What can rush downhill as a huge mass of soil water and rock leaving a bare scar in the hillside?
mudslide
What is the downhill movement of rock or soil?
erosion or mass movement
What is the slow downhill mass movement of rock and soil caused by gravity?
Landslide or landslip.
Mass wasting is the downhill movement of soil and rock debris caused by what?
Running water :) wrong, its GRAVITY
Mass wasting is the downhill movement of soil and rock debris caused by?
The principal force in action is the gravity.

What is the slowest type of mass wasting?
Soil creep is the slowest form of mass wasting.
What is the type of mass movement by which a mixture of water rock and soil moves rapidly downhill?
air and soil if you havy any comment find me at hkedash@yahoo.com
What is the soil moving slowly downhill called?
Erosion. More specifically in soils this is likely to be creep or solifluction. These are types of mass wasting.
What are the four types of mass movement?
Mass movement (also known as mass wasting) can be any of four types of motions :creep (objects lean downhill over many years)slump (rock and soil slip down a hill in one large mass)slides (landslides : rock and soil slide downhill)flows (mudslides and mudflows: rock and soil mixed with water slides downhill)Under some definitions, there are two other types, which do not involve "flows" of material. They are :topples (rock pivots off a slope)falls (rock separates and falls without flowing)
Is a slump mass movement or a creep mass movement faster?
A slump mass movement is faster because a creep mass movement is the slowest kind of mass movement.it is slow because the mass movement involve gradual downhill movement of soil and regolith.
