What can be mechanical or chemical erosion and weathering?
the answer is maybe a mechanical is the time where u run but the chemical is when you see not the tie so the right answer is the mechanical the time
How is weathering different than erosion?
weathering is part of erosion there are two types of erosion mechanical and chemical. chemical refers to elements such as oxygen and Iron which cause a chemical change such as rust and oxidation mechanical weathering is when rocks or materials are separated by water mass movement etc
Can limestone be worn away?
Yes. Limestone is susceptible to chemical and mechanical weathering and erosion.
What is the process that breaks down rocks chemically?
It's called chemical weathering. Think acid rain.
In general what causes desert pavement A. Wind erosion B. Water erosion C. Mechanical weathering D. Chemical weathering?
wind erosin
What are three different ways that rocks can be worn down by abrasion?
Weathering, pressure, and erosion.
What is the effect of climate in localization and concentration of a mineral?
Intense weathering and erosion will tend to concentrate minerals through chemical or mechanical means.
What are 2 ways that rocks are broken down into smaller pieces?
weathering and erosion!! if I'm right comment yes , even though i am RIGHT!
What pathway in the rock cycle might rock take next if it is subjected to uplift?
It will start to experience chemical and mechanical weathering, along with erosion.
Information of mechanical control of soil erosion?
Mechanical erosion control measures are implemented to minimize onsite and offsite impacts of these activities, as well as to rehabilitate degraded lands. Often, mechanical erosion controls are applied in combination with vegetative erosion control techniques.
How can nature change the rock cycle?
By weathering and erosion. The types of weathering used is:physical weathering- when a plant grows inside a rock and the roots break it apart; abrasion- mechanical weathering - erosion- and chemical weathering - acid rain, water weathering and erosion.
Whats the definition of erosion?
The physical processes of erosion are called corrasion or mechanical erosion; the chemical processes are called corrosion or chemical erosion. But most examples of erosion include some of both corrasion and corrosion. The agents of erosion are gravity, ice, water (eluvian erosion) and wind (eolian erosion). Erosion is sometimes restricted to transportation, excluding weathering. Erosion does not include mass wasting, unless erosion is being discussed in a tectonic context, in which case exhumation may be the better term. An easy way of putting that is erosion is the movement of an object caused by weather. By:Gabriel simatupang 4-5 C (highscope tb simatupang)
