factors that affect the rate of mechanical weathering?
weathering and erosion most likely affect a mountain overtime by making the mountain shorter.
There are not many factors which do not affect weathering in rocks.Two factors do not affect weathering are:Wind, sea and river erosion does not have any impact. No erosive processes cause weathering directly. Glaciers, however, may influence the climate of a region to the extent that more freeze-thaw weathering occursThe rock cycle does not affect weathering. This includes all actions and movements of rocks, though uplift and fault movement may cause more exposure to weathering, which may increase the rate of weathering
Weathering can effect erosion in that the absence of support from wind and brine pounding against the rock (weathering) just simply lets the dirt, gravel, etc. to just slide down (erosion).
weathering and erosion of the surface
Weathering and erosion are two factors that affect the geomorphology of the Earth. They change a plain by altering its surface through the decomposition and transport of rock materials.
1. WEATHERING a. physical weathering/mechanical weathering b. chemical weathering 2. EROSION a. erosion by water b. erosion by wind c. erosion by ice/glaciers 3. MASS MOVEMENT a. landslide b. mudslide 4. TECTONIC PLATE MOVEMENT
Climate can affect weathering and erosion. The 2 factors include temperature and moisture. Warm climates favor chemical weathering while cold climates favor physical weathering. Dissolving Rock.

Human activities influence different factors that affect the rock cycle, for example, soil erosion and weathering. Human activity such as mining affects rocks' weathering, affecting the rock cycle. Other human activities such as farming affect soil erosion, and soil erosion is a factor that affects the rock cycle.
it makes them smaller.
strong winds of a tornado assist weathering/erosion/deposition
Some factors that affect the rate of weathering are the type of rock, the altitude and the climate.

it affects it on its amount of water
