What are the three forces that carry sediment?
Wind, water, and ice.
What forces carry sediment?
Air, ice, gravity, and water.
What are some examples of erosion and deposition?
for erosion it would sediment transporting by water and for deposition would be sand dunes cause wind can carry sediment and deposits on the sand dune the forces that sediment can be carry is throught wind, water, ice, and gravity. I hope this helps you :D
What are three forces that can carry sediment?
Wind, water, and gravity, ice (i.e Glaciers with rocks frozen in them.) -Wind- Picks up sediment and blows it to another place - Water, Carries sediment with... flowing water - Gravity- Making sediments fall down (I.e landslides) - Ice - Rocks with ice in them. (i.e Glaciers with rocks frozen in them.) Falls off when thawed.
The smaller the load a river has the more sediment it can carry?
The smaller the load a river has the more sediment it can carry is false. When the river has more energy, it is able to carry a larger load, therefore more sediment.
Can the smaller the load a river has the more sediment it can carry?
The smaller the load a river has the more sediment it can carry is false. When the river has more energy, it is able to carry a larger load, therefore more sediment.
What is sediment of different sized particles left by ice from glaciers?
the correct answer is till. this sediment, deposited directly from glacier ice is till.
Does fast moving water carry more or less sediment?
Fast-moving water can carry more sediment than slow-moving water.
What can sediment can be carried by?
Water, wind, or ice.
What transports sediments?
water, wind, ice, etc. do transport sediment. lava does not transport sediment
What do rivers Carry?
Rock sediment and sometimes trash
Does ice carry germs?
Ice can carry germs.
