What name is this process when rocks break down?
the process is called weathering when the rocks break down
Which force does not break down rocks in nature?
Magnetic force does not break down rocks in nature. Rocks are typically broken down by mechanical weathering (e.g. frost wedging, root growth) and chemical weathering (e.g. oxidation, dissolution).

What are the processes that break down rocks?
Weathering
Does weathering break rocks down?

How rocks from a cliff can be broken down to become sand?
Erosion is the main force that acts on rocks to break them down into sand. Water getting into cracks, freezing and expanding also helps to break down rocks.
What do igneous rocks become when you break down and settle into layer?
sedimentary rocks
How do temperature and pressure contribute to the breakdown of minerals in rocks?
Temperature and pressure can cause minerals in rocks to break down through a process called weathering. When rocks are exposed to high temperatures and pressures, the minerals within them can expand and contract, leading to cracks and fractures. This allows water and other substances to penetrate the rock, causing chemical reactions that break down the minerals over time.
What happens when rocks fall down a cliff?
