What are the causes of sedimentation in passion juice?
Sedimentation is a gravity driven process. Particles sediment due to gravity regardless of what medium they are in.
Which type of flow works in opposition to Ekman transport in a gyre?
Gravity driven circulation
Thermohaline circulation is driven by changes in?
The thermohaline circulation is driven by surface heat (insolaration) and freshwater flows. These change the density of the ocean's water and gravity does the work.
Why do we need to avoid low lying places during a volcanic eruption?
Some of the most dangerous products of volcanoes, mudflows and pyroclastic flows, are gravity-driven, so they will tend to stick to valley bottoms.
How is it possible for a single sedimentary rock to contain rock particles animal shells and minerals that crystalized from water?
The rock particles and animal shells are sediments that were transported, then deposited in the same location; as they subsequently were compacted by the weight of additional subsequent sediment deposits from above, the water between the sediment particles was driven out. As compaction drives the water out, minerals are precipitated from the remaining mineral laden solution which bind the animal shells and rock particles together, forming rock.

Why poiseuille equation not applied to turbulent flow?
Coz poiseuille eq is for poiseuille flow, which is a laminar flow, not turbulent flow. And it also need to be a fully developed , pressure driven flow.
Does gravity affect hurricanes?
Yes. Hurricanes are driven by convection in which warm air rises. Convection cannot occur without gravity.
How do the rocks take such interesting shapes?
This is caused by erosion.Erosion is a gravity driven process that moves solids (sediment, soil, rock and other particles) in the natural environment or their source and deposits them elsewhere. It usually occurs due to transport by wind, water, or ice; by down-slope creep of soil and other material under the force of gravity; or by living organisms, such as burrowing animals, in the case of bioerosion.
Which type of flow works in opposition to Ekman transport in a gyre?
Gravity driven circulation
What is the the water cycle driven by?
Mainly by solar energy and gravity. 2. By the energy from the sun.
Thermohaline circulation is driven by changes in?
The thermohaline circulation is driven by surface heat (insolaration) and freshwater flows. These change the density of the ocean's water and gravity does the work.
What is true of upwelling?
It is driven by temperature differences causing differences in density. It requires a gravity field.
What is the driving force behind all agents of erosion?
Gravity is the driving force behind all agents of erosion. If there is no gravity, rain will not fall and running water will not happen. Similarly, wind, glacial activity and waves are driven by gravity.
What caused circulations in deep water?
The movement of deep water in the ocean basins is by density driven forces and gravity.
Do all planets have creators?
No. Planets form by a process called accretion, which is driven by gravity. Nobody creates planets.
Which is the best petrol driven car for a family consisting of 5 members costing less than Rs 4 lakhs available in India today?
tata nano
