EOSC 114 FINAL EXAM ACTUAL 2025/2026 QUESTIONS AND 100% CORRECT ANSWERS Landslide Impacts - Answer -1. Population density 2. Cost of infrastructure 3. Population preparedness why are landslide fatalities underestimated? - Answer -most fatalities are associated with the landslide trigger (earthquakes, floods, volcanoes) classification of landslides - Answer -1) Type of material 2) Type of movement 3) Rate of movement - if you can watch them Type of material - Answer -Rock, Soil/Earth, Mud, Debris (mixture of rock, earth, trees, water, and whatever was on the slope) type of motion - Answer -1. fall 2. slides - cohesive block moves on failure surface - curved/bowl shaped failure: rotational slide - flat/planar failure surface: translational slide 3. flows - fluid motion 4. complex movements falls - Answer -- occurs on very steep slopes - material detaches because of weakness - falls due to gravity and is very fast Need assistance on Online classes, Exams & Assignments?
