A sweeping bend is a gradual curve or change in direction in a road or track that allows vehicles to navigate smoothly without sharp turns or disruptions in speed. This design feature is often seen in highways, racetracks, and cycling routes to improve traffic flow and safety.
A meander is a curve or bend in a stream or river.
A comb can bend a stream of water through the process of electrostatics. When the comb is rubbed against a material, it acquires a static electric charge. This charge can then attract or repel the polar molecules in the water, causing the stream to bend toward the charged comb. The effect is most noticeable when the comb is brought close to the stream without touching it.
Meander.
A curve in a stream channel is called a meander. Meanders are caused by the flow of water eroding the outside of a bend and depositing sediment on the inside, leading to a winding pattern in the channel. Meanders are a natural feature of rivers and streams and play a vital role in shaping the landscape.

Contour lines will bend and point upstream to form a "V" shape when crossing a stream valley on a topographic map. The V-shape indicates the direction of the stream flow and shows the gradual slope of the valley.
it would bend towards the point of origin or where it starts.
It is called South Bend because it is at the 'south bend' of the st. Joe River.
Curves in canyons formed by a down-cutting stream are called meanders. These meanders develop as the stream erodes the outer banks of the river bend while depositing sediment on the inner banks, creating a sinuous pattern. Over time, meanders can grow more pronounced and may eventually lead to the formation of oxbow lakes if they become isolated from the main flow of the stream.
