question 6

Multiple Choice

The basic exponential smoothing formula is:

• A) \(F _ { t } = F _ { t } + 1 + \alpha \left( A _ { t } - F _ { t } \right)\)
• B) \(F _ { t } + 1 = F _ { t } - 1 + \alpha \left( A _ { t } - F _ { t } \right)\)
• C) \(\mathrm { F } _ { \mathrm { t } + 1 } = \mathrm { F } _ { \mathrm { t } - 1 } + \alpha \left( \mathrm { A } _ { \mathrm { t } } - \mathrm { F } _ { \mathrm { t } } \right)\)
• D) \(F _ { t + 1 } = F _ { t } + \alpha \left( A _ { t } - F _ { t } \right)\)
• E) \(\mathrm { F } _ { \mathrm { t } } = \mathrm { F } _ { \mathrm { t } } + 1 + \alpha \left( \mathrm { A } _ { \mathrm { t } } - \mathrm { F } _ { \mathrm { t } } \right)\)

A general term for the downward movement of rock, soil, and debris on a slope due to gravity, often triggered by saturation, earthquakes, or erosion.

La Conchita

A small community in California known for being susceptible to landslides due to its geographic and geological condition.

Earth Flow

A form of mass wasting that involves the downslope movement of soil and rock material under the influence of gravity.

Rock Avalanche

A rapid, large-volume descent of rock debris downslope, often with little to no fluid motion involved.
