What can a stream flowing at a velocity of 100 cm sec can transport?
A stream flowing at a velocity of 100 cm/sec can transport a variety of materials, including sediments, organic matter, and debris. The capacity to carry these loads depends on the stream's flow rate, depth, and the size and density of the transported materials. Larger and heavier particles may settle to the bottom, while finer sediments can be suspended in the water column. Overall, faster streams can carry more substantial loads compared to slower ones.
Sediments accumulate in the Atlantic at approximately 1 cm kyr-1 How thick are the sediments approximately 500 km from the ridge crest when the spreading rate is 2.5cm yr-1?
500 km = 50 x 106 cm.50 x 106 cm / 2.5 cmyr-1 = 20 x 106 years or twenty million years.If it takes 1000 years to form 1 cm of sediment, then the thickness of the sediment in cm is:20x106 / 1x103Thickness of sediment = 20,000 cm or 200m.
What are facts about pebbles?
pebbles are sediments that range in size from 0.2 cm to 6.4 cm.
Where the stream velocity decrease from 300 to 200 cm which size sediment will be deposited?
When the stream velocity decreases from 300 to 200 cm/s, larger and heavier sediments, such as gravel and coarse sand, are likely to be deposited first, as they require higher velocities to remain suspended. As the velocity continues to decrease, finer sediments like silt and clay may also settle out. Ultimately, the sediment size deposited will depend on the specific velocity threshold for each sediment type, with larger particles settling out at higher velocities and finer particles settling out at lower velocities.
What is the largest sediment that can be transported by a stream that has a velocity of 125 cm per sec?
The largest sediment that can be transported by a stream is determined by the stream's velocity and the sediment's size and weight. Generally, a stream with a velocity of 125 cm per second can transport larger particles, such as gravel or small boulders, depending on factors like flow turbulence and sediment density. However, specific calculations using the Einstein-Brown equation or other sediment transport formulas can provide a more precise size estimate. Typically, at this velocity, the largest sediment might be around 2 to 4 millimeters in diameter.
What type of sedimentary rock would form from sediment 0.0002 cm in diameter?
Sediments of 0.0002 cm in diameter would likely form siltstone, a type of sedimentary rock composed primarily of silt-sized particles. Siltstone has a fine-grained texture, as silt particles are smaller than sand but larger than clay.
What is the slowest stream velocity needed to maintain 001 cm particles downstream?
To prevent particles of 0.01 cm from settling downstream, a minimum stream velocity of 0.02 m/s is required, based on Stokes' law calculations for settling velocity.
What is the approximate minimum stream velocity needed to keep a 6.4-cm-diameter particle in motion?
hey....
How tall is Rio?
Given the category and the fact that 'rio' means - river / brook / stream. The answer to your question is that a river does not have a 'height'.
Which groups of particles sizes can be transported by a stream that has a velocity equal to 20 cms?
A stream with a velocity of 20 cm/s can transport particles up to fine sand size (0.0625 - 2 mm). Larger particles such as gravel and boulders would require a faster flow velocity to be transported.
What is the volume of of a prism that has dimension are 2 cm 3 cm 2 cm?
Which dimensions are which? For a base of 2 cm, height of 3 cm, and length of 2 cm it would be 5 cm^3. It would be the same if the base were 3 cm, but if the length were 3 cm it would instead be 6 cm^3.
What is the approximate minimum stream velocity needed to kepp a 6.4 cm diamiter particle in motion?
The minimum stream velocity needed to keep a 6.4 cm diameter particle in motion is dependent on factors such as the density of the particle and the fluid, as well as other environmental conditions. However, as a general guideline, the velocity required can be estimated to be around 2-3 cm/s for particles of this size.
