How would you calculate the air velocity to move a drop of liquid into the air stream?
Lots or aeronautic equations, but you'd need a whole lot more data than you have given.
If a boat can go 20 miles per hours in still water and can go six miles downstream and 3 miles up stream in the same time how fast is the river?
assume river velocity = X mph boat velocity = 20 mph time to go 6 miles downstream = T1 time to go 3 miles upstream = T2 distance = time * velocity downstream: 6 mi = T1 * (boat velocity + river velocity) upstream: 3 mi = T2 * (boat velocity - river velocity) 6 = T1 * ( 20 + X ) 3 = T2 * ( 20 - X ) T1 * ( 20 + X ) = 2 * ( T2 * ( 20 - X ) ) since T1 = T2 then 20 + X = 40 - 2X 3X = 20 X = 6.67 thus, river velocity is 6.67mph
Why does a ping pong float with a hair dryer?
When you point a running hair dryer upward, and place a ping pong ball in the air stream, it will eventually float somewhere above the hair dryer and near the air stream. It stays above the dryer because the drag of the air balances out the ball's 2.7 grams of mass, and near the air stream due to the Bernoulli effect. The Bernoulli effect is the drop in pressure when a fluid's velocity increases; you can demonstrate it by blowing over the top of a piece of paper. It is partly responsible for the lift generated by an airplane's wing. The ball is drawn towards the center of the air stream due to the increasing velocity and the resulting Bernoulli force, but is pushed away by the air glancing off its surface. The ball maintains a position where these forces balance out, perhaps wobbling back and forth so the average forces balance out.
Is stream up a compound word?
No. Stream up is not a compound word.
How many syllables are there in the word stream?
Stream has one syllable.
When the velocity of a stream suddenly decreases the sediment being transported undergoes an increase in?
Deposition, whereby the sediment load being transported is dropped.
Which sediment is the largest that could be carried by a stream flowing at a velocity of 100cmsec?
sand
What is a streams bed load?
Sediment that is carried by a stream along the bottom of its channel.
What is the total sediment load transported by a stream?
carrying power

Which change at a particular locating in a stream usually causes more sediment to be deposited at that location?
Decrease in stream velocity
Which change at a particular location in a stream usually causes more sediment to be deposited at that location?
Decrease in stream velocity
Which change at a particular location in a stream usually causes more sediment to be deposition at that location?
Decrease in stream velocity
What sediment is transported down a mountain and along a stream we are seeing the conservation of?
Matter
What factor determines the competence of a stream?
The competence of a stream is determined by the stream's velocity and the size of the sediment it can transport. Streams with higher velocities and larger sediment sizes are typically more competent and can transport larger particles.
How can sediment transported in a stream cause abrasion?
water can cause abrasion as rock's bumpinto and scrape each other as they are moved by waves and rivers.
