The correct answer is - natural gas.

The natural gas is a fossil fuel, meaning that it is derived from the decomposition of organic matter, and through time went under certain processes in the crust that made its current composition.

This fossil fuel is known to cause much less pollution than the other fossil fuels, especially when compared to the oil and the coal which are both very big polluters.

The natural gas is distributed to the homes and factories through pipelines.

The main pollution form the natural gas doesn't come from its direct usage, but instead form the leaking during its transportation and moving it from one container to another. It releases a lot of methane in those cases which ends up in the atmosphere and contributes to the Greenhouse effect, but that is only very small amount.

What so shamals and simooms have in common?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
Simoom is a strong, dry, dust-laden wind usually used to describe a local wind to blows in the Sahara, Palestine, Syria, Jordan and the Arabian Peninsula. It can exceed 54 degrees C and the humidity can drop bellow 10%.
Shamal is a northwesterly wind blowing over Iraq and Persian Golf states, very often strong during the day, but decreasing at night. This wind occurs anywhere from just once, to several times a year, and it creates large sandstorms.
The similarities between these two winds is that they are strong, dry winds, that cause sandstorms.

Answer:

The type of weathering that occurs is abrasion.

Explanation:

Iguazu Falls are one of the highest waterfalls in the world and the biggest waterfall system in the world. The amount of water that falls down these waterfalls is enormous, and that combined with the height gives the water a lot of power. The water is carrying huge amounts of pebbles, rocks, the debris of all sorts and sizes, and they combined with the water manage to erode the bedrock.

As the water carries all of the material with it, it scratches the surface of the bedrock, and as it does it gradually makes the surface of the bedrock smooth. At the waterfalls themselves, the power with which the water and the material it carries are much bigger so they manage to create a very deep caldron-like hole in the bedrock below the waterfall, and plus smoothens its surface.

Please let me know !! ASAP PLS

Answer:

AD = 8, DC = 15, m\,\angle A = 112^{\circ}, m\,\angle B = 68^{\circ}, m\,\angle C = 112^{\circ}

Explanation:

If the quadrilateral presented in figure is a parallelogram, then the following conditions are satisfied:

AD = BC (1)

AB = DC (2)

m\,\angle D = m\,\angle B (3)

m\,\angle A = m\,\angle C (4)

m\,\angle A + m\,\angle B = 180^{\circ} (5)

m\,\angle C + m\,\angle D = 180^{\circ} (6)

If we know that m\,\angle D = 68^{\circ}, AB = 15 and BC = 8, then we have the following results:

AD = 8, DC = 15, m\,\angle A = 112^{\circ}, m\,\angle B = 68^{\circ}, m\,\angle C = 112^{\circ}
