Mass Movement.
Mass wasting is the term used to describe the process of the transfer of rock material down slope under the influence of gravity. There are various terms used to describe how these materials move when a mass wasting event is happening, include flow and slide.

Mass wasting is the term used to describe the process of the transfer of rock material down slope under the influence of gravity. There are various terms used to describe how these materials move when a mass wasting event is happening, include flow and slide.
Gravity.
The reason is gravity which, on earth, pulls all objects towards the centre of the earth.
This is broadly known as mass wasting which is a type of erosion.
Yes, that would be true.
Yes it does ones its generated through a down slope movement under the influence of gravity.
Mass wasting or mass movement refers to the movement of rock debris down a slope due to the influence of gravity. The movement is induced by natural factors or by human interferance on hill slope. The movement can be slow or fast.
No. Gravity does decrease in strength as distance from Earth decreases, but it never goes to zero. At a distance of about 1.5 million kilometers, however, Earth's gravity becomes negligible and the sun's gravity has a greater influence on the movement of objects.
Gravity. Mostly that of the Sun, although planets (especially if they are close and heavy) may also influence the path of an asteroid.
