Is an erosion a good thing or a bad thing?

That would depend. Erosion to certain places can have benefits, while others can cause things like flooding. ------------------ Answer #2 Erosion is neither good nor bad, it simply is. However the effects of erosion can be categorized in good/bad. Erosion of some rock faces by rivers can cause the creation of new waterways, and open caverns underground. This can cause either devastation or a positive action by creating homes for creatures and plant life. On a slightly more negative note, beach erosion is a bad thing as it causes shorelines to become weaker and if someone has a home on the beach it could end up weakening the structural integrity of their house, causing danger.


What is the difference between the crystal faces and cleavage faces?

cleavage surface are smooth and shiny as the fracture is due to weakness in the bonds between the atoms rather than a breakage. Crystal face is where the crystal development such as twinning take place.


Is it true that cats scratch a post before a wind wash their faces before a rain and put their backs to the fire before snow?

That is probably just a myth. What does it mean when a cat puts its back to the fire in Florida, then?


What can be done to prevent beach erosion?

Beach erosion is a common issue in coastal areas. Wind and waves cause most of the erosion. As coastal areas become more developed, erosion threatens structures built on beaches. Beach erosion is the movement or removal of an area of beach or cliff face by wave action, currents or wind. The frequency and ferocity of storms is another factor affecting coastal erosion. Even a single storm can remove a large amount of sand and ground cover from a beach, reducing its ability to act as a buffer between the water and the land behind it. Human beings can also play a weighty role in beach erosion. Diversion of streams and rivers and placement of buildings and roads can contribute to drainage problems miles away.Methods to remove it are:Soft Engineering· One of the main methods for controlling coastal erosion is the use of soft engineering options, which means replacing materials lost through erosion or the introduction of materials similar to those naturally occurring on the coastline. Sand, for instance, is commonly reintroduced to act as a buffer against continued erosion. Managed access to a beach and dedicated protection areas of a coastline are commonly used to preserve coastlines.Hard Engineering· Hard engineering techniques generally are not as environmentally friendly as soft forms of coastal erosion control, because hard techniques usually entail the installation of man-made structures that are incongruent with the natural features of the coastline. Hard engineering includes the introduction of riprap rock walls, in which large rocks are piled on the shoreline to resist the effects of surf and wind on cliff faces. Artificial reefs can also be constructed to reduce the effect of wave energy, while sloped rock walls can be built at steeper angles than riprap walls to hold back surges. Pipes are sometimes laid into cliffs to drain subsurface water from the rock.Planting· In many regions, the introduction of native plants, soils and sand can reduce the effects of coastal erosion. Lowering the number of man-made structures in an area subject to coastal erosion can significantly reduce the overall effects of this destructive force by maintaining the systems provided by nature to keep an ecosystem in balance.


A solid with a smooth face sharp edge and points is called an?

Polyhedron. It's any three-dimensional shape made up of flat faces, sharp edges (where two faces meet), and points (where three faces meet).
