If you are asking the meanings of these words, I believe this is your answer:
- Volcano: a feature caused by extrusive igneous action, which may have originally been a mountain. The volcano erupts igneous material, including pyroclastic material, ash, bombs and, of course, lava
- Erosion: the wearing away and taking away of rocks
- Weathering: the wearing away of rocks in situ
- Mass movement: the movement of a large amount of material down a slope. This comes in the form of landslides mostly, but includes other similar phenomenons. This may occur quickly as a landslide, of may just be land creeping slowly downhill
I hope this answers your question.
What else can I help you with?
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.
What is downward rapid movement of rocks resulting in mass wasting?
uhhh i think its weathering??
What force and what cause can contribute to both erosion and mass wasting?
gravity and movement
How does a rock change into sedimentary rock?
A sedimentary rock changes into a metamorphic rock when there is heat, pressure, and time. -over a long period of time
What role does mass wasting play in the development of landforms?
mass wasting is the down slope movement of rock and soil under the direct influence of gravity.mass wasting is the step that follows weathering in the evolution of most landforms.
What are the problems of soft rock?
They are prone to virtually any form of erosion, weathering and mass movement/wasting.
How does weathering effect Bruce Peninsula National park?
through erosion and mass wasting
What role does gravity play on weathering?
Gravity contributes to weathering by pulling materials downhill, increasing the force of weathering processes such as physical erosion and mass wasting. Gravity also influences the movement of water and ice, which further aids in the breakdown of rocks through erosion. Overall, gravity plays a crucial role in shaping landscapes through weathering processes.
What moves rock materials across the surface of the Earth?
Rock materials are moved across the Earth's surface primarily by processes such as erosion, weathering, and mass wasting. Erosion, caused by water, wind, or ice, wears down rock and transports it to new locations. Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, while mass wasting involves the movement of larger chunks downhill due to gravity.
How is Earth's surface is worn down?
denudation forces including mass wasting, weathering, and erosion
