Does deposition happen more when moving water speeds up or slows down?
When water slows down. When water slows down it no longer has the ability to carry a lot of sediment and so deposition occurs
What is it called when a fast moving stream slows down and deposits sediment?
It is called deposition. It occurs as friction or gravity overcomes the force of the moving water.
The process in which moving sedimentary material slows down or from ice that melts?
The process in which moving sedimentary material slows down or from ice that melts is known as deposition. Most metamorphic sedimentary rocks are formed through this process.

Are old rivers the slowest moving rivers?
Old rivers are indeed slower than new rivers. This is because, over time, they tend to spread out more, flowing over flatter land, which slows them down.
When a river slows down what does it deposit?
It drops the material. This is called deposition :)
What is is the special force which stops things moving or which slows down moving things?
friction stops things from moving and slows it down
Old rivers are the slowest moving rivers. true or false?
Although rivers don't actually, physically move themselves, but the water in them does. And its false.
How does a rivers current slow down?
A rivers current slows down when it runs into a bend.
What slows down a moving object?
friction
What is alluvial deposition?
Alluvial sediment:is clay or silt or gravel carried by rushing streams and deposited where the stream slows down. Alluvial deposition refers to this process.by which alluvium is thus deposited.
What is the process that occurs when water slows down and particles of rock and sand are laid down in new locations?
Deposition...
