Question:

Which of the following actions could prevent mass-movement disasters?(a)constructing building and roads in stream drainage paths

(b)removing trees from steep slopes

(c)educating people about the advantages of building on steep slopes

(d)digging a series of trenches to divert water around a slope

<u>Answer</u>:

"Digging a series of trenches to divert water around a slope"  could prevent mass-movement disasters

<u>Explanation</u>:

The trenches are made of 12 to 15 inches in width and at least 6-8 inches depth, can help in normal drainage problem. But in long, steep slopes and areas receiving heavy rainfall, digging of trenches is more advisable. It prevents the tripping over and falling down of people, it protects the runoff of edges and also collapsing. These trenches should be filled with coarse gravel or may be small stones. In the final labelling one or two inch of fine gravel or coarse sand. It will make the surface level which will allow the water to seep down.

Within a phase, a change in heat causes the temperature of the substance to _____ as the _____ energy of the molecules changes.
Nana76 [90]

Within a phase, a change in heat causes the temperature of the substance to change as the kinetic energy of the molecules changes. During a phase change, however, a change in heat causes a change in the potential energy of the molecules and the temperature will stay the same.

<h3>What is Potential energy?</h3>

Potential energy may be defined as a form of accumulated energy that relies upon the comparative situation of diverse parts of a system.

The above passage determines the differentiation between the kinetic and potential energies with respect to temperature and phase change.

Therefore, it is well described above.
