There is no minimum velocity. If the temperature is below freezing point, the water will eventually freeze completely. The movement of the water makes the ice crystals small so they will not be noticed at first but, eventually, all the water will change to ice. This happens to Niagara falls.

What else can I help you with?
What if all of the water freezes in a canal what would happen to the fish?
Freezes too. It is very difficult for a canal to freeze because moving water is not likely to turn to ice
What should the minimum velocity of water under gravity be?
0 m/s (no motion)
What is the minimum water velocity needed in a stream to maintain the transportation of the smallest boulder?
The minimum water velocity needed to transport the smallest boulder is determined by the critical threshold velocity. This velocity is influenced by factors such as the size, shape, and weight of the boulder. In general, for very small boulders, velocities in the range of 0.5 to 1.0 meters per second are often sufficient to initiate transport.
Why is anti freeze used in vehicle's radiators?
plain water will freeze in winter causing engine trouble.
What is the approximate minimum water velocity required for sand particles with a diameter of 0.1 mm to be picked up and moved?
10 centimeters/second
Why does water instantly freeze?
Water does not freeze instantly..
What is the normal Velocity of water in a central heating system?
Normal velocity is between 0.4-1.0 m/s. Absolute minimum is 0,25 m/s and maximum should not exceed 1,5 m/s.
A student has arms of length 63 cm. What is the minimum angular velocity (in rads) at which a bucket of water can be swing to prevent spilling water The distance from the handle to the standard water?
The minimum angular velocity required to prevent spilling water is given by the equation ω = sqrt(g/L), where g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.81 m/s^2) and L is the length of the arms in meters (63 cm = 0.63 m). The distance from the handle to the center where the bucket is hanging does not affect this calculation. Thus, the minimum angular velocity can be calculated as ω = sqrt(9.81/0.63) ≈ 4.37 rad/s.
How does water get into a man made canal?
By definition, a canal is used to connect two bodies of water. The water in the canal comes from those bodies of water.
What is the minimum water velocity necessary to maintain movement of 0.1-centimeter-diameter particle in a stream?
The minimum water velocity required to keep a 0.1-centimeter-diameter particle suspended in a stream can be estimated using the Stokes' law for sedimentation. For small particles, the settling velocity is influenced by factors such as particle size, density, and the viscosity of the fluid. Generally, a velocity greater than the particle's settling velocity is needed to maintain suspension. Calculating the exact value would require specific details about the particle's density and the fluid's viscosity, but velocities typically range from a few centimeters per second for such small particles in water.
Does water flow along a canal as it does in a river?
Yes and no. The water has to be replenished at the highest point of the canal and the water flows down the canal but only during the operation of the canal's locks.
What freeze faster salt or water?
Water will freeze faster than salt water.
