The answer is erosion. This includes the chemical and solution break up of rocks, and their transport to another place.
Aerial erosion is the process of moving sand and dusts by wind. Fluvial erosion is the same process but carried out by water, and this can move much larger particles. And the coasts are subject to erosion by the waves and the salt.
What else can I help you with?
How should you change the masses to increase the forces of gravity between two objects?
More mass = more force of gravity.
How gravity created in earth?
Gravity isn't created, it is a fact of nature - all masses attract, if one or more masses are vast, such as earth or another planet, the attraction is similarly vast. The reason why masses attract is not understood but an understanding is part of on-going fundamental nuclear physics research.
The movement of plates to form land masses is called?
The answer is true plate tectionics
How many miles from the surface of the earth to zero gravity?
There isn`t anyplace with zero gravity. Every thing in the universe has an amout of gravity excerting to all masses. Although it may be minute it still exists.
What determins the strength of the force of gravity between two objects?
-- the product of the masses of the two objects -- the distance between their centers
What are the 4 ways sediments erode by gravity?
The four ways sediments erode by gravity are creep (gradual downhill movement of soil), slides (sudden movement of large masses of soil downhill), flows (movement of sediment mixed with water downhill), and falls (sediment falling freely due to gravity).
Does The movement of air masses cause gravity?
No.
What two factors influence the amount of gravitational force when is gravity the strongest?
The two factors that influence the amount of gravitational force are the masses of the objects and the distance between them. Gravity is strongest when the masses of the objects are large and the distance between them is small.
Does the force of gravity have an effect on electricity ie lighting for example?
While gravity does not directly affect electricity, it can influence the behavior of lightning. Gravity plays a role in determining the vertical movement of air masses, which can impact the development and movement of thunderstorms that produce lightning. Overall, gravity indirectly influences the conditions that lead to the formation of lightning.
When large masses of land fall to lower levels?
This process is known as mass wasting or mass movement. It can occur due to various factors such as gravity, erosion, earthquakes, or human activities, leading to the downhill movement of rocks and soil. Mass wasting events can result in landslides, rockfalls, or mudflows, posing significant hazards to people and infrastructure.
What is it called when a huge mass of frozen water moves slowly?
That is called a glacier. Glaciers are large masses of ice and snow that move slowly downhill due to the force of gravity.
Can the gravity on earth change the surface of the earth?
Yes. Gravity is essential to shaping Earth's surface. Masses of rock and soil periodically fall, roll, and slide down from hills, mountains, and cliffs. Rain and snow fall on the surface, causing erosion and forming streams and rivers that flow downhill. Glaciers flow downhill, carving into solid rock. All of these processes are driven by gravity.
What has the impact been on gravity?
Gravity is only affected by masses, and by how far you are from those masses.
Does the speed of gravity slow down through a solid medium as light does?
The pull of Gravity is instant - just there , no medium can influence it - to destroy it you have to distribute the mass , it takes time to get the masses together and takes time to take them away ! Gravity is not dependant on time ! Do some calcs yourselves on the supposed max. light speed of gravity and the effects on the alignment of the barycentres of binary masses (stars) !
What law explains why masses are attracted to other masses?
The Law of Gravity
What happens to the amount of gravity when the masses get bigger or smaller?
The force of gravity is stronger between larger masses, and weaker between smaller masses. That's why there's more force between you and the Earth than there is between you and a bowling ball, for example.
To increase the force of gravity between two objects how should you change the masses?
Increasing the masses of the objects will increase the force of gravity between them. The force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the objects. So, by increasing the mass of one or both objects, the force of gravity between them will also increase.
