Some weathered rocks have rust streaks due to the iron content in the rocks. When rocks that have ferrous iron are weathered there will be rust streaks present.
Temperature, rainfall, vegetation, animal activity, type of rock being weathered.
All rocks are some arrangement of Earth's magma. Igneous rocks are hardened magma. Sedimentary rock are from weathered material from igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic rocks. Metamorphic rocks have the same composition but are subject to extreme heat and pressure and hence change their crystal structure.

A rock can be weathered by water and wind.Rocks can be eroded by abrasion from particles carried by water, wind, or ice.One way is wind over time can wear a rock down.Another is water can erode something like sand into finer particles on a beach.A third way rock can be weathered is friction against another object can wear something down over a long period of time.:-)

Rocks can be weathered by the wind or rain, or if water gets in some of the cracks, it would break apart
Some possible rocks that can have white streaks include quartz, marble, and gypsum. White streaks can also be found in other minerals and rocks that contain light-colored minerals such as feldspar or calcite. The presence of white streaks in a rock can be indicative of certain mineral compositions.
yes !
A rock will breakdown physically into some type of sediment. Sediments such as: dirt, clay, sand, and pebbles. They can also breakdown chemically in solution.

Some rocks might undergo chemical weathering, but it wouldn't be considered rusting unless the rock was at least partially composed of iron.
If a rock has iron in it, the iron can rust when exposed to air and moisture. That will look brown or dark orange.
Some examples of weathered rock inculde the Grand Canyon and Devil's tower.
Your teacher does not want to hear from some anonymous person on the internet about THEIR school's rocks. Go find some rocks in YOUR area and see if they are being weathered by wind or rain or freezing or earthquakes or chemicals or anything else.
