What will erode earth material faster regular water or salt water?

Salt water will erode earth material much more quicker.


What is load and how does it affect erosion?

Stream Load is the amount of material a stream can hold as it flows. As a stream flows it causes erosion, and this erosion is carried about as material in the stream. As too much is eroded, the extra material will fall to the bottom, or push it's way to the sides.


What happens when the speed of a stream increases?

Things that would cause a stream to move faster would be how large the stream is, how much material is in the stream and how much of a slope the stream is at. Things blocking the stream would also cause it to move slower.


What Besides gradient and load what else affects stream?

Flow velocity..answer 2 Sometimes the rock type in a stream basin is not uniform. e,g, there could be a volcanic sill in the catchment. In this case, the harder volcanic material could cut through the bed material much faster than if it were uniform.


What does the jet stream have to do with the volcanic eruption in iceland?

What determines how large a star a star will become?

Initially it is a question of how much material was present in the disk that collapsed to form the star. Subsequently, it may be affected by collisions with nearby stars.


How can water cut some of the strongest material on earth?

Water cannot be easily compressed. Water at very high pressures can be used to cut steel and concrete. Water can also erode stone and concrete, due to air bubbles in the water. As the air bubbles collapse, the water surges in to fill the space left, and produces a tiny hammer-like blow to the stone or concrete the water is washing over. Repeated several trillion times a day for years, the water will eventually erode the much harder material.

What would erode quicker soil or concreate?

definitely soil. Concrete is much, much, much more solid than soil, so concrete lasts a lot longer than soil. Soil erodes very quickly because it is not very solid. Anything from a raindrop to a gust of wind can erode soil. Concrete, not so much.
