Answer to Question 1

Answer: The gravity force parallel to the surface must be greater than the resisting strength. If the resisting strength of the material is small, then objects move only on a low slope,. If the resisting strength is large, then objects only move on a steep slope. Slope angle is also very important in determining motion, as driving forces increase with increasing slope angle, and resisting strength increases with decreasing slope angle.

Answer to Question 2

Posted another one can you check that one too? Thanks.

Answer to Question 3

Answer: They interrupt cohesion that would otherwise be provided by interlocking mineral grains, making it easier for a mass movement to occur.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
