What else can I help you with?
Is the surface of water flat?
Technically, No. Water in a glass (or other vessel) has a curved surface known as a meniscus. A large body of water (like an ocean) actually follows the curve of the earth. So the surface of the water is a curve or section of a sphere.
Explain why the surface of water in a container is not flat but curved?
Surface tension.
What factors determine the carrying capacity?
Factors that determine carrying capacity are the amount of resources available and population. Other factors are land area and amount of water.
What is the maximum depth a water spill will be on a flat surface?
Any, depending on the volume of water spilt and the area of the flat surface. The specific height is also constrained by the surface tension of the water, the atmospheric pressure above it, and the gravity below it.
Why does water curve on the edges?
Water curves on the edges due to a phenomenon called surface tension, which results from cohesive forces between water molecules. These molecules are more attracted to each other than to the air above, creating a sort of "skin" on the surface. When water is in contact with a solid surface, such as a glass, adhesive forces between the water molecules and the surface can also cause the water to climb slightly along the edges, leading to a meniscus shape. This curvature minimizes the surface area and energy of the water.
How do you spell Oqwaduck?
The word with that pronunciation is aqueduct (water channel, or a bridge carrying water).
What is a man made stone channel for carrying water over a great distance?
an aqueduct
How can moving water change the earthe surface?
by wearing away small pieces of land and carrying them to new places
What is water sewage?
A drainage system for carrying surface water and sewage for disposal.
Along straight stretches of a stream channel the highest velocities of water are found in what area?
near the water surface in the center of the stream
What is a body of water which travels through a channel in the earth's surface?
A river is a body of water that travels through a channel in the earth's surface. It typically flows towards an ocean, sea, lake, or another river. Rivers play a crucial role in shaping the landscape and supporting ecosystems.
Any channel that carries water is called?
A water-carrying channel is typically called a "waterway" or a "watercourse." This can include natural channels like rivers or man-made channels like canals.
How can water change earth?
Water changes the earths surface by it running across the land and picking it up and carrying away. The faster the water the more erosion. Erosion is the picking up and carrying away of rock material.
What are Qanats?
A qanāt is a gently sloping underground channel to transport water from an aquifer or water well to the surface for irrigation and drinking.
Why do florist cut stems at an angle?
so that there is more surface and thus more water-carrying tubes, so water can travel faster.
Is guter a word?
if you mean gutter - it is a channel at the side of a road to carry away surface water
What causes moving water to drop sediments it is carrying?
Moving water drops sediments it is carrying when its velocity slows down. This can happen when the water enters a wider channel, encounters obstacles like rocks or vegetation, or when the gradient of the river decreases, allowing sediments to settle out of suspension.
