What Most rivers curve or meander. Water travels more slowly on the outside of the curve and more quickly on the inside of the curve Which statement is true?
A river's current slow down and tend to meander across a flat valley floor. The river's current is faster on the outside of the bend, and slower on the inside.
Why does sediment erode on the outside curve of a stream?
Rivers "carry" their sediment load only as long as the velocity of the water remains high enough to create sufficient turbulence to keep the particles "stirred up". Once a river loses its velocity and the stirring effect of the turbulence subsides the sediment load can no longer remain suspended in the water. At this point gravity takes over and the river begins to "drop" its sediments in a process named deposition.Now a river going around a curve is like two tires at each end of an axle going around a curve. The tire on the outside of the curve has to move faster than the tire on the inside of the curve since it has a longer radius of travel. So too the water in the river moves faster at the outside of the curve than the water inside the curve. Between the two different water velocities the deposition is going to occur on the inside curve of the river where the water loses its velocity.Conversely, the opposite of deposition which is erosion will take place at the outside of the curve in the river.
A big curve of coastline is called a?
P)
The bay formed by a long curve in a coastline is called?
A bight
What are legs that curve out called starting with ba?
Legs that curve out are called several things including bandiness or bandy-leg.Probably the most common is bow-legs or bowed leggs
Which side of the stream is shallower the inside curve or outside?
Since the outside curve has a higher velocity, it has more erosion meaning the inside curve has a slower velocity more deposition causing it to be shallower. The outside curve is deep.
Compare the rate of water flow on the inside of a meander curve with that on the outside of the curve?
No
What are synonyms of elbow?
the 'outside' of the elbow is also called the 'wenis', and the 'inside' can also be called the antecubital. Other synonyms can also include: joint, angle, curve

Leftward shift in the supply curve?
A leftward shift in the supply curve would mean that some outside (Macro-economic) or inside (Micro-economic) event occurred that caused the supplier of the good to not be willing to make as many at a lower price. The price of the good/service will increase. The new price will be at the new (higher) intersect of the supply and demand curves (equilibrium).
How do you Illustrate on Production Possibility Frontier diagram?
The PPF graph is a bowed out curve. The x-axis being quantity produced of one product/service and the y-axis being another quantity produced of a product/service. Any point on the curve is productive efficiency. Outside of the curve is unattainable and inside of the curve is inefficient.
What is a straight line that intersects a curve?
A straight line that intersects a circle or curve at two points, but which has both end points outside the circle or curve is called a secant. A straight line that links two points on a circle or curve is called a chord. A straight line which touches a circle or curve at one point is called a tangent. A straight line that cuts a circle or curve at one point is a straight line.* For moving diagrams see Related links below this box.
What is a positive demand curve?
demand curve tends to be downward sloping (negative) for normal goods. for goods that are perceived to be of superior value to customer (like it serves as a status quo), the higher the price, the higher the quantity demanded. hence, giving a positive demand curve. there are called the veblen goods. Giffen goods also has a positive demand curve.
Explain what happens when the demand curve intersects with the supply curve?
explain what happens inside curve sample
What makes a river wined?
The current is faster on the outside of a bend than on the inside. The outside bank will erode and the inside will fill in. Also depends on the rock make up. In this way, in a uniform soil/rock, a river will follow a sine-type curve along its flatland basin etched out over millions of years and the sine curve will advance down the current flow line.
What is a mountain curve called?
Ess curve
