Is erosion a physical change or a chemical change?
This is a physical change because wind and erosion are part of the physical category. Chemical change is where things happen involving actual chemicals . Wether the chemicals are from nature or not , Chemicals are chemicals. hope this helped ;] ~Lily
What is a chemical or physical process in which rocks exposed to the weather are worn down by water wind or ice?
Smaller particles of rock are produced from larger particles.
Is breaking of a tree branch a physical or chemical change?
Yes, it is undoubtly physical itself. The cause of easy breaking eg. after chemical detoriation of its fibrous structure by molds can be chemical. The force by which it's breaking (wind, gravity) is physical however.
Three chemical processes that weather rock?
Wind, water, and heat.
Is abrasion a chemical or physical change?
In most situations, erosion is a physical process. It occurs when a medium (usually air or water) displaces another substance, changing its physical appearance and/or shape. One example is a steel plate that has a steady stream of water running or dripping on it. Over time, the water will create a depression in the steel, despite the steel being much harder than the water. Another example would be wind or rain washing sand from a hill, changing the shape, and eventually even the size, of the hill. The Silver Lake Sand Dunes on the west side of Michigan have been changed dramatically by the wind over the last 140 years, literally burying whole trees and even buildings. Sometimes the erosion process can contribute to chemical reactions. These reactions are called Erosion Corrosion or Flow Accelerated Corrosion. (Please see the related links below.)
What are different types of erosion?
Erosion is the proses by which the surface gets worn down , Erosion can be caused by natural Elements such a wind, water ice, and chemical!
Why does the amount of rock change over time?
Erosion caused by wind and water reduces its mass.

Erosion and weathering are caused mostly by?
wind and water.
Does earths tilt cause erosion?
N0- erosion is caused by wind and by water.
What is erosion caused by wind that can lower the land surface?
scour, or eolian erosion
Erosion is caused largely by wind and water?
Yes
Which process caused the Dust Bowl?
Wind erosion.
What are the five forces or erosion?
Wind erosion, liquid erosion, chemical/corrosive erosion, heat erosion, can't think of any more...
How do wind water and ice change the land?
water and ice and wind change the mountains by erosion
Is desert pavement commonly formed by water erosion?
No, desert pavement is caused by wind erosion - deflation.
In general what causes desert pavement A. Wind erosion B. Water erosion C. Mechanical weathering D. Chemical weathering?
wind erosin
