What else can I help you with?
Is mass movement caused by ice?
Yes, mass movement can be caused by ice. For example, glaciers can erode and carry large amounts of soil and rock downhill, leading to mass movement such as landslides and rockfalls. Additionally, when ice within rock fractures melts and refreezes, it can cause the rock to weaken, making it more susceptible to mass movement.
What is a large mass of snow and ice that moves slowly over land?
Any large mass of ice that moves slowly over ice is called a glacier.
How can ice weather a rock?
In one way (ice wedging), water gets into cracks in the rock, then freezes. This force can eventually split the rock crystals. In another (moving ice), a glacier or other large mass of ice moves across the rocks surface. This can scour away loose rock by friction. (It does not require that there be imbedded rocks, but this can also occur, where rocks are pushed together until one breaks.)
Does a 2kg rock have twice the mass of a 1kg rock?
Yes. Kilogram is the unit of mass.
What tool do you use to find the mass of a rock?
You can use a balance or scale to find the mass of a rock. Place the rock on the balance or scale and record the reading to determine its mass.

A small mass of rock ice and frozen gases that orbits the sun is a?
Comet.
Is a glacier a mass of ice or a mass of sand?
The answer to the question is a glacier is a mass of ice.
Is a glacier called a rock?
No, a glacier is not called a rock. A glacier is a large mass of ice that moves slowly over land due to gravity. Rocks may be found within or on top of a glacier, but the glacier itself is made of ice.
What is a mass of snow rock ice soil or other material that slides swiftly down a mountain?
AVALANCHE!
Is slump a glacier?
No. A glaciers is a slowly flowing mass of ice. A slump is a form of mass wasting in which a mass of rock or sediment breaks loose from a slope and moves relatively slowly downhill as a coherent mass.
What is the name of mass snow rock ice soil or other material that slide swiftly down a mountain?
avalanche
