How are tributaries created?
tributaries are created by water eroding rocks to make a stream or river
How does the gradient of river affect it flow?
The gradient of a stream affects the speed of the water as it moves downstream. The steeper the gradient, the faster the water moves.
Does gradient of a stream increase or decrease downstream?
Decrease. The source of the river is usually in a mountainous area with a steep gradient.
What is the primary difference between the Mississippi river and the Colorado river?

How gradient affects a stream erosive energy?
a stream or river that has low gradient has less energy for erosion

What is a youthful stream?
A youthful river is a river with a steep gradient that has very few tributaries and flows quickly. Its channels erode deeper rather than wider.
How does the gradient of a river affect its flow?
The gradient of a river is mostly flat or downhill which means that as the water flows it is affected by gravity. The steeper the gradient goes downhill, the more gravity will affect the water which will make the water flow faster (increases the velocity).
Where is the river Thames eroding the land?
no where!!
Can you put eroding in a sentence?
I watched as the rushing rapids of the river was eroding away the river rocks, making them dull and round. IDK
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.
