Slump
The mass movement in which materials move as one large mass is called a landslide. It occurs when the force of gravity overcomes the strength of the materials holding the slope together, causing the mass of material to move downhill.
The type of mass movement where materials move as a block is called a rockslide or landslide. This happens when a large mass of rock or soil breaks away and moves downhill quickly as a single unit.
Runoff refers to the movement of water over the Earth's surface, carrying sediment and other materials with it. While runoff itself does not involve mass movement, it can contribute to processes like erosion and sediment transport, which are forms of mass movement.
The movement of a large mass of sediment or a section of land down a slope is called mass wasting or mass movement. This process can be triggered by factors such as gravity, water saturation, or seismic activity. It can result in landslides, mudslides, or rockfalls.
A type of mass movement in which materials move like a river is called a debris flow. Debris flows consist of a mixture of water and large amounts of rock, soil, and other debris that flow rapidly downhill, often triggered by heavy rainfall or melting snow.

mass movement
Mass movement in the digestive system refers to the coordinated muscular contractions of the large intestine that propel waste materials towards the rectum. This process helps move feces through the colon and ultimately aids in the elimination of waste from the body. Mass movements usually occur after meals due to the gastrocolic reflex.

Mudflow. Apex
Mass wasting or mass movement can be defined as the process of downward movement of earths materials either soil debris, rock matter or other materials through a slope under the influence of gravity. Water is a very important factor favoring mass wasting. The criteria used to classify mass wasting include; 1. Velocity. (fast/quick or slow/gradual) 2. State of matter. (solid, liquid or semi-solid) 3. Volume. (large or small)
Yes, greater mass in an object results in a higher resistance to a change in movement, which is known as inertia. This means that more force is needed to accelerate or decelerate an object with greater mass compared to an object with less mass.
