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.

Which statement explains the role of rovers in space exploration?
Ratling [72]
Rover (or sometimes planetary rover) is a space exploration vehicle designed to move across the surface of a planet or other celestial body. Some rovers have been designed to transport members of a human spaceflight crew; others have been partially or fully autonomous robots. Rovers usually arrive at the planetary surface on a lander-style spacecraft.[1] Rovers are created to land on another planet, besides Earth, to find out information and to take samples. They can collect dust, rocks, and even take pictures. They are very useful for exploring the universe.

What is the best way to get information concerning an athlete's psychological strengths and weaknesses
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

oral interview and psychological inventories

Explanation:

Through degree training, psychology professionals are acquiring a set of tools, techniques, procedures and methods, from different theoretical schools, which are used to evaluate and intervene with the people they work with. Some call these people "patients", but in the field of sport, it is preferable to speak of "athletes" or simply "individuals", since the word patient, from the biomedical paradigm, refers to "passivity", to someone who suffers pain and expects the professional to "take it away." The individual with whom the sports psychologist works (the athlete or the team, the coach, the referee or any other “actor” in the field of sport) could say, is a worker, that is, that is not waiting for solutions provided by the psychologist, but works helped by him to improve his psychological skills for training and competition, without neglecting his health and personal well-being.

    The objective of this work is to present the psychological interview as a tool widely used by professionals who work in this field, but little studied, in relation to its objectives, how to carry it out and its scope.

Lynna [10]

Answer: 2.81 x 10∧14 baterias after 16 hours.

Explanation:

Hi, first we have to find how many 20 minute intervals are in 16 hours.

If 1 hour = 60 min, 16hours = 960 minutes (16 h x 60 min / 1 h)

If we divide the 960 minutes (16 hours) by 20 minutes we obtain 48. (960/48)

There are 48 twenty minutes intervals in 16 hours.

Now we have to apply the exponential growth formula:

P (t) = Po (1 +r) ∧t

Where:  

P (t) = population at time t  

P (0) = initial population (1)

r = growth rate (1)

t = time (48)

Replacing with the values given:

P (t) = 1 (1 + 1) ∧48= 2.81 x 10∧14

2.81 x 10∧14 baterias after 16 hours.
