Which force does not break down rocks in nature?

Magnetic force does not break down rocks in nature. Rocks are typically broken down by mechanical weathering (e.g. frost wedging, root growth) and chemical weathering (e.g. oxidation, dissolution).

How does soil contribute in breaking down rocks?

Soil doesn't really contribute to the breaking down of rocks soil is the end product of the breaking down of rocks. Rocks are broken down by weathering processes such as physical weathering, chemical weathering or biological weathering the material after the rock breaks down combined with organic material creates soil.


How do humans break down rocks?

Humans break down rocks through mechanical and chemical weathering processes. Mechanical weathering involves physical forces like wind, water, and ice breaking down rocks into smaller pieces. Chemical weathering involves chemical reactions that break down the minerals in rocks, often aided by factors like water, acids, or living organisms. Over time, these weathering processes contribute to the breakdown and erosion of rocks into soil.


How does denudation affects rocks?

This is collective process of weathering and erosion that break and wear down rocks.


What involves ways that rocks break down without changes to what?

Weathering involves ways that rocks break down without changes to their chemical state. Weathering involves mechanical forces e.g. wind and rainfall rather than chemical energy in disintegration or rocks.


How do physical weathering and chemical weathering affect rocks in the same way.?

Both physical and chemical weathering break down rocks by weakening their structure. Physical weathering involves the mechanical breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces, while chemical weathering involves the alteration of the rock's composition through chemical reactions. Over time, these processes can cause rocks to crumble, crack, and eventually disintegrate.
