Freeze-thaw is an example of what type of weathering?
The process of which freeze-thaw or physical weathering takes place is rather simple. Firstly, water would get into cracks on a rock or hard material, and overnight, it would freeze. Secondly, because when water freezes, it expands, it therefore forces itself further into the rock; the crack is made larger. Lastly, this would created more space inside the rock, for more water to end up inside, and join in with the freeze-thaw, until finally, the rock would break.

What are some main agents of physical weathering?
Natural agents of physical weathering: Rain, sand (driven by the wind), sunlight, the freeze/thaw cycle. Man-made agents of physical weathering: Acid rain.

What are the three weather types which can erode rocks?
1) Physical weathering can be split into 2 subgroups-Freeze Thaw and Onion Skin! 2) Chemical Weathering! 3) Biological Weathering!

Why is freeze thaw weathering absoloutely vital if a glacier is going to be able to erode its valley?
Its to do with how it is able to form the glacier. There is a cylce where the ice can only cycle round and round if freeze thaw weathering is taking place, meaning that a glacier can erode its valley. The process of freeze thaw weathering erodes the valley.

it does
