Why are some rocks smooth and other are not?
Rocks become smooth through the process of weathering, which includes abrasion from wind, water, or ice over time. Rocks that are not smooth may have experienced less weathering or may be composed of harder materials that resist erosion. The smoothness of a rock can also depend on its location, as rocks in a riverbed or along a coastline are more likely to become smooth.
