From what i read its called "a wash" (i don't know that's what i read from other sites), or "precipitation". I'm probably wrong, so sorry if i am.

Where does the the river nile start?
Generally Lake Victoria is considered to be the source (start) of the Nile. On the northern edge of the lake, water pours over a waterfall, known as Ripon Falls, into a narrow opening which some people believe is the beginning of the River Nile. Ripon Falls may be the starting-point of the river, but the many streams that flow into Lake Victoria could claim to be the true source. Much of Lake Victoria is surrounded by mountains with streams tumbling down into the lake. The largest tributary of Lake Victoria is the Kagera river. The Kagera and its tributary the Ruvubu, with its headwaters in Burundi, is now considered to be the true source of the Nile. It is from here that the Nile is measured as the world's longest river.

Where is the speed of the flowing water in a river the slowest Explain-?
These are some things that cause the speed of water to slow down. Broad flat channels slow a river down, a rough channel will also slow the water down. Basically, anything that increases the surface area of a body of water, against which water flows will slow it down, this is due to the increase of friction. In addition, water flows slowest at the margins of a river, if the river is winding, water will flow slower at the inside curves.
