Prior to the mid 20th century, the Colorado River flowed continuously from the Rocky Mountains to the Gulf of California. Since
this time, several major projects have taken water away from the river's natural course One of these projects has been the
Colorado River Aqueduct
, which takes water from the Colorado river and transports it to the Los Angeles area for drinking water
Today, dunng many times of year, the Colorado River no longer reaches the Gulf of California
The dam pictured
below takes water from the Colorado River so it can be transported along the aqueduct On the night, a dried. up portion of the river in Baja California is shown
This example illustrates that
OA. human activities can vastly change how water flows along the Earth's surface.
ΠΠ.
humans are helpless to change the way that water flows along the Earth's surface.
OC. water flows in unpredictable ways and cannot be used for human purposes.
OD. a changing climate can bring floods to some areas and droughts to others

Calculate the heat capacity per object when the total energy is 4 quanta. (think of this in terms of increasing from 3.5 quanta of energy in the system to 4.5 quanta of energy in the system, if that were possible.) c4 = __ j/k/object

Acarpenter builds an exterior house wall with a layer of wood 2.9 cm thick on the outside and a layer of styrofoam insulation 2.3 cm thick on the inside wall surface. the wood has k=0.080w/(mβ
k), and the styrofoam has k= 0.010 w/(mβ
k). the interior surface temperature is 19.0 βc , and the exterior surface temperature is -15.0 βc . a.)what is the temperature at the plane where the wood meets the styrofoam? celsius b.)what is the rate of heat flow per square meter through this wall? /m^2
