Surface flow is when water from the rain runs on the surface into the ocean.
Surface flow and overland flow are related but not exactly the same. Surface flow generally refers to water that moves across the ground surface, including both overland flow and water from other sources like melting snow or rainfall that doesn't infiltrate the soil. Overland flow specifically describes the movement of water over the land surface when rainfall exceeds the infiltration capacity of the soil, leading to runoff. Thus, while all overland flow is surface flow, not all surface flow is classified as overland flow.
No. Magma flows to the surface and becomes lava.
Surface tension affects how liquid molecules interact at the surface, causing liquids to form droplets or spread out. Viscosity is a measure of a liquid's resistance to flow, where high viscosity liquids flow slower than low viscosity liquids. Both properties can impact how liquids flow and behave in different situations.
Surface tension in metal casting affects the flow and wetting of the molten metal on the mold surface. High surface tension can lead to poor flow and incomplete filling of the mold cavities, resulting in defects in the casting. Lowering surface tension through the addition of surfactants can improve the casting process by promoting better wetting and flow of the metal.
A volcano or volcanic vent is an opening in the earth's surface that allows melted rock (lava) to flow out.

The open channel flow has a free surface whereas the pipe flow has a closed surface.
The open channel flow has a free or rather open surface whereas the pipe flow has a closed surface.
They believe that it is from water flow.
The surface material of a fluid can impact its flow rate by affecting the level of friction between the fluid and the boundary. A rough surface can increase friction, reducing flow rate, while a smooth surface can decrease friction, allowing for a higher flow rate. Additionally, the surface material can also influence the formation of boundary layers and turbulent flow, further impacting flow rate.
Fluid that it attracted to a nearby surface and remains attached even when the surface curves away from the initial flow direction.
Another name for surface runoff is overland flow.
No. Magma flows to the surface and becomes lava.

Adhesion can affect flow rate by increasing resistance, causing the fluid to flow slower as it sticks to the surface it comes in contact with. This can be observed with low adhesion surfaces, where fluids flow faster due to reduced interaction with the surface.
