Lab Lesson 10: Mass Wasting Question 1 In Lab Exercise, Step 1, what indication is there that the slope in Figure 10.10 might be unstable? Question 2 In Lab Exercise, Step 2, what type of move ... ment has occurred in Figure 10.11 Question 3 What types of particles were involved in the movement seen in Figure 10.11? Question 4 Based on what you can see in Figure 10.11, what type of mass wasting event was this? Question 5 If you knew that the event in Figure 10.11 was the result of a volcanic eruption, how would you classify it? Question 6 In Lab Exercise, Step 3, what is the distinguishing feature of the mass wasting seen in Figure 10.12? It has a stepped appearance. Question 7 What type of mass wasting event occurred in Figure 10.12? slump Question 8 In Lab Exercise, Step 4, what indication is there that the slope in Figure 10.13 might be unstable? Question 9 Under what conditions is the slope in Figure 10.13 likely to fail A heavy rainfall is likely to cause a debris flow. In Lab Exercise, Step 5, what type of movement is occurring in Figure 10.14? creep Question 11 What indication of slope movement is evident in Figure 10.14? tilted fence poles Question 12 In Lab Exercise, Step 6, what indication is there that the slope in Figure 10.15 might be unstable?
