Gravity is the force behind precipitation in the water cycle. Rain, snow and other forms of falling water are carried to earth by gravity. There, the liquid water can wash materials away. Snow can accumulate and melt and do the same thing. Snow can also accumulate, freeze, and then become moving ice (a glacier). We know glaciers can move massive amounts of rock and other materials, and can shear off or grind materials because of their weight and/or the force of the moving ice mass.
We also know that gravity directly acts to "pull down" weakened geologic structures, like cliffs or even mountain sides. Loose rock or earth is dragged down from higher points all the time, and it might be one or two chunks of material, or a landslide. Even the great spires in places like Monument Valley will eventually succumb to gravity's pull.
Water's attempt to get to sea level via gravity will strongly affect the force of weathering. A great example is the Grand Canyon. There, the uplifted Colorado Plateau was deeply incised by the downward rushing waters of the Colorado River and its tributaries.
Gravity affects the deposition of sediments because it pulls the particles from one location to another. As the water slows down, the sediment will drop.
By moving it
At the bottom.
what way gravity move material
everything uses gravity! if gravity was absent we all would be flaoting!!
Where the substance to be filtered is above the filter element, and uses the force of gravity to move it through the filter.
Gravity.
the force of gravity
erosion
When gravity and friction overcome the ability of the moving water to move them.

How do sediment move
They sink to the bottom.
Items That Have Mass In Them..
Gravity contributes to deposition by the sediments of rocks floating in the air and forming the rock cycle. Giggity Gravity contributes to deposition by the sediments of rocks floating in the air and forming the rock cycle. Giggity
Gravity
Sediments are transported by four main agents water, ice, wind, and the effects of gravity. The speed with which the agent of erosion moves affects the size of sediment particles that can be carried and the distance that the particles will move.
