Some types are thermal stress, frost wedging, abrasion, pressure fractures (pressure release), hydraulic action, and salt crystal expansion.
Physical Weathering (aka Mechanical Weathering) is the main type of weathering in deserts.
Physical weathering.
False. Physical weathering is the type of weathering in which the physical properties of a material are altered without changing its chemical composition. This can include changes in size, shape, or texture.

Frost action is a type of physical weathering caused by the expansion of water when it freezes and contracts when it thaws. This repeated freeze-thaw cycle weakens rocks and can lead to the breakdown of rock surfaces.
If you meant weathering that is caused by water; physical weathering is the answer.

Yes! Erosion is a type of Mechanical Weathering. Erosion made the Grand Canyon, and other landforms like it.
