<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Several flood mitigation techniques can be used by federal governments. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Diversion of flood water and its storage is a method that can be used for flood mitigation.</em> Floodwaters can be diverted to canals, reservoirs, floodplains etc.

Thus water can be kept out of inhabited areas. Federal governments can enact legislation to establish floodwater and storage.  <em>Restoration of streams and floodplains is another method that can be used to mitigate floods. </em>

These methods can prevent bank erosion and reduce the severity of floods. Legislation's regarding the restoration can be passed by federal states.

<em>Low impact development and green infrastructure store water and thus helps preventing floods. This is another method to mitigate floods.  </em>

Choose the law that BEST explains the example:
german

Answer:

3rd law

Explanation:

First law of Newtons :

 Newton's First Law states that, unless an external force acts on it, an object will remain in a straight line in rest or uniform motion.  

The second law of Newtons :

The second law states that an object's acceleration depends on two variables-the net force that acts on the object and the object's mass.

The change in the linear momentum of the object is equal to the force.

Third law of Newtons :

This law states that every action has its reaction with the same magnitude but in the opposite direction.

When we push the wall , then the wall does not move because the wall is fixed but we skid opposite to the direction of applied force because wall offers an opposite force on our body.

Therefore the answer is "third law".
