Answer:

The Euphrates river

Explanation:

Along with the Tigris, the Euphrates river helped form the Fertile Crescent and the Sumerian civilization.

It starts where the Karasu and Murat rivers merge in eastern Turkey and continues southeasterly for 2800 km (1740 mi) through Syria and Iraq until it merges with the Tigris river at Al-Qurnah. There, it becomes the Shatt al-Arab waterway and empties into the Persian Gulf.

Our current best estimate is that the western Grand Canyon in Arizona began to be excavated by riser erosion about 6 million yea

katovenus [111]

Answer:

0.267mm/yr

7.25 mm

Explanation:

Given the following:

Estimated time since erosion began = 6 million years

Greatest depth of canyon = about 1.6km

The mean rate of erosion in millimeter per year:

Mean rate = Depth of canyon / time

Depth of canyon in millimeter:

1 km = 1000000 mm

1.6km = (1.6 × 1000000) = 1,600,000 mm

Mean rate = 1,600,000mm/ 6,000,000 years

Mean rate = 0.26666 mm/yr

Mean rate = 0.267 mm/year

B.) If rate of erosion = 0.267mm/yr

Date of birth = 30 / 10 / 1992

Today's date = 5 / 9 / 2020

Date difference = 27 years 55 days

Total number of days = (27 *365) + 55 = 9,910 days

Rate of erosion per day = 0.267 / 365 = 0.0007315 mm / day

Change in depth from date of birth till today:

0.0007315 mm/day × 9,910 days

= 7.2492328 mm

= 7.25 mm deeper

This radiations are mainly of 3 types. This includes-

(a) Alpha Radiation- These are the short ranged particles and are very heavy. This radiations cannot penetrate the human skins but they can cause harmful diseases.

(b) Beta Radiation- These are also the short-ranged particles but they lighter. This radiations can penetrate the human skin upto the depth where the new skins are created.

(c) Gamma Radiation- These are highly dangerous and are penetrable to the human skin. This type of radiations are often used for the medical purposes.
