mechanical weathering breaks it down into gradual sloped hills
factors that affect the rate of mechanical weathering?
I dont know :d !!

You can look it up in Uranus
Chemical weathering occurs more rapidly in warm, wet climates, and mechanical weathering occurs more in cold climates.
When rocks are broken down without any change to their chemical compositions it is mechanical weathering. Causes of mechanical weathering are Freezing and melting of water, Abrasion, when the rock is weather by an abrasive agent such as wind and sand, and exfoliation occurs when a rock is brought to the surface.
The rates of mechanical weathering does not affect anything since the chemical properties remain unchanged. Only chemical weathering affects the chemical properties of an object.

Chemical weathering is when chemicals such as chemicals excreted from plants wear away at the earth's surface. Mechanical weathering is when natural forces wear away at the earth's surface such as rock.
The surface area of a rock has a big affect on the rate of weathering. The higher the surface area of the rock in proportion to its overall mass will result in a quicker rate of weathering of the rock.
The disadvantage of weathering is the deterioration of a surface.
they both shape the earths surface and so in that way it shapes rocks. Mechanical weathering has release of pressure freezing and thawing and so on and so on
