rain and wind
Weathering causes the granite to break down into small particles - sand. The sand becomes buried and compacts into sandstone. If the sandstone continues to be buried and comes into close contact with high heat, such as magma, it can be turned into quartzite.
sunlight does not break down rocks
by weathering.weathering can break down soil by the wind,water, and even erosion
I think both because the process of breaking down a rock is caused by the rock splitting--not in even chunks, but still splitting.
rain and wind
Common Granite
It takes a long time because there are different materials in it.
CFCs
It is because granite cliffs are stronger and more stable than Clay cliffs since Clay would break down easly from erosion.
It breaks down the rocks
The process that breaks down granite into sediments is weathering.
fossil
Yes.
it can cause a fire if a house get knocked down and the electrical break a fire can start
Gravestones fade over time due to exposure to the elements like sunlight, rain, and wind. These factors can break down the materials of the gravestone and cause discoloration and erosion, leading to fading over the years. Additionally, pollutants in the air can contribute to the degradation of the stone's surface.
