For a named river you have studied, explain the causes of flooding.

Geography
1 answer:
Marta_Voda [28]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Severe flooding is caused by atmospheric conditions that lead to heavy rain or the rapid melting of snow and ice. Geography can also make an area more likely to flood. For example, areas near rivers and cities are often at risk for flash floods. A flood is an overflow of water onto land that is normally dry. River flooding can happen when there is debris in the river or dams that block the flow of the water. Speaking of dams, broken dams are another cause of flooding. Older infrastructure can fail when heavy rains come and water levels rise.

Why are angiosperms better able to produce offspring than other plants?
PSYCHO15rus [73]
Angiosperms are the most successful plant group is because they have pollens and flowers/fruits. The flowers are able to attract insects and this allows better transportation of pollen. Also, animals and insects may eat the seeds, and that would also be good transportation of the seed because the seed is usually excreted. 
<span>Angiosperms also go through something called double fertilization, which helps the plant </span>
<span>They have a lot less cells than gymnosperm </span>
<span>MOst importantly they have vessels that can escalate their growth</span>

Express the answer in scientific notation. What is the pressure, in N/m2, at a depth of 50 km in the continental crust?
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

1.422\times 10^9 N/m²

Explanation:

pressure (P) =  ρ g h

where ρ= density of continental crust

          g= acceleration due to gravity

          h is the depth given

density of continental crust is equal to 2.9 g/cm³

    = \frac{2.9\times 10^{-3}}{10^{-6} } =2.9\times 10^3 kg/m^3

g=9.81 m/s²

height = 50,000 m

now,

pressure (P) = ρ g h

pressure (P) =2.9\times 10^3\times 9.81\times 50000

                    =1.422\times 10^9 N/m²
