Weathering of rocks occur on the outer surface.

Which process weathering or erosion is easier to see actually taking place?
Why is erosion easier to see than weatheringHow can the process of erosion take placeWhat caused the weathering or erosion take placeWhere does weather erosion mostly take placeDoes weathering take place before or after erosionDoes weathering need to occur before erosion takes placeDoes weathering must take place before erosionWhy is weathering important to the process of erosionWhich process is faster erosion or weatheringWhat does ice have to do with the process of weathering and erosionB1TCH
What process needs to take place in order for ingneous rock to become sedimentary rock?
Igneous rock can become sedimentary rock through the process of weathering and erosion, where the igneous rock is broken down into smaller pieces called sediments. These sediments are then transported and deposited in layers, where they become compacted and cemented together by pressure and time to form sedimentary rock.
What process is it when a rock breaks down due to weathering and is moved to another place?
Erosion
What is a similarity between weathering and eroison?
Weathering is the Break down of the rocks and Eroison is the movement of weathered rock material from one place to another.
How long does onion skin weathering take?
Onion skin weathering can take thousands to millions of years to occur, depending on the climate, the type of rock, and the rate of weathering. It is a slow geologic process where outer layers of rock gradually peel away due to expansion and contraction from temperature changes.
What happens to rocks when its windy?
Immediately, nothing. However over long periods of time, weathering can take place. This is where the wind patterns begin to shape and carve the rock.
When does deposition begin to take place?
Right after weathering and erosion
What caused the weathering or erosion take place?
Your mom and moning
How can physical weathering increase the rate of chemical weathering?
Physical weathering breaks rock down into much smaller pieces and gives the original rock a much greater surface area which, when exposed to chemical agents such as carbonic acid, reacts at a much faster rate than it would had the larger rock not undergone physical weathering.
What is residual rocks?
Residual rocks are rocks that remain in place after weathering and erosion have removed the softer or weaker material around them. These rocks are the result of physical and chemical weathering processes that break down and reshape the original rock material in a particular area.
What process must take place to change igneous or metamorphic rock to sedimentary rock?
All rocks on Earth take part in the "Rock Cycle". For an igneous or metamorphic rock to change into a sedimentary rock, they must undergo weathering and erosion by wind, water, and/or ice. The broken down pieces of rock (sediments) settle into layers that form a sedimentary rock.
The breaking down of rock by physical change?
The breaking down of a Rock 'in situ' is known as Weathering. And when this Weathering takes place by Physical Change [ The Chemical Composition of Rock is not altered ] then it is known as 'Mechanical Weathering'.Processes:It takes place by the following mechanisms:-Thermal ExpansionFrost DisintegrationPressure ReleaseHydraulic ActionSalt Crystal GrowthBiological Weathering
