Question

A fast flowing river can carry very little sediment.true or false

Answer 1

Answer: A fast flowing river can carry very little sediment. More friction between water and streambed will reduce the speed of flowing water. How would a fast-flowing river be most likely to move sand-sized particles of sediment? It would lift them and carry them downstream.

Answer 2

False. The faster the river is the more it can carry. Not only in amount of sediment, but also in its size. Slow rivers carry very little sediment.
