Answer:

explained below.

Explanation:

b) Urbanization decreases  the lag time because the  loss of the rainfall decrease as the water absorbed by the ground decreases and water reaches to the river very quickly.

c) In urbanization the runoff occurs for small period of time because there is no hindrance in the flow of the rainfall so the runoff reaches very quickly to the water body.

d) Intense rainfall in urban area often experience the flash flood condition because there no absorption of water by the ground, trees are less so which does not lead to perception of water by leaves of the tree hence all the rainfall is basically converted into runoff and city does not have system to act on the situation which lead to flash flood condition.

Which items describe possible solutions to air pollution?
Radda [10]

Following are the correct options for this question:

  • Build more windmills
  • Develop cost-efficient solar energy
  • Improve gas mileage in cars
  • Reduce the use of nonrenewable energy sources

Any undesirable change occurs in the air due to addition of pollutants is called air pollution. The major air pollutants are sulfur dioxide which is released from the combustion of fossil fuels like coal, petroleum and from factories. Bedsides, sulfur dioxide dust and smokes are other pollutants. Building of more wind mills and developing low cost solar energy will reduce air pollution as they will provide clean energy and will reduce dependency on coal burning in thermal power plant. Improving as mileage in cars will also reduce emission of sulfur dioxide, hence reduce air pollution. Building of more wind mills and developing low cost solar energy are renewable source of energy, will reduce use of nonrenewable energy sources such as fossil fuels.
