How are rocks weatherd?

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.


Why is it important to know and understand the qualities of various rock types?

If the rock is a soft one it will weather faster if it is a hard rock it will take longer to weather

Does mechanical weathering change a rock size?

Mechanical weathering can change the size of a rock by breaking it into smaller pieces through processes like frost wedging, root wedging, and abrasion. The physical forces acting on the rock cause it to fragment into smaller pieces without changing its chemical composition.

What happens to a rock's mineral composition during mechanical weathernig?

The minerals that are in a rock will influence how quick it weathers. Strong materials will not weather as quickly as loose materials.

When a sculptor uses a chisel on a rock, it undergoes a physical change, specifically a process known as mechanical weathering. The rock is physically broken down into smaller pieces through the force applied by the chisel.


Does mechanical weathering change a rocks chemicals?

Mechanical weathering does not change a rock's chemical composition; it only breaks the rock into smaller pieces. Chemical weathering, on the other hand, alters a rock's chemical composition through processes like oxidation, hydrolysis, and dissolution.


What force causes rock to change into a different rock?

Heat, pressure, weather, gravity, plate tectonics--all play a part in the rock cycle.
