The trade and commerce was the reason due to which San Francisco and Hong Kong were considered as part of same region.

Explanation:

The countries such as San Francisco and Hong Kong were located on the same coast line. They both have equal power over the Pacific Ocean ad they are dependent on the ocean for the purpose of trade and commerce.

As the trade and commerce is considered as one of the most important aspect of the country, due to their usage of Pacific Ocean for it, San Francisco and Hong Kong are considered as part of the same region.

a rural kansas watershed that is ungauged has an area of 475 acres and a main channel length of 6870 feet with an average slope

dlinn [17]

Answer:

$\mathbf{Q_p =682 \ \ ft^3/s}$

Explanation:

Given that:

Area = 475 acres

The length of the channel (L) = 6870 feet

The average water shield slope (S) = 100 feet/mile

Since; 1 mile = 5280 feet

Burst duration D = 15 min

∴

100 feet/mile = 100/5280

The average water shield slope (S) = 5/264

Using hydrograph method:

The time of concentration $t_c = 0.0078L^{0.77} S^{-0.385}$

where;

L = 6870

S = 5/264

$t_c = 0.0078(6870)^{0.77} (\dfrac{5}{264})^{-0.385}$

$t_c =32.34$ min

Since 60 min = 1 hour

32.34 min will be (32.34*1)/60

= 0.539 hour

Lag time $T_l = 0.67\times t_c$

$T_l = 0.67\times 32.34$

$T_l = 21.6678\ min$

The time to peak i.e

$T_p = \dfrac{D}{2}+ T_L \\ \\ T_p = \dfrac{15}{2}+ 21.6678 \\ \\ T_p = 29.168 \ min$

$T_r = \dfrac{T_p}{5.5} \\ \\ T_r = \dfrac{29.1678}{5.5} \\ \\ T_r = 5.30 \ min$

Since D = 15 min is not equal to $T_r$ , then we hydrograph apart from $T_r$ duration lag time.

Then;

$T_p \ ' = T_p + \dfrac{D-t_r}{4} \\ \\ T_p \ ' = 29.168 + \dfrac{15-5.30}{4} \\ \\ T_p \ ' = 31.593$

Now, we need to determine the peak discharge $Q_p$ by using the formula:

$Q_p = \dfrac{484 \times A}{T_p \ '}$

where

484 = peak factor

Recall that A = 475 acres, to miles, we have:

A = 0.7422 mile²

$T_p \ ' = 31.593/60$

∴

$Q_p = \dfrac{484 \times 0.7422}{\dfrac{31.593}{60}}$

$\mathbf{Q_p =682 \ \ ft^3/s}$

South of London is an example of absolute location. Question 1 options: True False

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The statement 'south of London' is an example of 'absolute location' is false.

Explanation:

A location can be said to be an absolute location when it is defined with exact longitudinal and latitudinal coordinates.

For instance, the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London can be said to be an example of 'absolute location' because its location can be pinpointed with the help of longitudes and latitudes.

When we say south of London, it can be the entire area that falls south of London, which cannot be an example of an 'absolute location'.

A violent flare-up of a star for a short time is called a he

katrin [286]

Answer:

Solar flare

Explanation:

A solar flare is an outburst of solar radiation from the surface of the sun outward. This leads to increase in heat intensity and brightness around sun.

The flare is often accompanied by the ejection of electromagnetic radiations from the surface of the star into the stellar space. It can last from a few minutes to some hours.
