How do they keep water from flowing down the steep mountain side?

By making a water dam, so that water can't go down.
Dams and flumes prevent the rapid loss of this valuable resource: water is life. Live long, and well with water, from the well if necessary.

Does material travel faster when the river is flowing down a steep slop or across flat land?
Material will travel faster in a river flowing down a steep slope. As the water slows down, the material will also slow down.
Is there a word for the small stream of water flowing southward down a mountain?
I know of no special name for southerly flowing streams. 'Draining in a southerly direction' would perhaps be a description.
What is mud flowing?
it is mud made of ash and water flowing down a volcano side at 100-200 mph and it can be over 400 degrees hot
What are the purposes of a runoff in the water cycle?
A runoff is when water flows down from the water into a water body such as an ocean. I do k=not think it has a purpose however it could be to get water of the mountain.
What is a mountain breeze?
a mountain breeze flows down a mountain and into a valley.

How does the of a hill affect the runoff of surface water?
The force of gravity keeps water flowing down hill.Where slopes are steep,the water in streams and rivers flows very fast. :) <3

What is an example of flowing freshwater?
A mountain stream, or a river flowing lower down in the valley.
What is spring melt?
In the spring the snow melts sending huge amounts of water flowing down the mountain in streams and rivers.

Where is the speed of the flowing water in a river the slowest?
ocean
Where is the speed of flowing water in a river the slowest explain?
A mountain stream will often flow quickly as the gradient is steep. Lower down in the valley, the gradient is level and the width between the river banks is greater, so accommodating the greater volume of water. The speed of flow is therefore naturally reduced as the steepness of the gradient lessens.
A deep narrow valley with steep sides that sometimes has a stream or river flowing through it is a?
the river running through rock wear it down into deep valley with the steep sides what is it called
