What else can I help you with?
What is the differences between landslide and mass wasting?
landslide is a type of mass wasting
Is metamorphic schist involved in mass wasting?
nope.
1 What is the fastest type of mass wasting?
rocks
Name three characteristics of mass wasting?
Mass wasting is the movement of rock and soil downhill under the force of gravity. It can be triggered by factors such as rainfall, earthquakes, or human activities. The three key characteristics of mass wasting are the type of material involved (e.g. rock, soil), the speed of movement (e.g. slow creeping or fast landslide), and the type of movement (e.g. slide, flow, fall).
What are the three criteria used to classify the different types of mass wasting?
The three criteria used to classify mass wasting are the type of material involved (rock, soil, or a mix), the speed at which the movement occurs (slow or fast), and the nature of the movement (fall, slide, or flow).
Which type of mass wasting produces a talus slope?
fall
What type of mass wasting would likely be triggered by an earthquake?
Landslide.
What type of mass wasting took place at Portuguese bend CA?
The mass wasting that took place at Portuguese Bend, CA is primarily rotational slumping. This type of mass wasting occurs when layers of rock and soil slide along a curved surface, leading to the gradual downhill movement of the material. The unstable nature of the steep coastal cliffs in this area makes it prone to this form of mass wasting.
What climate influence in mass wasting?
why the mass wasting accurs
How can you put the word mass wasting in a sentence?
Mass wasting is hazardous and could kill you.
What type of weathering increases mass wasting?
Acid rain causes more mass wasting when people pollute the enviroment and when they smoke make too much use of ciggarete
What is the slowest type of mass wasting?
Creep is the slowest type of mass wasting, where soil and rock move downhill imperceptibly slowly due to gravity. This gradual movement can be observed through the tilting of fences, trees, or other structures over time.
