Why is physical weathering also known as mechanical weathering?
Physical weathering is caused by elements of nature. It is known as mechanical weathering to distinguish it from the other types of weathering namely chemical and biological. It occurs mechanically, by the breakdown due to natural components.
Can you give me some notes about weathering?
There are two types of weathering: chemical and physical. Chemical weathering is said to occur when the chemical compounds of rocks are changed. Physical weathering happens due to wind, rain, or other natural occurrences.
What are the 2 main types of weathering?
The two main types of weathering are physical weathering and chemical weathering. Physical weathering involves water, wind and dust scraping away at rocks, while chemical weathering involves chemicals, usually acids, breaking down the rock.
What are to kinds of weathering?
the types of weathering are physical and chemical. physical: like rain and ice breaking a rock. chemical: like acid rain breaking down a rock.
Is abrasion physical weathering or chemical weathering?
it is physical weathering
What physical processes produce fertile soil?
Some of the physical processes that can produce fertile soil are the various types of rock weathering. There is mechanical weathering and thermal weathering that causes rocks to break down into soil particles.
