Question

Factors affecting work of river are ____________.

• A. Velocity of water
• B. Volume of water
• C. Load
• D. All of these

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of these

Factors affecting work of river are Velocity of water, Volume of water and Load.

The flow velocity, or speed of flow, can influence the shape and rate of erosion of a river system. The cross-sectional shape of a river dictates how much friction will impact the flow of water within a river. Finally, the sediment load, or the amount of rocks and soil in the river, impacts its flow velocity and shape.
