>>12082231I have a geology degree and I promise you there are problems in geology that cannot be solved by physics. The problems are far too complex.
One simple one which has existed for thousands of years is this one.
It rains X amount in a year. How much water will be available in a river for farmers to use downstream?
To answer this question with physics you need to know:
The width of every meter of the river
The surface angle of every meter of the river
The depth of every meter of the river
The geology of every meter of the riverbed
The groundwater recharge of every meter of the riverbed
The plant life in every meter of the river
The plant life on the shoreline of every meter of the river
The rate of every meter of evapotranspiration
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EvapotranspirationWhich is effected by the amount of sunlight the river receives each day and the air humidity around the river every day
Remember every bird that takes a drink in your river and every teenager fishing in your river will alter it's total volume.
Good luck physics fags.
