Answer:
A large part of South Asia receives rainfall mainly during the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) season of the year (Jun–Sep). The socioeconomic conditions of most of the developing countries in this region largely depend on the ISM rains. It also played important roles in rise and collapse of ancient civilizations in this region. However, the influence of the ISM on Indian ancient civilizations has not yet been fully explored though there were some attempts to correlate monsoon variation with their rise and fall. For example, in the mid to late Holocene period, Indus Valley or Harappan Civilization flourished in the western part of India from its early development, through its urbanization and eventual transformation into a rural society. Probably a prolonged decrease in the ISM rainfall caused the decline in the urban phase of the Indus Civilization around the 4.2 kyr BP global climate event. Another well-recorded early Holocene global climate event is the 8.2 kyr BP cooling event which also reportedly influenced ISM significantly, but its impact on human settlement is not clear in this region. The present study is a comprehensive review of the archaeological and climatological researches carried out on the role of ISM variability on the rise and fall of ancient Indian civilizations for the most part of the ongoing interglacial period, the Holocene. The review covers the studies on the period of the last 10 kyr as evidence suggests that human settlement and cultural developments in this region started around the beginning of this period. We have noted that the existing studies are mostly restricted to vague qualitative analysis of the weakening/strengthening of the ISM, and researches related to quantitative estimations of changes of the monsoon strengths and durations of drought events that caused collapse of civilizations are limited. Therefore, in the present analysis, emphasis has also been given on the requirement of estimating the absolute changes that might have caused cultural shifts. Some possible ways to quantitatively estimate the changes of some climate parameters are discussed.
Answer:
2.5 km = 250000 cm
500 ft = 15240 cm
Explanation:
part a
given data
length = 2.5 km
to find out
Convert into cm
solution
we know that 1 m = 100 cm ...............1
and also we know 1 km = 1000 m .................2
sop as that we can say from equation 1 and 2
1 km = 100000 cm
so for 2.5 km = 2.5 × 100000 cm
2.5 km = 250000 cm
and
part b
given data
length = 500 ft
to find out
Convert ft into cm
solution
we know here that
1 ft = 12 inches ..................1
and also we know 1 inch = 2.54 cm ...................2
so we can say
500 ft = 12 × 500 inches
500 ft = 6000 inches
and 500 ft = 6000 × 2.54 cm
500 ft = 15240 cm
