What else can I help you with?
What did Isaac Newton say sbout tides?
the moons gravity pulls on the ocean water as the earth revolves on its axes, causing tides
What happens to the potential energy of the water in a river as gravity pulls the water downhill?
Since potential energy is proportional to elevation, the potential energy of water gets less and less as it goes downhill.Its kinetic energy (based on velocity) may well increase, but the question asked about potential energy.
How does gravity effect percolation?
Percolation affects the movement underground because, when the water is passing through it dissolves all salt and minerals.
The specific gravity of a product can be found on the material data sheet. how do you know if a product will sink in water?
The specific gravity of water is unity. Anything with a specific gravity which is over unity will therefore sink in water.
Why does slope matter?
I am assume that you mean the slope of a graph. We find the local maximum and minimum of a graph by comparing the slope (the tangent to the curve) at each point. When the graph is reaching either a maximum or minimum, the slope becomes zero. This finding-the-zero-slope task is normally done with computer programming or Excel. Another use is that the change in slope indicates a change in the rate. Let us say we are plotting the water level in a river to see when the dam will be breached. If the slope keeps increasing, you can predict, at the present rate of change, when the water will overflow. If the slope of water keeps decreasing, you can predict, at the same rate, when do we run out of water. Using the slope for prediction needs to be done carefully -- how much do you trust the data and how long can you project into the future without being unrealistic. The chartists use the slope to predict the trend of stock prices. The government uses the slopes of different sets of data to plan policies. And so on. ==========================
What force moves water in a stream?
Gravity and the slope of the land combine to create the force that moves water in a stream. Gravity pulls the water downhill, and the slope of the land determines the direction and speed of the flow.
What happens when gravitiy pulls water down a slope?
Both kinetic and potential energy vanish.
How is a river potential energy changed into kinetic energy?
As gravity pulls water down a slope, the water's potential energy changes to kinetic energy that can do work.
How does water move on a slope and why does it move in that direction?
Water moves downhill on a slope due to gravity, creating a force that pulls it in that direction. The slope provides a pathway for the water to flow, with the steeper the slope, the faster the water moves. Additionally, the surface tension of water allows it to cling together and form streams or rivulets as it flows downhill.
The force that pulls everything downward causeing rain and soil to run down a slope?
Gravity is the force that pulls everything downward, causing rain and soil to run down a slope. This gravitational force is responsible for the movement of water and soil on Earth's surface.
Why is it possible for buoyancy to work if gravity pulls all bodies downward?
Gravity pulls the water down more than it pulls the boat down.
What force pulls water downhill?
Gravity is the force that pulls water downhill. Water flows downhill along the path of least resistance due to the pull of gravity towards the Earth's center.
Which force pulls you down when you are in water?
The force of gravity pulls you down when you are in water, just like when you are on land. The buoyant force from the water also acts on your body, helping to keep you afloat.
How does the water fall off a waterfall?
Gravity pulls it down
Why does water go down when poured?
gravity pulls the water down when it is poured
How does gravity relate to a steam's ability to erode and deposit materials?
Gravity pulls down the water, if there was no gravity the water would be floating in the air.
Why does a washcloth sink?
Gravity and weight. The washcloth is heavier than the water and gravity pulls it down.
