Answer:

Velocity of river, Channel gradient.

Explanation:

The Gradient channel is the river's ability to erode, transport, and deposit load as the upper course of a river is linked with the steep gradient thus lots of velocity and energy are needed for the erosion and transportation to take place.

Movement of discharge is also an important factor in the river carrying capacity determined by the flow of gravity. As the middle and upper courses of the river have higher courses of water since they have upstream tributary than lower thus resulting in more energy to transport.

The velocity of the river is its speed to erode, which is the key to the stream have a higher carrying and eroding capacity when it's young as compared to that of the older stream's. Such as a river that is filled with pollutants or is contaminated has less load-carrying capacity.

The river has various tools it uses to break and deposit a load of contents at the downward side of the stream where water is less dense. As compared to the river that is denser.

A circle with center P is shown. RS and ST are tangent to Circle P. What Is the degree measure of angle RST

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

$\angle RST =110$

Explanation:

Given

$\angle RPT = 70$

See attachment

Required

Find $\angle RST$

To do this, we make use of the following theorem

$\angle RST + \angle RPT = 180$ --- angle at the center and angle between two tangents add up to 180 (i.e. they are supplementary angles)

So, we have:

$\angle RST + 70 = 180$

Collect like terms

$\angle RST =- 70 + 180$

$\angle RST =110$

Which of the following is NOT true?

sergey [27]

Answer:

Volcanoes may form at a fault where a transform fault exists is not a true statement.

Explanation:

olcThe volcanoes can be found across the globe, in most of the regions. What can be noticed though is that there is a high concentration of volcanoes a certain places, while there is much less or lacking in others. The places where there is high concetration of volcanoes are along the divergent and convergent plate boundaries, with isolated volcanic chains in the interior of the plates caused by hot spots.

The places where volcanoes are lacking, except the vast majority of the interior of the plates, are the transform plate boundaries. The reason for this is that at these plate boundaries the plates don't create a gap between each other and make the crust thinner so that magma can move toward the surface, instead, they slide past each other, thus create pressure between each other, which would make it even harder for magma to come out on the surface than in an interior of a plate.
