Flowing water can sort particles based on their size, shape, and density. As water moves downstream, it has different velocities and energy levels that can selectively transport larger, heavier particles while leaving behind smaller, lighter ones. This process is known as sorting, where sediments are organized based on their characteristics.

What is water flowing over a cliff called?
Water flowing over a cliff is called a waterfall.
Water flowing downhill across the surface of Earth is called?
Water flowing downhill across the surface of the Earth is called runoff.
What factors affect the force of flowing water?
The force of flowing water is affected by factors such as the velocity of the water, the volume of water flow, the density of the water, and the slope of the surface over which it is flowing. These factors collectively determine the kinetic energy of the water, which influences its force and ability to erode or transport materials.
How does the speed of flowing water affect its ability to erode?
Faster flowing water has more energy, which increases its ability to erode. The kinetic energy of the water particles allows them to pick up and transport sediment more effectively, leading to greater erosion. Conversely, slower flowing water has less erosive power.
What is a flowing water that is confined to a narrow depression in the Earth?
A flowing water that is confined to a narrow depression in the Earth is called a stream or a creek. These water bodies typically have defined channels that carry water downstream due to gravity.

What is a land form that is water flowing from the ground?
Water flowing out of the ground is a spring. An artesian well is one example of water under pressure flowing out of the ground.
What dangers are rivers made of?
stones and fast flowing water can block the water from flowing
Water flowing over a diff?
Water flowing over a cliff will form a waterfall.
What Cloths Did The Romans Were?
A sort of toga, even though that is Greek, they are very similar. Flowing cloth robes sort of.
Where does flowing-water originate?
Ultimately all water flowing on the surfaces of the Earth originates as rain water or snow.
Which feature is most likely to have been formed by flowing water?
