The actual distance will be 12 km.
<u>Explanation</u>:
The scale of the map is 1:250000
1 cm in the map represents 250000 cm.
250000cm=2500 m=2.5 km
the measurement in the map is 4.8 cm
since 1 cm represents 250000 cm or 2.5 km
The actual distance represented by 4.8 cm on the map = 4.8*250000 cm =1,200,000 cm=12000 m=12 km
1 - The flow of the river may change as water is fed out into tributaries. 2- As a river flows it may etch out the river bed and create a gulley as it moves sediment and debris. 3- Depending on the speed of a stream it can form into a meandering river with twists and turns. What is interesting about these rivers is they actually move as debris is deposited on one side of the meander and picked up on the other. 4 - Depending on topography the river may increase in speed and give you rapids.
Unemployment was high and working conditions were poor.
Tropical oceans spawn approximately 80 tropical storms annually, and about two-thirds are severe (category 1 or higher on the Saffir-Simpson scale of intensity). Almost 90 percent of these storms form within 20° north or south of the Equator. Poleward of those latitudes, sea surface temperatures are too cool to allow tropical cyclones to form, and mature storms moving that far north or south will begin to dissipate.
Answer:
Natural vs synthetic materials
"Natural" products are made from natural resources, like wood and sand. "Synthetic" products are also made from natural resources. For example, the synthetic material plastic is made from petroleum, which is pumped out of the earth
