Slump
Use a thread to measure the length of curved line AB. Put a knot on the thread near one of its end. Place this knot on on point A. Now, place a small portion of thread along the line, keeping it taut using your fingers and thumbs. Hold the thread at this end point with one hand. Using other hand, stretch a little more portion of the thread along the curved line. Go on repeating this process till the other end B of the curved line is reached
A section of a cylinder along its length. The cross-section will be a quadrilateral. There will be 4 straight edges where the quadrilateral meets the curved face, and two curved edges from the top and bottom of the cylinder.
A cone can be slid along a flat surface by holding one end and gently pushing it along.

When a block of material moves downslope along a curved surface, the type of mass movement is _____.
When a block of material moves downslope along a curved surface, the type of mass movement is _____.
a slump
When a block of material moves down slopes along a curved surface, the type of mass movement is called a rockslide. This is a rapid, downslope movement of a coherent rock mass along a planar or slightly curved surface.

The movement of material down slope along a curved surface is called creep. It is a slow, continuous process of particle-by-particle movement typically caused by gravity and can occur on various slope angles.
When a block of material moves down slope along a curved surface, it is called a rockslide. This type of mass movement involves the rapid sliding or falling of a coherent rock mass along a well-defined surface.
When a mass of material moves downslope along a curved surface, the process is called slumping. This can occur when the stability of the material is disrupted, causing it to slide or slump downwards due to gravity.
This is known as a landslide with a circular slip geometry.
