Reference excerpt

The Le Bras (in English: The Arm River) flows through the municipalities of La Pocatière (MRC of Kamouraska Regional County Municipality) and Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies (MRC of L'Islet Regional County Municipality), in the administrative regions of Bas-Saint-Laurent and Chaudière-Appalaches, at Quebec, in Canada. The Le Bras River is a tributary of the east bank of the Ferrée River, which flows 240 metres (790 ft) further north on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River. This last confluence is located in the small hamlet of Village-des-Aulnaies, located southwest of the village of La Pocatière and northeast of the village of Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies.

Geography The Le Bras river has its source at Bourgelas lake (length: 0.8 kilometres (0.50 mi); altitude: 197 metres (646 ft)) located in La Pocatière. This lake is located 6.0 kilometres (3.7 mi) southeast of the south shore of the St. Lawrence River, 7.1 kilometres (4.4 mi) southwest of the village center from Saint-Onésime-d'Ixworth, at 5.3 kilometres (3.3 mi) south of the center of the village of La Pocatière and at 12.2 kilometres (7.6 mi) at the east of the village center of Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies. This lake is located near the limit of the municipality of Saint-Onésime-d'Ixworth. Its mouth is located to the north-west. From this lake, the Le Bras river flows in a forest and agricultural zone over 14.6 kilometres (9.1 mi), divided into the following segments:

2.0 kilometres (1.2 mi) towards the southwest in La Pocatière in a forest zone, crossing Lac Perdu (length: 160 metres (520 ft); altitude: 168 metres (551 ft)) to its mouth. This lake is located in a small valley on the east side of Montagne des Marais and on the north side of Coteau Pelé, near the limit of Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies; 1.0 kilometre (0.62 mi) towards the southwest in a forest zone, up to the limit with Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies; 4.2 kilometres (2.6 mi) towards the south-west in Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies in a forest zone, collecting water from the Martin stream, up to the range of Haute-Ville; 4.0 kilometres (2.5 mi) towards the southwest, crossing the rang de la Haute-Ville, then north, to the third Rang East; 2.9 kilometres (1.8 mi) north-west along Route du Moulin, in an agricultural zone, to highway 20; 0.5 kilometres (0.31 mi) north-west, up to its confluence. The Le Bras river empties on the east bank of the Ferrée river, just south of the route 132 (route de la Seigneurie) bridge, in the hamlet of Village-des-Aulnaies. This confluence is located at 2.9 kilometres (1.8 mi) east of the center of the village of Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies and at 4.6 kilometres (2.9 mi) north of the center of village of Sainte-Louise.

Toponymy The toponym Le Bras was formalized on December 5, 1968, at the Commission de toponymie du Québec.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Le Bras (Ferrée River tributary)

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Le Bras (Ferrée River tributary) claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Le Bras (Ferrée River tributary) before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Le Bras (Ferrée River tributary) ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Le Bras (Ferrée River tributary)

In research: Le Bras (Ferrée River tributary) appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Le Bras (Ferrée River tributary) in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Le Bras (Ferrée River tributary) is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Kamouraska Regional County Municipality, L'Islet Regional County Municipality, Rivers of Chaudière-Appalaches, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Le Bras (Ferrée River tributary) outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
