Which soil type has large grains and allows water to drain easily?
Sandy soil has large grains and allows water to drain easily due to its coarse texture and good drainage properties.
What is An impermeable layer underground that holds groundwater?
An impermeable layer underground that holds groundwater is called an aquifer. Aquifers are underground layers of rock or sediment that are saturated with water and have limited permeability, preventing water from easily flowing through them.
What holds more water clay or sand?
sand
Why do sedimentary rocks wear away faster than others?
Sedimentary rocks tend to erode easily compared to other types of rocks as the grains within them are farther apart than the "grains" in, let's say, igneous rocks. As a result of this, the "grains" can be easily crumble. An example of this is sand.
Are sedimentary rocks easily eroded?
YES! Sedimentary rocks, like sandstone, limestone and chalk can easily be eroded. This is because the grains in them (different to particles) are further apart to the grains in rocks like igneous rocks. This means that the grains can easily be crumbled off, and you get left with sand.
Do big grains erode faster or small grains?
Small grains erode faster than big grains because small grains have a larger surface area relative to their volume, allowing more contact with flowing water or wind that can wear them away more quickly. Additionally, small grains are often lighter and more easily transported by wind or water, further contributing to their erosion.
Which soil type has large grains and allows water to drain easily?
Sandy soil has large grains and allows water to drain easily due to its coarse texture and good drainage properties.
What holds the least amount of water?
A sponge holds the least amount of water compared to other household items. It is designed to absorb and release water easily.
Which side of a penny holds more water?
The heads side of a penny holds more water because it has a slightly raised edge that creates a small barrier preventing the water from spilling over the sides. The tails side is flat and the water can easily spill off the edges.
Why does salt not dissolve quickly with water?
salt does not disolve quickly in water because all the little grains are so small the have more suface area than air bubbles therefore the water takes longer to get into the grains of salt.
Does water pass through sand?
The water molecules are far smaller than the spaces between the sand grains and can easily slip through, gravity pulls the water down.
What is a small hollow which holds water for a short period of time called?
pöl
How come water passes through sand better than clay?
because sand has small grains and allows water to travel through it. Clay has smaller grains than sand and doesn't allow water to travel through it quickly.
How does sand stop a water?
Sand can stop water from flowing through by creating a barrier due to its dense and compact nature. The small particles in sand pack tightly together, which reduces the ability of water to pass through easily. The interlocking grains of sand create a barrier that slows down or prevents water from flowing through.
What helps the duckweed float on water?
duckweed is small and can float easily
How are aquifer and reservoir the same how are they different?
A reservoir is a big land mass that holds water "supplies" an aquifer is the same thing is just small and you could say that it purifies the water that it holds.
What is An impermeable layer underground that holds groundwater?
An impermeable layer underground that holds groundwater is called an aquifer. Aquifers are underground layers of rock or sediment that are saturated with water and have limited permeability, preventing water from easily flowing through them.
