Wind and rain
weathering results in the disintegration of rocks on a large scale. then these rocks break-up and forms soil and the soil forms the soil profile.
Two forms of mechanical weathering are frost heaving and plant root wedging. All forms of mechanical weathering result in the breakage of rock into smaller size particles.
The weathering of asteroids. Fe2SiO4 + hn > Fe + FeSiO3 + O Forms a metallic crust.
Soil form by weathering of rocks...:)
acid rain is one.
It is called weathering.
When any type of rock undergoes weathering, it usually forms sedimentary rock. Weathering breaks down existing rocks into smaller pieces that get deposited and compressed to form sedimentary rocks over time.
Ice live
weathering occurs faster in warm and rainy climate. the rate of which soil forms depends on the climate and type of rock. so soil formation is faster when weathering is quicker too.
Mountains and Valleys.
Ice wedging is a form of mechanical weathering.
Physical weathering is any process that causes erosion. Volcanic eruptions, wind, precipitation and earthquakes are the most common forms.
