Heat; from radioactive decay, friction, and residual heat from Earth's formation.
Gravity.
True. Landforms on Earth's surface are the result of both internal forces, such as tectonic plate movement and volcanic activity, and external forces, such as erosion and weathering. These processes work together to shape the landforms we see today.
External forces, such as weathering and erosion, shape surface landforms through the gradual breakdown and transportation of rocks and soil. Internal forces, like tectonic activity, produce landforms by causing uplift, folding, faulting, and volcanic eruptions that change the earth's crust. Both external and internal forces work together to create and modify the Earth's surface features over time.
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
The two internal forces that shape the earth are volcanoes forcing magma through the crust and changes in the crust through forces like collisions.

Geologic forces that shape the Earth are weathering and erosion (from wind, ice, water, and gravity) and the results of plate tectonics (volcanism, earthquakes, mountain building, subduction, crust creation).
Constructive forces build up landforms by depositing materials, while destructive forces break down landforms by erosion or weathering. They are considered competing because constructive forces are constantly working to create new landforms, while destructive forces aim to break down existing landforms. The balance between these forces determines the overall shape of the Earth's surface.
Gradational forces are processes that gradually wear down and reshape the Earth's surface over time. This includes erosion, weathering, and deposition caused by natural agents like water, wind, ice, and gravity. These forces continuously shape the Earth's landforms and contribute to the process of landscape evolution.
The forces of plate movement can change a flat plain into landforms produced by folding, stretching, and uplifing Earth's crust.
Forces that affect the Earth's surface include gravity, erosion by wind and water, tectonic plate movements, and human activities such as mining and construction. These forces shape the landforms we see today.
it removes soil and rock from one location on the Earthand, then transporting it to another location.
A mountain is formed by both internal and external forces. Internal forces, such as tectonic plate movement and volcanic activity, cause the uplift of the Earth's crust. External forces, such as erosion by wind, water, and ice, shape the mountain's surface over time.
