Answer 1

Cohesion

Question 2

A phenomenon in which the strength and stiffness of a soil is reduced by earthquake shaking or other rapid loading

Answer 2

Liquefaction

Question 3

A pile of sand keeps from spreading out like a liquid because the weight of the sand keeps the grains stuck together in their current arrangement, mostly out of static friction. This weight and pressure is called
