  • 6. One example is mud flowing down a hill and onto a highway.    
  • <u>mass wasting</u>

Explanation:

  • The characteristics of the tsunamis are related to those associated with the shaking of the ground that is produced by the movement of the tectonic plates from below as in the event of the earthquakes and thus the sudden release of the violent energy create huge killer waves and they can also lead to the mass wasting phenomenon.
  • <u>Hence the process of mass wasting occurs due to the movement of the layers of them is under the flow of the gravity and is a hazard that is associated with the earthquakes.</u>

What would happen to the environment of Southeast Asia if the standard of living improved very quickly? Explain.
miv72 [106K]

Answer

<u>A rapid improvement in standard of living can mean rapid economic growth with increased population in towns resulting to damaged environment in form of pollution.</u>

Explanation

When the standard of living is associated with rapid growth of the economy, a common scenario is migration of people to urban areas to work and operate businesses. The urban areas will experience increased populations with inadequate housing. The environment will be suppressed because more forests will be cleared to give out spaces for new housing projects. In addition to that, the pollution levels will increase because more wastes will be generated.

<u>MAIN NEWS: NEW YORK EPIC CENTER OF THE CORONAVIRUS EPIDEMIC.</u>

Explanation:

It will be highlighted in the following essay how two two sources of national and international information highlight this news.  Faced with the coronavirus epidemic, many questions arise, such as; As it is possible that the United States in so little time stands out for exceeding the number of infected countries like Italy and China, before this we will see below what could have happened. According to the <em>El Pais editorial (Madrid editorial)</em>, this happened because they did not have a national strategy, and New York does not have a good hospital system, the same respirator is being used for two patients.  

According to the<em> Las Americas editorial</em>, the USA surpasses Italy first and then China, and the federal government sent 400 respirators to New York, when 30,000 are needed. So far, 40,000 retirees and medical students have volunteered to strengthen medical teams. The epidemic is expected to peak in two to three weeks.

Mekhanik [1.2K]
The curved circulation of surface currents is caused by the <span>Earth's rotation. 

</span><span>The 'Coriolis Effect' describes how Earth's rotation steers winds and surface currents (Figure 14.14). The Earth is a sphere that spins on its axis in a counterclockwise direction when seen from the North Pole. The further towards one of the poles you move from the equator, the shorter the distance around the Earth. This means that objects on the equator move faster than objects further from the equator. While wind or an ocean current moves, the Earth is spinning underneath it. As a result, an object moving north or south along the Earth will appear to move in a curve, instead of in a straight line. Wind or water that travels toward the poles from the equator is deflected to the east, while wind or water that travels toward the equator from the poles gets bent to the west. The Coriolis Effect bends the direction of surface currents.</span><span>
