How long does it take a natural arch is formed?

Actually an arch is formed using these steps: Step1:Waves crash against the cliff and erode joints in the cliff face this creates a small hole in the Cliff or a notch Step 2: Waves erode the notch making it bigger it is now a cave Step 3: The cave gets bigger and eventually punches a whole in the cliff forming an arch. Now that an arch has been made this is what will happen to the arch in the future! Step 4: the arch will eventually collapse due to further erosion and gravity the arch will collapse this leaves a pillar of rock disconnected from the land this is called a stack Step 5: The bottom of the stack is eroded between the high and low tide marks, unsupported chunks of rock will now collapse leaving a spindly structure called a Pinnacle. Step 6: eventually due to MORE erosion the pinnacle collapses leaving a stump

How do geographical stacks form?

Geological stacks are formed through a combination of erosion and weathering processes, typically in coastal areas. They are created when softer rock erodes away faster than harder rock, leaving behind a tall vertical column of harder rock. Over time, continued erosion can cause the stack to become isolated from the mainland.
