How does a meander form in a river?

Geography
1 answer:
AlexFokin [52]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A meander forms in a river by eroding laterally, to the right side then the left side and the left side again, this forms large bends, which then horseshoe like loops called meanders. The force of the water then erodes and undercuts the river bank on the outside of the bend which is where the water flows and it has the most energy due to the decreasing friction.

hope this helps :)

Explanation:

Antes de explicar a sua eprgunta, eu preciso te falar que esse não é osite brasileiro e sim o americano, por esse motivo ele esta todo em inglês. Isso significa que para postar pergunta em português nesse site, você deve postar essa pergunta no campo "World Languagens", independente da materia que essa pergunta é, caso contrario, a sua pergunta pode ser apagada sem receber resposta.

Os seres humanos precisavam criar sistemas que permitissem que eles se orientassem a cerca do espaço ao seu redor e podesse, assim, se locomover para qualquer região que quisessem.

Dentre esses sistemas, a rosa dos ventos e a bússola foram essenciais não só para a locomoção, mas para a evolução das sociedades, ja que isso permitiu que os navegadores e exploradores tivessem contato com outras regiões e outros povos.

Atualmente o GPS é a criação mais eficiente, podendo orientar os individuos com precisão, a cerca do espaço onde estão localizados.
