1) alluvium
it is a loose unconsolidated deposit of soil and sediments which is eroded by the streams all along its way and deposited on the plain.
2)moving heat energy poleward
ocean currents act as a conveyer belt which transport warm water from equator to pole and cold water from pole to equator and it regulates the global climate and compensate the soalr radiation by tranporting energy to poles.
3) discharge
discharge of a stream is the product of velocity,( distance travel in unit time ) and depth of the water, which gives the volume of water the stream carries.
4)8.33 minutes.
the average distance between earth and sun is 1.496*1011meter and the speed of light is 3*108 meter/ second. using distance divided by speed gives the time.
5) a nickpoint
it is a part of the river system, where sharp change in slope occurs such as in water falls.
6)short wave
solar energy reach earth as short wavelength radiation like ultraviolet and visible light. wavelenth of visible light varies from nearly 400nm to 700nm and ibove this wavelenth, infrared known as long wavelength radiations,.
