What makes the size of the pebbles smaller downstream?
As pebbles are transported downstream by the flowing water, they collide with each other and with other debris, causing them to break into smaller fragments. This process is known as attrition and leads to the gradual decrease in pebble size as they travel downstream. Additionally, smaller pebbles are also more easily carried by the current, allowing them to be transported further downstream.
What most likely causes pebbles in a stream to erode?
Pebbles in a stream are most likely eroded by the continuous flow of water, which exerts force on the surfaces of the pebbles. As water flows over and around them, it carries away small particles through abrasion and hydraulic action. Additionally, the movement of other sediment and debris can contribute to the wear and smoothing of the pebbles over time. This process is part of the natural cycle of erosion and sediment transport in river systems.
What is the covering of coarse particles left on the surface after the finer particles that are carried away by wind and running water?
The covering of coarse particles left on the surface after finer particles are carried away by wind and running water is called "desert pavement". It forms a layer of tightly packed pebbles or cobbles that helps protect the underlying soil from further erosion and weathering.
What planet does not get colder when further away from the sun?
Venus does not get colder when further away from the sun because its thick atmosphere traps heat, creating a runaway greenhouse effect. This results in Venus having a very high surface temperature, despite being further away from the sun than Mercury.
Has any one been near Venus?
No. No astronauts have gone further away than the moon. Venus is much further away from us than that.
Why are the pebbles at the top of the beach bigger than the ones at the bottom?
The small pebbles are more likely to fall through the gaps between bigger pebbles than the other way around.
Is Neptune further away and smaller than venus?
neptune is futher away from venus but much bigger than it.
Is 0.087 bigger than 87?
87 is further away from zero (0) than 0.087
Which on is bigger 0.6 or 0.5 and why?
You must be stupid. 0.6 because it is further away from 0, thus causing it to be "bigger." Think before you ask.
Why does the moon seem bigger than any star?
because stars are further away than the moon so that way the moon looks bigger
According to linear perspective people and objects appear to get?
They appear to seem smaller the further away they are,and bigger the closer they get.
What is minus 5 or 4 bigger?
minus 4 is bigger because minus 5 is further away from naught that minus 4 is
What is a surface made of pebbles and small broken rocks?
Desert pavement results when fine sand and soil is blown away by wind or washed away by rain leaving behind only pebbles.
Which number is bigger -0.234 or -0.324?
It depends on your definition of "bigger". If "bigger" means closer to positive infinity, i.e. numerically greater, then -0.234 is bigger than -0.324. If "bigger means further away from zero, i.e. having a larger absolute value, then -0.324 is bigger thatn -0.234
Are the stars further than the moon?
Yes. They look smaller but they are bigger. They only look smaller because they are further away.
Do males and females look the same?
The male pelecan is often bigger in size but if looked at from further away you would not tell the difference.
Why does the sun look the same size as the moon although it is many millions times bigger?
Because it's further away from the Earth.
