That's called a 'fault line'.
actually glaciers move quite rapidly, they might not look like they are moving at all but in fact for their giant size they can move very quickly.
Your faults are flaws in your personality. Earth's faults are cracks in the ground along which blocks of rock move.
No, strike-slip faults are typically caused by horizontal shearing forces where blocks of the Earth's crust move past each other horizontally. Tension forces usually manifest in normal faults where blocks of the crust move away from each other, causing extension.
The Maya likely used a combination of methods to move large limestone blocks, including rolling them over logs or balls as well as using sledges or ramps. This allowed them to transport heavy stones for construction of their temples and monuments.
1. Logs rolling it have to be replaced.2. Blocks were heavy
The limestone blocks used in the construction of the pyramids were heavy, often weighing several tons, making them difficult to move. Additionally, the rough and uneven terrain of ancient Egypt posed challenges for transporting such large stones. Workers likely used sledges to move the blocks, which, when dragged over sand, created friction; to mitigate this, they may have poured water on the sand to reduce resistance. The combined weight of the blocks and the conditions of the landscape made the process labor-intensive and challenging.
The limestone quarry where they mined the stone for the pyramids had to be relatively close to the pyramids (they could not move the blocks far), and the nearest good stone to be quarried was to be found between the pyramids and the Nile River.
Make the panel show "OPEN" like the writing above the blocks. Move 3 blocks to the right. Move 3 blocks up. Move 1 block left. Move 3 blocks down. Move 1 block left. Move 3 blocks up. Move 1 block left. Move 2 blocks down. See related link for screenshots.

Glaciers are giant blocks of ice that move slowly, rivers are large volumes of water flowing in a definite course or channel.
Before they were made, frames were put in place to hold it upright. The limestone blocks weighed at least 1 tonne each, therefore they wouldn't move even if the wind blew.
They were moved without the aid of the wheel, animal power or machinery. This means they were dragged on sledges which produces more friction than a wheeled vehicle. Friction was reduced probably by pouring oil or water under the blades of the sledge which did make life easier for the slaves.
The blocks for the pyramids were primarily made of limestone and granite, quarried from nearby sites. Workers used copper tools to extract the stone, and then transported the blocks using sledges, likely lubricated with water to reduce friction. They may have also employed ramps to move the blocks into position as the pyramid rose. This collective effort involved skilled laborers, not slaves, indicating a well-organized workforce.

waters of the ocean that move in giant streams are called currents.
