Water or wind carrying sediment slows down, causing the force of gravity to overcome the force of the water or wind, resulting in the sediment dropping and settling to the ground or surface. This process is known as sedimentation and occurs when the velocity of the water or wind decreases, leading to the deposition of the sediment.

Why is my water heater making a crackling noise?

Your water heater may be making a crackling noise due to sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank. When the water is heated, the sediment can create pockets of air that make a crackling sound as they rise to the surface. This is a common issue that can be resolved by flushing the tank to remove the sediment.
