Things fall in the direction that we call "down".
BTW, "down" may point in different "absolute" directions.
the sun heats up rocks during the day so that they expand. at night, these rocks cool down and contract. since all the parts of the rock do not expand and contract at the same rate, this results in the formation of cracks and ultimately the huge rocks break up into smaller pieces.
The word "fall" can refer to the season of autumn, characterized by cooler temperatures and changing leaves. It can also describe the action of descending or dropping, such as when someone loses their balance and falls to the ground. Additionally, "fall" can signify a decline in status or quality, such as a fall in stock prices or a person's reputation.
A homogenous mixture is one containing a number of particles of the same substance, while a heterogenous mixture contains particles of different substances. For example, a handful of sand would probably be considered a homogenous mixture because it only contains sand particles, while a handful of mud would be a heterogenous mixture because it contains particles of dirt, water, sand, rocks, etc.
Gravity is the force that causes the sediments to fall from their transport medium.Turbulence in that medium will keep the smallest particles in suspension the longest, so the delta will grade from coarse material to fine material as one approaches the sea, and indeed the finest particles will only settle far out in the sea.
soil, light, rainfall, fire, and surprisingly some rocks
When the ground thaws, the force of gravity causes the soil and rock particles to fall back down. But they fall vertically, toward the center of Earth. The result is movement downhill.
To effectively sift rocks from dirt, use a sieve or mesh screen to separate the larger rocks from the smaller dirt particles. Shake the sieve gently to allow the dirt to fall through while retaining the rocks on top. Repeat the process until most of the rocks are separated from the dirt.

One efficient way to separate rocks from dirt in soil is by using a process called screening. This involves passing the soil through a series of screens with different sized holes. The smaller dirt particles will fall through the screens, while the larger rocks will be left behind.
Tephra is the term used to describe bits of material, such as ash, rocks, and other debris, that fall to the Earth after a volcanic eruption. Tephra can vary in size and composition depending on the nature of the eruption.
Particles fall downward due to the force of gravity, which pulls them toward the center of the Earth. This downward motion is influenced by their mass and the surrounding conditions, such as air resistance. In a vacuum, all particles will fall at the same rate regardless of their mass, while in the presence of air, lighter particles may fall more slowly due to drag.
No, particles do not fall to Earth specifically due to temperature increases. Temperature changes can affect air and ocean currents, leading to weather patterns that may transport particles or pollutants from one region to another, but the particles themselves do not fall due to temperature increases alone.
Rocks that fall off mountains are typically loose, unconsolidated rocks such as scree or talus. These rocks can become dislodged due to factors like weathering, erosion, seismic activity, or human interference, posing a risk to hikers and climbers.
Soil and rock particles typically fall vertically downward due to the force of gravity. The direction of their fall is determined by the pull of gravity towards the center of the Earth.
Corrosion. Rushing water against rocks make them corrode.
Rocks don't fall from the sky naturally. However, meteorites, which are rocks from space, can fall to Earth due to gravitational forces. When a meteoroid enters Earth's atmosphere and survives the heat of entry, it is called a meteorite.
