Answer:

Conditions at the base of a glacier increase glacial flow velocity -

Steeper slope

Smooth rock / glacier contact

Colder basal water temperature.

Explanation:

Steeper slope and smooth rock/glacier contact will increase glacial flow velocity because higher the steepness higher the velocity and smoothness will apply less friction.

Due to decrease in ice thickness the load at the bottom of the glacier will decrease, and we know that the glacier flows under the load of itself, so lesser the load lesser the velocity.

Colder basal water temperature will generate less amount of melt as compared to warmer basal water temperature, so in colder condition, glacial flow velocity will not be increased.

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

B. atmosphere: because the ash blocked more radiation than normal, not allowing it to reach the surface

Explanation:

The volcanoes are one of the major factors that shape the climate on Earth. Their influence can be more moderate and gradual, or it can very big and abrupt. The large volcanic eruptions manage to cause changes in the global climate very quickly. The reason for this is that they have big influence on the atmosphere. By releasing lot of ashes and small particles into the atmosphere, a layer of them is formed around the Earth. This layer had greater albedo, thus it is reflecting the sunlight instead of letting it go through. This causes rapid drop in the global temperatures, and as was the case in 1815, it resulted in a year without summer. If the volcanic eruption is very big and comes from a super-volcano, than it can have much longer impact, lasting for decades or even centuries.

PLEASE NEED HELP!!!
Oxana [17]

Answer:

What makes a good sales pitch is the ability to appeal to people's wants not their needs.

Explanation:

So people would rather buy a product that they would want rather than one they actually need. It's like why people buy carbonated beverages at the grocery store instead of water or health centered drinks. It doesn't matter if it's bad for you, if it's good and yummy they'll buy it.

So equating this to a location would be talking about all of the places tourists visit most. Famous restaurants, famous landmarks, see whether or not anyone famous lives in Arizona. Bring up pop culture references. Talk about famous movies that were shot there. It's all about show, it doesn't matter if it's an actually interesting place.

Bring up the Grand Canyon and how breathtaking it is to see (despite not ever visiting it), talk about the unique sandstone formations, you can talk about Pizzeria Bianco which is 8th best rated restaurant in Downtown Phoenix, or Durant's another famous restaurant. Bring up movies like Poltergeist II, Forest Gump (Flagstaff, Arizona), Transformers (Grand Canyon, Arizona), Star Trek: First Contact (Green Valley, Arizona), Star Trek Generations (Green Valley, Arizona), The Exorcist II: The Heretic (Page, Arizona), Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (Page, Arizona), Planet of the Apes (Page, Arizona), etc.

An ad is really just enticing your audience into wanting what you're selling, regardless of how nonsensical it is.

Hope this helps!

Valentin [98]

There are three kinds of rock: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks form when molten rock (magma or lava) cools and solidifies. Sedimentary rocks originate when particles settle out of water or air, or by precipitation of minerals from water.
