Clay particles are very fine grained and light weight, so easily carried along by flowing water.

How does a river carry mud along with it?
ANSWER:Water will move anything that can be moved by the force of the water. Its called erosion. It can move the small particles of sand and dirt makind mud and larger objects like rocks or stones and trees as well. Water will move this group of particles and the result will be the eroding of the stream or river basin to deepen the waterway and deposit it in a delta at the end of the river. Water, even without the extra erosive particles can cut solid rock. It can also be due to rubbish being caried through the river
Do particles of air in a sound wave move up and down?
no, they move horizontally along the direction of the sound wave movement.
What happens to the particles in a spring when a longitudinal wave passes along it?
They move back and forth - in this case, along the direction in which the wave advanced.
In particles in the material move back and forth along the direction of wave motion?
The answer is a compressional wave (;
In what do the particles in the material move back and forth along the direction of wave motion?
compressional wave
How would a fast-flowing river be most likely to move sand-sized particles of sediment?
The particles would stay on the side of the bank and be known as a runoff.
