What else can I help you with?
Are beaches made of sand from erosion rocks True or False?
True. Beaches are made of sand that is often formed from the erosion of rocks and minerals along coasts. This erosion can come from various sources, such as wave action, weathering, and human activities.
True or false a tsunami causes more damage than a tornado?
True. Tsunamis typically cause widespread and severe damage due to their powerful and destructive nature, impacting coastal areas over large distances. Tornadoes can also be destructive, but their damage is usually localized to a smaller area compared to the widespread devastation caused by tsunamis.
Is it true or false that deposition occurs where the agents of erosion lay down sediment?
True. Deposition occurs when the agents of erosion, such as water, wind, or ice, deposit or lay down sediment that they have previously transported from one location to another. This sediment accumulates in new areas, forming landforms like deltas, beaches, or alluvial fans.
Problems from a drain pipe that slopes to much?
None, people used to think it caused erosion or leave solids behind but it was proven not true
True or false beaches are covered with sand?
It can be either true or false. Some beaches are covered with sand. Others are covered in different types of materials such as pebbles.
There is a great deal of erosion on the moon caused by wind and water true or false?
No. There is no wind, gravity, or water on the moon. The footsteps of the men who landed there are still there.
True or false accelerated erosion is the sudden large increase in erosion that often occurs when man has disturbed the land by construction?
True!
Is it true that waves tides and currents are responsible for erosion of islands?
True
Is the gulf of Mexico prone to tsunamis?
The Gulf of Mexico is generally considered to be at a lower risk for tsunamis compared to other regions, such as the Pacific Ocean. While tsunamis can occur due to underwater landslides or seismic activity, significant tsunamis in the Gulf are rare. The topography and geological features of the region do not typically favor the generation of large tsunamis. However, smaller tidal waves or seiche events can occur, but they are not classified as true tsunamis.
Is subsidence caused by flooding caves yes or no?
No, subsidence is typically caused by the collapse of underground materials such as soil and rock, rather than flooding caves. Flooding caves may contribute to erosion of underground materials, but it is not a direct cause of subsidence.
Erosion differs from weathering in that earth material is transported true or false?
True.
Is it true that tsunamis are only a few feethigh in shallow water?
No. Tsunamis may only be a few centimetres high in DEEP water but as the water depth decreases the wave height increases.
