Weathering can break away less resistant parts of the rock and leave behind the more resistant parts.

how humanes change the rate of weathering
what do humans do to increase the rate of weathering
what factor determine the rate of weathering
a rock would have a lower rate of weathering when it has more surface area exposed to weathering.

what do humans do to increase the rate of weathering
Rock type, mineral content, degree of compaction, location of rock, rate & consistency of weathering agent.
what factor determine the rate of weathering
weathering and erosion
the causes of weathering are water, wind, and ice. -your welcome.
a rock would have a lower rate of weathering when it has more surface area exposed to weathering.
factors that affect the rate of mechanical weathering?
more surface area= faster rate of weathering
Gravity and water are two causes of physical weathering.
There are many causes of weathering. Some of the main causes of weathering are:Thermal stressFrost weatheringOcean wavesPressure releaseSalt-crystal growthBiological effects
