When is a landslide called a mudflow?
A landslide is called a mud flow when it is raining when it happens which causes the dirt to turn to mud, or when a landslide happens at a muddy area so instead of dirt, its mostly mud.
Is a landslide a physical or chemical change?
A landslide is a physical change because it involves the movement of rock and sediment down a slope due to gravity. There is no change in the chemical composition of the materials involved in a landslide.
What is landslide and what should we do during landslide?
A landslide is rocks, dirt, snow, trees, and other items sliding down upon people, roads, houses. There isn't much you can do because it happens fast and without warning. Most people will never experience one unless they are skiing in an area prone to them or a mountain region that has become unstable. Mudslides do happen as well.
When dirt pebbles rocks and mudslide down a slope it is called a?
When dirt, pebbles, rocks, and mud slide down a slope, it is called a landslide. Landslides occur due to factors such as gravity, water saturation, and soil erosion, which destabilize the slope. They can vary in size and speed, from small debris flows to large rockslides, and can cause significant damage to the environment and human structures.
What is the name of the dirt layer under the grass?

What is the collapse of a mass of earth or rocks from a mountain called?
An avalanche can be rock, dirt, or even snow that falls down a mountain slope.Another term is landslide (landslip). A more specific term is rockslide.
Is landslide is a physical change or chemical change?
A landslide is only rocks/dirt moving so it is a physical change.
How a landslide happens?
the world shakes & all the dirt comes down.
What do animals do in a landslide situation?
stand on the moving dirt and slide to the bottom 2nd Answer: Well . . . to tell the truth, they run away if they can; otherwise they are killed by the landslide. By the way, no animal can stand on the moving "dirt" and slide to the bottom.

Does gravity or wind quickly pulls rocks and dirt downhill in a landslide?
Gravity is the primary force that causes rocks and dirt to move downhill in a landslide. Wind can contribute to the movement of loose material, but gravity is the dominant force in causing landslides.
What characteristic landscape features telll you that erosion due to a landslide took place?
Characteristics of a landslide are really easy to spot if it was a major landslide. Most common signs are tress will be pushed down, the dirt will have a look of water stopped in the middle of running down the hill. and at the end of a landslide there will be a pile of dirt and debris.

Physical. It is still dirt/rock, no change to it's nature- just its position.
