What force drives mass movement?
Gravity.
Erosion that occurs when gravity alone causes rock or sediment to move down a slope?
The type of erosion that occurs when gravity alone causes rock or sediment to move down a slope is called mass movement. The types of mass movement are creep, slump, rock slides, and mudflows.
The movement of air mass over earth's surface causes?
It causes local weather changes.
What is mass movement çaused by?
A mass which is at rest will remain at rest unless it is acted upon by a force. A moving mass will continue to move in a straight line for ever unless it is acted upon by a force.
Mass wasting is the downhill movement of soil and rock debris caused by?
The principal force in action is the gravity.
What causes different types of mass movement?
Gravity causes all the types of mass movement. :P
What is the force causes mass movement?
gravity
Why is gravity the force that causes all types of mass movement?
Gravity is the main cause of all the mass movements because it brings everything down which causes it to destroy things in its path
What underlying force causes all forms of mass movement?
interchangeable parts
What force causes mass movement?
gravity is the main cause of mass movements.
Does force describe mass or acceleration?
Neither. Force causes acceleration of mass. Mathematically, Force = Mass * Acceleration.
What is force behind mass movement?
gravity.
What force drives mass movement?
Gravity.
What are causes of mass movement?
Gravity, honey. : )

The type of erosion that occurs when gravity alone causes rock or sediment to move down a slope is called mass movement. The types of mass movement are creep, slump, rock slides, and mudflows.
What are the 3 elements of movement?
force mass acceleration
A force causes a mass to?
