Since silt weighs less than sand it is more likely to be carried by the wind. Sand is carried over the dunes a few grains at a time and eventually all the sand will slowly be carried away.

When the wind blows across the mountian, it picks up little bits and pieces of sedimant and drops them in a different spot. Eventully the picked up sediment could build a new mountian, most of the time it take 100reds of years
A deposit of rock particles that are scratched and unsorted has most likely been transported and deposited by glacial ice.
The type of sediment that undergoes the most compaction as it lithifies to sedimentary rocks is marine mud. Lithification refers to the process wherein sediments compact under pressure.

Hydrocarbon fuels are energy dense, easily transported, relatively cheap.
That refers to electrical energy.
Yes, you can run away, but as a juvenile you'll most likely be reported missing, picked up and transported back home.
Most agricultural products either lose weight and bulk in processing, meaning they can be transported more cheaply after they have been processed, or they are perishable and so can be more easily transported in processed form.
Goods could be easily transported to the other side hence boosting the economy.

Cargo is items that are transported by ship, aircraft, or by motor vehicle. Most cargo is moved in containers that can transfer easily from ships to rail and truck.

Sediment is a naturally occurring material that is broken down by processes of weathering and erosion, and is subsequently transported by the action of wind, water, or ice, and/or by the force of gravity acting on the particle itself.Sediments are most often transported by water (fluvial processes), wind (aeolian processes) and glaciers. Beach sands and river channel deposits are examples of fluvial transport and deposition, though sediment also often settles out of slow-moving or standing water in lakes and oceans. Desert sand dunes and loess are examples of aeolian transport and deposition. Glacial moraine deposits and till are ice-transported sediments.
Longshore Currents transport most sediment along the shore of beaches, according to my science book. .
sediments made of larger particles will have larger spaces between them, and thus allow greater fluid flow.
The transport of sediment depends on its grain size and the original location where it was produced. Terrigenous sediment can be transported to the deep sea via rivers or by wind. Material transported by rivers most commonly ends up deposited on thecontinental margin, the shallow portions of the ocean that are within several hundred kilometers of land. When continental margin deposits accumulate fast and get overly steep, or when an earthquake or storm causes the sediment to be resuspended, turbidity currents provide additional transport out to the deep sea. The resuspension of the sediment into the bottom water causes it to be more dense than the overlying water, and thus these turbidity currents flow downslope to the more distant ocean basin -humberto <3
