Which one of the following does not apply to stream turbulence and average velocity?
A) channel shape; bed roughness
B) stream gradient; channel roughness
C) discharge; stream gradient
D) laminar flow; dissolved load

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Turbulence and average velocity in streams are influenced by factors such as channel shape, bed roughness, stream gradient, channel roughness, and discharge. However, laminar flow and dissolved load do not directly influence stream turbulence and average velocity. Laminar flow refers to a type of flow where the fluid flows in parallel layers, with no disruption between the layers, which is not directly related to the factors affecting turbulence and average velocity in streams. Similarly, dissolved load refers to the portion of a stream's load that is carried in solution, which does not directly impact the stream's turbulence or average velocity.
