Why do rivers start flowing slowly?
because that is when the water will start flowing properly.
Does a river deposit more sand when it is flowing quickly or when it is flowing slowly?
When it is flowing slowly
Why do gentle sloping wide rivers have more meanders than steep fast-flowing rivers?
Gentle sloping wide rivers have more meanders than steep fast-flowing rivers because the slower flow velocity allows sediment to be deposited along the riverbanks, leading to the formation of point bars and cut banks, which in turn create meanders. In contrast, steep fast-flowing rivers have higher erosive power, which prevents the formation of stable meanders as the river cuts straight through the landscape more efficiently. Additionally, the higher energy in steep rivers results in less deposition and more erosion, leading to a more straight channel morphology.
What is the difference between west flowing rivers and east flowing rivers?
east flowing rivers drains into bay of Bengal and west flowing rivers drains into Arabian sea,east flowing rivers make delta at the mouth of te sea and west flowing rivers make estuary at the moutj of the sea, area drained by east flowing rivers are greater and area drained by west flowing rivers are shoarter than that of west flowing rivers and ex. of east flowing rivers are godavari,Krishna,etc. and ex. of west flowing rivers are narmada and tapi.
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.
Do most South American rivers flow into the Pacific or Atlantic Oceans?
With the Mississippi River flowing into the Gulf of Mexico and all eastern rivers flowing directly into the Atlantic, the answer is Atlantic. The Atlantic wins by a slim margin! More rivers in the United States flow into the Atlantic Ocean.The answers is the Atlantic Ocean.
Minnesota or Wisconsin has more rivers?
Minnesota has more rivers than Wisconsin, with over 12,000 rivers and streams flowing through the state. The Mississippi River, which is one of the longest rivers in North America, originates in Minnesota. While Wisconsin also boasts many rivers, including parts of the Fox and Wisconsin Rivers, Minnesota's extensive river network surpasses that of its neighbor.
Can more slowly flowing water carry larger sediments?
Yes, more slowly flowing water can carry larger sediments, but only up to a certain point. Generally, faster flowing water has the energy needed to lift and transport larger particles. However, in some cases, slower flowing water can carry larger sediments if they are suspended or if the flow is consistent enough to gradually move them. The sediment size that water can transport depends on the flow velocity, sediment characteristics, and water's viscosity.
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.
What river flows northward from kazakhstan into russia?
There are quite a few rivers that flow northward from Kazakhstan into Russia. Three of the most know of these rivers include the Tobol River, the Ishim River, and the Irtysh River. All of these rivers originate in Kazakhstan and flow northward.
What are esturies?

What does a river confluence mean?
