What is the agent of erosion for mass movement?
Gravity is the main agent of erosion for mass movement. It pulls rock and sediment downslope, causing mass wasting processes like landslides, rockfalls, and slumps.
What are 2 examples of rapid mass erosion?
The Grand Canyon in Arizona was formed through rapid mass erosion caused by the Colorado River carving through the rock over millions of years. The erosion of coastal cliffs due to storm surges and wave action can also result in rapid mass erosion, such as the erosion seen along the coastline of California.
How does erosion effect mass wasting?
Erosion can weaken the base of a slope, making it more susceptible to mass wasting events such as landslides or rockfalls. By stripping away supporting material, erosion can increase the likelihood of slope failure. Additionally, erosion can transport material downslope, contributing to the accumulation of debris at the base of the slope and potentially triggering mass wasting.
What are all the forms of erosion?
All forms of erosion are weathering, mass movement, I am not positive if deposition is one of them. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong. If I am wrong I apologize in advance. ;)
What are the 5 types of erosion?
The five types of erosion are water erosion, wind erosion, glacier erosion, wave erosion, and mass movement erosion. Each type of erosion is caused by different forces and processes that wear away or transport soil and rock material from one place to another.
What is the mainland mass?
Mainland Mass. menat that state land west of cape cod canal!
How to find potential energy when only mass and velocity time is given?
To get the potential energy when only the mass and velocity time has been given, simply multiply mass and the velocity time given.
What is the name of disintegration and dissolving of surface and subsurface rock erosion mass wasting land mass denudation weathering?
Weathering is the process in which materials are broken down either chemically or physically. Weathering and erosion are commonly confused. However, erosion is the transport of material that has been previously eroded. Therefore, the answer is weathering.

How do you solve for mass when you have been given the force equation?
F=ma, where F is force, m is mass, and acceleration is a. F/a=m
What is mass movement erosion?
its is when something happens on soil
Mass wasting is a form of erosion caused by ice?
no
What is a mass of sand due to erosion called?
eluvium
