Old tombstones that can no longer be easily read are an example of weathering true or false?
True. Weathering can cause erosion and fading of inscriptions on tombstones over time, making them difficult to read.
Does age affect the hardness of sedimentary rocks?
Yes. Because sedimentary rocks are often found on the surface of the earth, they are easily exposed to weathering. The longer a rock is out in the open, the softer it will become due to weathering, until it turns into sand. (This process takes millions of years depending on the size of the rock, however.)
Does granite or limestone last longer in normal rain?
Granite lasts longer as it is far more resistant to chemical weathering.
How does climate affect soil and weathering?
The soil soon becomes dirt and is no longer soil
How does elevation affect the rate at which rock weathering?
It's harness is going to take longer to grow
How do plants cause mechanical weathering-?
it cracks a rock by the roots reaching it and the longer you wait, the more it will crack until it finally just brakes
What is the main different between weathering and erosion?
Weathering is a process that involves breaking up of rocks into smaller parts while erosion refers to the movement of soil from one place to another. The main difference between these two processes is that erosion takes place within a short period of time while weathering takes a longer period of time.

Why does rock bumpiness vary?
In an otherwise smooth rock, the minerals that are more resistant to weathering and erosion will survive these processes longer, resulting in a smooth but bumpy surface.
Why do you think wooden raquets in tennis are no longer used?
They are no longer used as they were very heavy than the present racquets. And they can be easily broken as they were wood.
True or false chemical weathering produces rock particles with the same mineral makeup as the rock they came from?
False. They are similar but different. As the particles react with exposure to weathering & ultra-violet and other stimuli they change and thus lose natural ligand bonding and no longer adhere to the substrate.
How many years can pennies last?
They easily last 30 to 40 years, if not longer.
