Energy in waves come from wind that blows across the water's surface.
What is how waves form
100
This type of erosion wears away rock
What is abrasion
100
The ability to do work or cause change is called?
What is energy
100
The amount of sediment that a river carries is its ________
What is load
100
This prevents water from flowing smoothly in a streambed, increases friction, reduces river's speed, and causes turbulence which mades the water flow erratically.
What is roughness
200
This is a result of powerful storms far out to sea.
What is large ocean waves
200
Waves hit rocks on the shoreline and eventually break them apart. This type of wave erodes the land is called?
What is impact.
200
Energy an object has due to its motion.
What is kinetic energy
200
A river's slope, volume of flow, and the shape of its stream bed all affect what?
What is how fast a river flows
200
This type of glacier covers much of a continent or large island.
What is continental glaciers
300
These are produced by breezes like we see in lakes and small ponds.
What is ordinary waves
300
Sea stack, headland, sea cave, sea arch, beach, sandbar, spit - these are what created by wave erosion?
What is landforms
300
Energy that is stored and waiting to be used later.
What is Potential energy
300
As more water flows through a river, its speed increases.
What is volume of flow
300
Any large mass of ice that moves slowly is known as a?
What is glacier
400
These are a major force of erosion. They can shape the coast and transport sand and other sediment.
What is waves
400
Waves shape the coast through ___________?
What is erosion
400
This causes the movement of water across the Earth's land surface.
What is gravity
400
Affects the amount of friction between the water and the shape of?
What is streambed
400
With this type of glacier, mountain sides help to keep glaciers from spreading.
What is valley glaciers
500
A part of the shore that sticks out into the ocean.
What is headland
500
Headlands are a part of he shore and are able to resist erosion because?
What is rocks found there are harder
500
Rock, sand, clay, soil, salt - these are known as
What is sediment
500
Water can dissolve some of these completely
What is sediment
500
When a glacier flows over the land, it picks up rocks and drags them across the land. This is known as?
