Erosion is the process by which materials on the Earth's surface are worn away and transported by natural forces, such as water, wind, or ice. The force that causes erosion varies depending on the environment but commonly includes water (running water in rivers or ocean waves), wind, ice (glaciers), and gravity.

What is another name for mass movement?
Mass movement is also known as mass wasting or slope movement, referring to the downslope movement of rock, soil, and debris under the force of gravity.
Name a feature that is formed by underground erosion?

Name the 5 agents of erosion?
The five agents of erosion are water, wind, ice, gravity, and human activities.
What name is given to a mass of rock that has been cut off from the mainland by erosion?
A mass of rock that has been cut off from the mainland by erosion is called a sea stack.
What is the name of the process where by rock is gradually brought up to the earth's surface?

What is the name for the force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume?

Name and define the two basic kinds of force?
Contact forces: frictional force, tension Force, air resistance force , applied force and spring force Action-at-a-Distance Forces: gravitantional, electrical and magnetic force If this was the answer you where looking for :)
What is the name of the force that doesn't change the motion of an object and they do not cause an object to start or stop moving?
the normal force or any balanced force
Is erosion another name for weathering?
Yes, erosion is a synonym of weathering.
What is anothher name for erosion?
Breakdown
What is the name of the process that happens after erosion?
After erosion, sediment is usually deposited in a still environment.
What is the name of the destructive force that breaks down rock?
Weathering and or erosion: Earthquakes cause rockfalls. Water freezing and expanding in cracks causes rocks to break. Wind and water erodes rock by passing over the rock and blowing or washing away the surface of the rock and/or by causing the rock to roll or tumble along the ground or against other rocks wearing or grinding the rock away.
What is the usual name of which can't produce motion but only change in motion?
Frictional Force. It is a 'reactive' force, and can only respond when another Force is applied. It can SLOW a motion, or cause a change in Direction.
What is the name for the land wearing away?
Erosion
Name and define the two different types of stroke?
can anyone answer me what is the 2 names of 2 stroke engine and define its name or meaning..
Define interaction force and interaction distance?
Interaction force is the force acting between two objects as a result of their interaction, such as gravitational, electromagnetic, or nuclear forces. Interaction distance is the distance between the centers of mass of the interacting objects at which the interaction force becomes significant enough to influence their behavior.
What is another name for mass movement?
Mass movement is also known as mass wasting or slope movement, referring to the downslope movement of rock, soil, and debris under the force of gravity.
