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.

What is the best choice for a blank when calibrating the spectrophotometer when you will later measure the absorbance of beverag
ELEN [110]

When calibrating a spectrophotometer, measuring absorbance concurrently is the best option for a blank since it is proportional to the concentration.

Beer's law states that A = a b c, wherein there is the diffusion coefficient at a constant, b is the actual route length, & c is the concentration. Direct proportionality exists between b and c and absorbance.

Once the route length is doubled, incident light contacts double as many molecules in the solution. The consequence is a doubling of absorbance, which is equivalent to a doubling of molecule concentration.

There are two ways to detect chemicals using spectrum scanning. One approach involves turning the monochromator continuously with a stepping motor while gradually altering the wavelength connected to the output slit.

It is more practical to use diode array detectors. Up to a few hundred photodiodes may be incorporated into the chip that makes up this device.
