Answer:
The ability to erode is affected by the velocity, or speed, of the water. As water slows, larger particles are deposited. As the water slows even more, smaller particles are deposited. The graph in Figure below shows how water velocity and particle size influence erosion and deposition.

Answer:
Slower moving water erodes material more slowly. If water is moving slowly enough, the sediment being carried may settle out. This settling out, or dropping off, of sediment is deposition.
