Answer:

combined evapotranspiration is 12.63 in/yr

for avg daily 0.035 in/day

Explanation:

areas = 21000 sq. km

precipitation in year 2000 = 21 in/yr.

stream flow (Q) = 5000 ft³/s

runoff =  \frac{Q}{A}

runoff= \dfrac{5000\ ft^3/s}{21000\  km^2}\times (\dfrac{1 km^2}{(3280.84 ft)^2} ) \times \dfrac{86400s}{days}  \times \dfrac{365}{years} \times \dfrac{12 in}{ft}

runoff= 8.37 in/yr

total precipitation = 21 in/yr

hence

Evapotranspiration for watershed

ET= P - R

ET = 21 - 8.37 = 12.63 in/yr

so the combined evapotranspiration is 12.63 in/yr

for avg daily ET= 12.63/365 in/day

                         = 0.035 in/day

PLZ HELP Sediments are almost always deposited in flat layers. Does it appear that forces in the Earth affected the rock layers
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

In this region we see that faulting has occurred. Because the rock strata are not lined up with one another across the entire region, it is clear that the land has faulted and the the two edge blocks have slipped downwards leaving the middle block uplifted or that the middle block has been pushed upwards.

These two types of faulting are called normal faulting and reverse faulting. They are the result of tension and compression stresses, respectively, that pull and compress the rocks creating fractures called faults. If the stress is sufficient, the outer blocks slide downward or the middle block is uplifted.
