Identify the true statement. Choose one: A. The angle of repose is the steepest angle at which unconsolidated sediments can sit
Margarita [4]

Answer:

A. The angle of repose is the steepest angle at which unconsolidated sediments can sit without slipping downhill

Explanation:

The angle of repose is the steepest angle at which unconsolidated sediment can be piled without sliding downward. The angle is also known as critical angle . At this angle the unconsolidated sediments are at the verge of slumping . The angle between the surface of the piled sediments and the horizontal surface is the angle of the repose. At this angle the unconsolidated sediments have reached it limit of accommodating more materials unless it will slump downward.

The make up of the unconsolidated sediments can affect the angle of repose as rounded and fined gained rocks cannot be piled as rough texture d rock materials. The angle of repose can also be affected by the amount of solvents in the sediment. Various rocks sediments possess different angle of repose. Same sediment material can possess different angle of repose if the water contents varies .Example, the angle of repose for sand varies depending on the water contents. The true statement is option A.

The picture above illustrate the angle of repose.

When a cold front approaches, air pressure will initially ________ due to the displacement and uplift of ________ air. Group of
klio [65]

When a cold front approaches, air pressure will initially decrease due to the displacement and uplift of warm air.

<h3>What is a cold front?</h3>
  • A cold front is the leading edge of a cooler mass of air at ground level that replaces a warmer mass of air and lies within a noticeable low-pressure trough.
  • It frequently originates behind an extratropical cyclone, along the leading edge of the storm's cold air advection pattern, also known as the cyclone's dry "conveyor belt" flow.
<h3>What is air pressure?</h3>
  • The air around you is heavy, and it pounds against everything it comes into contact with.
  • That pressure is known as atmospheric pressure, sometimes known as air pressure.
  • It is the force exerted by the air above a surface while gravity draws it to Earth.
  • A barometer is widely used to measure atmospheric pressure.
<h3>What happens when the cold front approaches?</h3>
  • When a cold front approaches, air pressure drops initially due to warm air displacement and uplift.

Therefore, when a cold front approaches, air pressure will initially decrease due to the displacement and uplift of warm air.

Conic projections are most accurate at
Furkat [3]

Answer: A)

Explanation:

I have found the rest of your question.

A. lines of latitude touched by the cone. B. lines of longitude closest to the equator. C. lines of latitude closest to the poles. D. lines of longitude closest to the poles.

The correct answer is A) Lines of latitude touched by the cone because we are talking about Lambert conformal conic projection and that a conic map which is used for aeronautical charts. The latitude lines are slightly curved and touched by the cone when the cone is flattened out. The cone can also intersect the globe.

or touch it.
