Geography
1 answer:
andreyandreev [35.5K]3 years ago
4 0

Sinkholes are common where the rock below the land surface is limestone, carbonate rock, salt beds, or rocks that can naturally be dissolved by groundwater circulating through them. As the rock dissolves, spaces and caverns develop underground.

Sinkholes are formed when the land surface above collapses or sinks into the cavities or when surface material is carried downward into the voids. Drought, along with resulting high groundwater withdrawals, can make conditions favorable for sinkholes to form.

worty [1.4K]

The appearance of a flat anvil top indicates that the developing thunderstorm cloud (cumulonimbus) has reached a(n) extremely stable portion of the atmosphere.

Strong winds at high altitudes help create anvils in thunderclouds. The flat top of the anvil forms when rising cloudy air meets the highly stable air of the tropopause and lower stratosphere.

This marks the beginning of the second stage (maturation). The term downdraft is used to describe rain and cold air that begins to descend from a thunderstorm. Downdrafts cumulonimbus (as opposed to updrafts) can be thought of as cold air masses in clouds heading toward the Earth's surface.

1) What is meant by the "partition" of India in 1947?
kogti [31]
The partition of India is the split of India and the creation of Pakistan, splitting the border, which was made by Radcliffe Line, who disregarded any ethnic or religious differences along the border. This occurred right before the British stepped out of control of India. It occurred because of religious conflict between Hindus and Muslims in India, because of the tension created by the Muslim Mughal Empire. Gandhi opposed the partition.
