<span>The famine triggered by the "Great Leap Forward" was one of the largest man-made disasters in human history. Estimates of the number of casualties vary greatly and are difficult, if not impossible, to verify. Conservative estimates assume that from 1958 to 1961, over 14 million people died of starvation, and the number of reported births was about 23 million fewer than under normal conditions. Other authors have estimated the number of famine-related death of up to 30 million or higher

The three ways in which materials respond to forces:
1.Tension,
2.Compression,
3.Bending.
Explanation:
Tension- The force that is exerted when physical objects come in contact with each other.
Compression- Compression is the application of balanced inward ("pushing") forces to different points on a material or structure.
Bending- A bending force is a force that is applied to a length of material.

the water level of a stream or river exceeds its natural banks, it has reached
its flood stage. This is a real panic stage for people living nearby the rivers
and streams that has overflowed its natural banks. This flood situation can
destroy any city or village and also drastically impact the financial situation
of the area. Most cities and states move their citizens away from the river
banks before it reaches this danger stage. Before the emergence of
technological advancement, historical evidence proves that many great cities
were destroyed due to such situations. <span /></span>
