Mount St. Helens erupted on May 18‚ 1980. The volcano‚ located in southwestern Washington‚ used to be a beautiful symmetrical cone about 9‚600 feet (3‚000 meters) above sea level. The eruption‚ which removed the upper 1‚300 feet (396 meters) of the summit‚ left a horseshoe-shaped crater and a barren wasteland. Today the land is healing‚ having recovered its natural beauty‚ but the landscape has been permanently altered. Native Americans in the Pacific Northwest called the mountain "Louwala-Clough"

To what extent do you agree that river landforms can be classified as either erosional or depositional? Many different landforms are made by either deposition or erosion and there are some cases where they can be classified as both. Erosional landforms are caused by erosion which is the breaking down and transportation of particles from one area to another. Depositional landforms are made when particles are deposited somewhere else. In my opinion I think that river landforms can be classified

The law of conservation of momentum states that momentum can neither be created nor destroyed; the total momentum of any closed system must remain the same. Momentum is mass times velocity. Thus‚ a ten pound object moving at 5 meters per second has the same momentum as a 2 pound object moving at 25 meters per second (for example). In order to alter the motion of one object‚ you have to transfer the momentum to another object. Now‚ this principle is not intuitively obvious‚ because we are constantly
