The impulse energy of the water jet exerts torque on the bucket-and-wheel system, spinning the wheel; the water jet does a "u-turn" and exits at the outer sides of the bucket, decelerated to a low velocity. In the process, the water jet's momentum is transferred to the wheel and hence to a turbine. Thus, "impulse" energy does work on the turbine.
Water cycle showing human influences and major pools (storages) and fluxes. [19] The water cycle describes the processes that drive the movement of water throughout the hydrosphere. However, much more water is "in storage" (or in "pools") for long periods of time than is actually moving through the cycle.
Feeling from Mountain and Water (Chinese: 山水情; pinyin: shān shuǐ qíng) is a Chinese animated short film produced by Shanghai Animation Film Studio under the master animator Te Wei, who retired after the film was complete. [1] It is also referred to as Love of Mountain and River and Feelings of Mountains and Waters.
A cinemagraph; the grass in the foreground is moving slightly. Cinemagraphs are still photographs in which a minor and repeated movement occurs, forming a video clip.They are published as an animated GIF or in other video formats, and can give the illusion that the viewer is watching an animation.
There are three basic types of freshwater ecosystems: Lentic (slow moving water, including pools, ponds, and lakes), lotic (faster moving water, for example streams and rivers) and wetlands (areas where the soil is saturated or inundated for at least part of the time). Limnology (and its branch freshwater biology) is a study about freshwater ...
Fluid animation refers to computer graphics techniques for generating realistic animations of fluids such as water and smoke. [1] Fluid animations are typically focused on emulating the qualitative visual behavior of a fluid, with less emphasis placed on rigorously correct physical results, although they often still rely on approximate ...

a narrow channel of water that connects two larger bodies of water, and thus lies between two land masses. Stream: a body of water with a detectable current, confined within a bed and banks. Stream pool: a stretch of a river or stream in which the water is relatively deep and slow moving. Streamlet: a small stream; rivulet. [38] Subglacial lake
