What happens when gravitiy pulls water down a slope?
Both kinetic and potential energy vanish.
How slope of the area affect water in watershed?
The force of gravity keeps water flowing down hill.Where slopes are steep,the water in streams and rivers flows very fast. :) <3
Which is the direction that a river flows?
The general direction a river flows is down. The water responds to the pull of gravity, and it is pulled down - whichever way that happens to be (north, south, east, west, or whatever). Water flows downhill. Simple and easy. Nothing tricky about it.
How does the slope of a hill affect the runoff of a surface?

What happens to a line when the slope is negative?
it goes down
Why do mountains and high land form boundaries of a watershed?
Water flows down hill toward the lowest point, the sea. Water flows away from the highest point following slope to the lowest point. Example... Water on the east side of a hill will likely stay on the east side
Does material travel faster when the river is flowing down a steep slope or across flat land?
it flows faster on a steep slope
Do rivers have a slope?
Yes, rivers have slopes. All rivers have land around them that is at a higher elevation that the river itself. When it rains, the rainwater flows down the slope and into the river.
What happens to rainfall when the ground is saturated?
Water naturally goes with the downgrade so when the water can't go into the ground it flows down resulting in what we call a flash flood.
What happens when gravity pulls water down a slope?
The water runs down hill. That's why all rivers lead to the sea.
When water flows down hill into a stream. the stream flows into a lake and water evaporates from the lake?
Yes, it is correct.
What happens to the speed and acceleration of a ball rolling down an irregular slope?
The answer will depend on the shape of the slope, and the trajectory that the ball follows.
