Can physical and chemical change happen to the same object at the same time?

yes,sometimes both changes occur together. For example, when a person eats chocolate and then digests it a physical and a chemical change takes place. When the person chews the chocolate and breaks it into smaller pieces - it is a physical change. No new substances have been formed yet.Once acted upon by saliva and other digestive juices, the chocolate is broken down into other simpler substances, which can be absorbed by the blood. This is a chemical change.

eating of chocolate : biting cuts the chocolate - physical change( it still remains chocolate)
digesting it is chemical change

or crinkle up some aluminum foil in a bowl of acid at the same time.

Is hammering gold into foil a chemical or physical change?
physical change, because you are changing the physical property of the object. you are causing the change by hammering it. If you were to put some kind of chemical on it and it changed the physical property of the object that would be a chemical change.

Why is change of color a physical change?
Because a physical change just alters the appearance of an object, where as a chemical change alters the texture or state of an object.
