will mess up their life system. Hope this helped a little bit. :)

Geologists believe that the very cold continent Antarctica was once part of a tropical land.
Olin [163]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>True </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Massive landmarks are usually made of diverse climates based on the continent. However, different areas may be affected based on the temperatures of such places; for instance, massive mountains have chains that block moisture and rainfall from reaching the earth’s service.

However, the depot of coal in the United States and Europe shows that some old parts of the continent and those near the equator experiences rainfall similar to that in the tropical forest. Coal usually comes when water and pressure transforms into peat.

Imagine that you have obtained spectra for several galaxies and have measured the observed wavelength of a hydrogen emission lin
Lerok [7]

Answer:

A. z (galaxy 1) = -0.00515, z (galaxy 2) = -0.01707, z (galaxy 3) = -0.04008

B. v (galaxy 1) = -0.00517c, v (galaxy 2) = -0.01707c, v (galaxy 3) = -0.0401c

C. d (galaxy 1) = -21 Mpc,d (galaxy 2) = -69.4 Mpc, d (galaxy 3) = -163 Mpc

Explanation:

We begin by listing out the parameters we were given:

λ (obsv) = 656.3 nm, λ (emit 1) = 659.7 nm, λ (emit 2) = 667.7 nm,

λ (emit 3) = 683.7 nm

A) Using the Redshift formula, we have:

z = [λ (obsv) - λ (emit)]  ÷ λ (emit)

For galaxy 1:

z = [λ (obsv) - λ (emit 1)]  ÷ λ (emit 1)

z = (656.3 - 659.7) ÷ 659.7 = -0.00515

z = -<u>0.00515</u>

For galaxy 2:

z = [λ (obsv) - λ (emit 2)]  ÷ λ (emit 2)

z = (656.3 - 667.7) ÷ 667.7 = -0.01707

z = -<u>0.01707</u>

For galaxy 3:

z = [λ (obsv) - λ (emit 3)]  ÷ λ (emit 3)

z = (656.3 - 683.7) ÷ 683.7 = -0.04008

z = -<u>0.04008</u>

B) Using the Doppler formula, we have:

(Δλ ÷ λ) = v ÷ c

v = c * (Δλ ÷ λ)

but, z = (Δλ ÷ λ)

⇒ v = c * z

speed of light (c) = 3 x 10^{8} m/s

For galaxy 1:

v = c * z

Substitute z into the equation calculated from A) above

v =  3 x 10^{8} * (-0.00515)

v = -1.55 x 10^{6} m/s

v = -<u>0.00517c</u>

For galaxy 2:

v = c * z

Substitute z into the equation calculated from A) above

v =  3 x 10^{8} * (-0.01707)

v = -5.12 x 10^{6} m/s

v = -<u>0.01707c</u>

For galaxy 3:

v = c * z

Substitute z into the equation calculated from A) above

v =  3 x 10^{8} * (-0.04008)

v = -12.03 x 10^{6} m/s

v = -<u>0.0401c</u>

N.B: the negative value of velocity connotes that the galaxies are moving away from us (not towards us)

C) Using Hubbleʹs law, we have:

v = H · d

where:

v = velocity of a galaxy (km/s), d = distance (Mpc),

H = Hubble's constant (km/s/Mpc) = 73.8 km/sec

d = v ÷ H

We use the velocities calculated in B) above

For galaxy 1:

v = -1.55 x 10^{3} km/s

d = -1.55 x 10^{3} ÷ 73.8

d = -<u>21 Mpc </u>

For galaxy 2:

v = -5.12 x 10^{3} km/s

d = -5.12 x 10^{3} ÷ 73.8

d = -<u>69.4 Mpc </u>

For galaxy 3:

v = -12.03 x 10^{3} km/s

d = -12.03 x 10^{3} ÷ 73.8

d = -<u>163 Mpc</u>

N.B: distance cannot be a negative value

Which sentence describes a flat character in a literary text ?
professor190 [17]
"The author portrays the character with a few simple traits" would describe a flat character, since "flat" is the opposite of "deep" when it comes to showing different character trains, personality flaws, etc.

How is Mexico’s Population changing?
Doss [256]

The 2010 census indicates that since 1960 Mexico’s population has more than tripled to 112.3 million. However, the growth rate between 2000 and 2010 (1.4% per year) is less than half the 3.4% rate of increase experienced in the 1960s. If Mexico’s population had continued to grow at 3.4% since 1960, it would have been over 186 million by now!
