How are hills different from mountains

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Hills are easier to climb than mountains. They are less steep and not as high. But, like a mountain, a hill will usually have an obvious summit, which is its highest point. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, there is no official difference between hills and mountains.

valina [46]

Answer:

2000m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Rate of regional erosion = 2 m per 1000years

Unknown:

Amount of regional erosion in 1, 000, 000 years.

Solution:

If it takes 1000 years for regional erosion to remove 2m of earth

then, in 1, 000, 000 years, the amount of regional erosion will be: $\frac{ 2 x 1000000}{1000}$

⇒ 2000m

In a million years to come, 2000m of earth would have been eroded as a result of regional erosion.
