What causes gravity of erosion?

Answer 1

Gravity pulls all objects toward Earth's center. Gravity will pull weathered particles on a slope to a lower position. In this way, the pull of gravity is responsible for landslides, slump, mudslides, and creep.

Answer 2

Because it can pull down water from lets say ..........rivers and it can create canyons,sand dunes,valleys, and other types of landforms. Gravity can pull down water in a huge force and make peices of different hardend sediment or tough rock break off and create the landforms that I listed above

Answer 3

Without gravity, water would not carry sediments, wind would not carry sediments, and ice would not flow carrying sediments. Erosion is the movement of sediments from one place to another place.

Answer 4

Gravity causes erosion by pulling loose rocks and sediments downhill, creating the force needed to transport and deposit them. This can lead to processes like mass wasting, where rocks and soil move downslope due to gravity, and can result in erosion of the landscape over time.

Answer 5

Gravity pulls the rocks, soil and dirt downward which causes erosion. When water mixes with dirt, it becomes mud and the mud isn't able to support itself against the gravity.

Answer 6

Allows weathered material to fall away from the face, thus exposing a new surface to weathering. Gravity is also responsible for stream flow, helping to transport the sediment away.

Answer 7

gravity is pulling the rock materials down by its force but agents of erosion is changing of rocks

Answer 8

it causes water to move downward. carrying sediment as it flows.
