How does gravity affect erosion?
water flows down hill because of gravity
What cuases rock fall?
Rocks fall because of gravity. Gravity is the force that brings things back to earth. Rocks on a slope, mountain, hill, etc. fall or roll down the hill with gravity. Also, mudslides and other things can push rocks down.
How does gravity affect the oceans?
Gravity will tend to pull the water down the "hill" or pile of water against the pressure gradient.
What causes valley glaciers to move?
Gravity, mostly. The great weight of the ice moves slowly down the valley.
What is the physical and chemical breakdown of rocks?
Im not sure but I do know how mechanical weathering breaks down rocks. By frost action or water going inside the rocks and breaking it apart Gravity an example is a rock falling down a hill for and breaking a part into peaces.
What are some forces that might affect a rock as it tumbles down a hill?
A force hit the rock which made it roll down the hill.
Does momentum make a bike move down a hill?
Momentum is the product of mass and velocity which infers motion taking place. If the bike was moving then yes it would make it go downhill. The real culprit would be gravity if the bike was not already in motion. The hill is an incline and the bike is being pulled by gravity down that incline.

How does gravity affect cycling?
Towards the center of the Earth. Really. Down, basically. If you're trying to go uphill, you'll get pulled backwards. If you're going downhill, you'll get pulled forwards, because of the slope of the hill and the action of the wheels.
Do rivers flow down hill because of gravity?

What power is a car using when it goes down a hill?
Gravity if you are coasting.
What causes a Honda to slow down going up a hill?
The Honda slows down when going up a hill because a mighty force called gravity is pulling it down. Gravity pulls everything down, so the car needs lots of force to struggle against the strong pull. That time you need to step on the gas pad more harder, and this is what happens if you take a bus up a very steep hill.
What force helps pull soil down a hill in a mudslide?
The force is the mass of the soil times the acceleration down the hill due to gravity.
