Answer:

Hydraulic action.

Explanation:

  • The hydraulic action s the capability of the river to erode which when occurs into motion against the surface of the solid rocks, ad produces a mechanical weathering or physical disintegration of rocks and thereby to transport the rock particles.
  • <u>Abrasion, attrition and corrosion and siltation and the downcutting of the ricks are thus an essential feature of this process. And hence with the rapid flow of the water, the cracks of the rocks develop and they become wide-open and thus acts as a wave that stricks the rocks in the ocean.</u>

Find the distance between each pair of points<br> (-5.2, 7) and (3,- 4)
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

13.72units

Explanation:

Given parameters:

   Coordinates of the two points  =  (-5.2, 7) and (3,- 4)

Unknown:

Distance between the two points = ?

Solution:

To find the distance between two points, we use the mathematical expression below;

   D = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1}  )^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1} )^{2}   }

 From the given coordinates;

        x₁  = -5.2      x₂  = 3

        y₁ = 7             y₂ = -4

Now; input the parameters and solve;

  D  = \sqrt{[3-(-5.2)]^{2} + (-4 -7)^{2}  } = \sqrt{67.24 + 121} = 13.72units

The distance between the two points is 13.72units
