What is it called when rocks and soil in the Earth move suddenly?
It is called an earthquake when rocks and soil in the Earth move suddenly due to the release of energy along fault lines.
What is the force that causes rocks or soil to move downhill?
Gravity is the force that causes rocks or soil to move downhill. As material accumulates on a slope, the force of gravity pulls it downward due to the angle of the slope. This movement can lead to landslides or rockfalls.
What is the force that pulls rock and soil downslope a?
Gravity is the force that pulls rocks and soil downslope. The steeper the slope, the greater the force of gravity acting on the material, causing it to move.
Why do rocks come up in dirt?
When the Earth shifts beneath us, it pushes these rocks from under the dirt. The dirt is formed from parent rocks under the dirt. The movements cause vibrations and the rocks, as well as other things, move upward.
What is a massive river of ice rocks and soil that move slowly down a mountain?
A glacier is a massive river of ice, rocks, and soil that moves slowly down a mountain due to gravity. Glaciers form from the gradual accumulation and compaction of snow over time.
What weathering material leaves ridges of broken rock and soil?
Glaciers pick up rocks and soil as they move across land. When the glaciers melt, they deposit the rocks and soil. Today there are ridges of rocks and soil where glaciers once were.
What is it called when rocks and soil in the Earth move suddenly?
It is called an earthquake when rocks and soil in the Earth move suddenly due to the release of energy along fault lines.
When rocks and soil move very slowly down a hill it is called?

What is the force that causes rocks or soil to move downhill?
Gravity is the force that causes rocks or soil to move downhill. As material accumulates on a slope, the force of gravity pulls it downward due to the angle of the slope. This movement can lead to landslides or rockfalls.
What occurs when natural forces move soil and small rocks from one place to another?
deposition
What objects can a glacier move as it travels outward or downward?
sediments, rocks, till, debris, and soil
Huge sheets of ice that move slowly over land while picking up and carrying rocks and soil with them are?
These are glaciers. Glaciers are large bodies of ice that flow slowly over land, eroding the landscape and carrying rocks and soil with them as they move.
How do minerals enter the soil by rocks?
The minerals get into the soil by erosion of the rocks.
How can I effectively sift rocks out of soil?
To effectively sift rocks out of soil, you can use a sieve or a screen with small holes to separate the rocks from the soil. Simply pour the soil and rocks onto the sieve and shake it gently to allow the soil to fall through while the rocks remain on top. Repeat the process until most of the rocks are removed from the soil.
What do rocks and soil have in common?
soil comes from rocks. that's all i know
