How does a meander form in a river?

Geography
1 answer:
AlexFokin [52]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A meander forms in a river by eroding laterally, to the right side then the left side and the left side again, this forms large bends, which then horseshoe like loops called meanders. The force of the water then erodes and undercuts the river bank on the outside of the bend which is where the water flows and it has the most energy due to the decreasing friction.

hope this helps :)

From the top of a building 42 feet high, the angle of depression to a car stopped on the ground it is 27°. What is the distance
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

82.43\ \text{feet}

Explanation:

Angle of depression = 27^{\circ}

b = Height of building = 42 feet

\theta=90-27=63^{\circ}

p = Distance from the car to the base of the building

From the trigonometric identities we get

\tan\theta=\dfrac{p}{b}\\\Rightarrow p=b\tan\theta\\\Rightarrow p=42\tan63^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow p=82.43\ \text{feet}

The distance from the car to the base of the building is 82.43\ \text{feet}.
