Answer:

Landslide, also called landslip is the movement downslope of a mass of rock, debris, earth, or soil (soil being a mixture of earth and debris). Landslides occur when gravitational and other types of shear stresses within a slope exceed the shear strength (resistance to shearing) of the materials that form the slope.

QUESTION:

  • SHORT NOTE ON LAND SLIDES.

ANSWER:

  • A landslide is defined as the movement of a mass of rock, debris, or earth down a slope.

  • Landslides are a type of "mass wasting," which denotes any down-slope movement of soil and rock under the direct influence of gravity.

  • Earthquake shaking and other factors can also induce landslides underwater.
