No, as their sources are in steep mountains, the water runs more quickly (although there is less of it).
Mature rivers - Travel slowly Young rivers - Travel fast Old rivers - Travel VeRy SlOwLy Apex :D
It means something that makes travel difficult. Like mountains or a fast river. Or you have no legs, or you are four years old, or you have four small children. Or no money.
The speeds of river vary so much, even on individual river, that any attempt to answer this would devolve into nonsense.
Most of the passenger river boat travels at 35 knots per hour.
A mature river, since the water is cold, normally travels around 10-25mph.
The speeds of river vary so much, even on individual river, that any attempt to answer this would devolve into nonsense.
A young river is very active. It is still at the upper course. It moves at a characteristic high speed that enhances its active down-cutting and under-cutting. Its competence is very high due to its speed. An old river on the other hand is characterised by its materials and also the topography of its course. The old river has lost its competence due to the gradient of its course. The speed is low compared to a young river.
The speed at which water travels in a river can vary depending on factors such as the river's width, depth, and slope. On average, water in a river can flow at speeds ranging from a few centimeters per second to several meters per second.
River travel was a slow and risky way to travel. Traveling by boat limited the person to the direction of the river and its temperament. If the river was high and wild then travel may not be able to be made.
Ok so I need a ton of info fast. Could you help a little 10 year old girl out?
Yes, they travel some fast!
very fast
