Explanation / Answer

40.A municipal water tower creates an elevated water table in the regional water system that causes water to flow freely in homes once the valves are open similar to artesian flow

Answer.(A)True

In artesian flow the water flows when subjected to positive pressure.They did not reqiured to be pumped as there is enough pressure.

41.Outwash is

(C)Well-sorted sediment deposited by glacial meltwater rivers

Outwash is the material carried away by meltwater from a glacier and finally deposited beyond the moraine.

42.Glacier will always advance from its source area if the rate of accumulation of snow and ice is ____________ the rate of loss of ice and snow

(B)Greater than

Advance will be there when the rate of accumualtion is greater than the rate of subsidence.

43.The change, as waves approach a beach, the rows of waves gradually bend to a direction more parallel to the shore.The change is called...............

(D)Wave refraction

In case of wave refraction waves tend to approach coastline parallel to the ahore and wave energy decreases with decrease in water depth.
