Percolation affects movement of water underground because the water reaches an aquitard. For instance, the water sinks into the ground, making salts and minerals dissolve as they move through “the spaces between the soil particles.” Then, the water reaches an aquitard, which stops the water from flowing.

How are gravity and weight related?
weight is the effect caused by gravity. if gravity increases, so does your weight!
What is the effect of gravity in Melde's experiment?
Gravity affects the string by applying a force (dm).(g) on every particle of mass dm. Thereby, it produces a damping effect on the string.
What two things effect the magnitude of gravity?
Mass & distance.
Why do objects with more mass have greater weight?
weight is the effect of gravity acting on mass,the greater the mass the greater the effect on gravity will have on it therefore the greater the weight. eg. if the mass is 50kg and gravity is 10N the the weight is 500N,if the mass increases to 100kg the the weight would increase to 1000N
What is copper specific gravity?
Gravity is constant. It does not change based on the element, only the relative distance from the a specific body can reduce the effect of gravity (moving away from the earth lessens its gravitational pull on an object).
Does percolation work against gravity?
yes
Which force supplies the energy for percolation?
gravity and capillary forces
What is the downward movement of water through spaces in soil due to gravity?
Percolation.
What is the definition of percolation in the water cycle?
The movement of water through the soil and layers by gravity and capillary forces is called percolation. The water can also be passed through permeable rock by this process.
What does percolation mean in the water cycle?
the downward movement of water through spaces in soil due to gravity
What is it called when water soaks into the soil due to gravity?
That is usually called, "Percolation". The percolation rate, or just perc rate, indicates how fast the water soaks in. That in turn tells you a lot about the soil, itself.
What does percolation mean in earth science?
The downward movement of water through pores and other spaces in soil due to gravity.
What does percolation produce?
Percolation produces groundwater.
What effect does construction of building and roads have on percolation through the soil. Hence what effect does it have on water table?
that we can't tell .but the level of water table decreases
How does speed and acceleration effect gravity?
Speed or acceleration have no effect on gravity.
How do you spell percolation?
That is the correct spelling of the word "percolation."
What is percolation rate?
percolation rate of water is different in different types of soil . it is the highest in the sandy soil and least in the clayey soil. to calculate the percolation rate use this formula- percolation rate (ml/min)amount of water(ml)/percolation time percolation refers to the ability of the soil to absorb water or liquids
