Waterfalls are created when the riverbed changes suddenly from hard rock to soft rock. Rapids are formed where a fast-flowing river quickly cuts downwards through a bed of hard and soft rocks, eroding the soft rock and leaving the hard rocks standing above the water surface.

Answer:
Waterfalls often form in the upper stages of a river where it flows over different bands of rock. It erodes soft rock more quickly than hard rock and this may lead to the creation of a waterfall. Formation of a waterfall: The soft rock erodes more quickly, undercutting the hard rock.
