Mechanical weathering increases the surface area that can be attacked by chemical weathering.
Freezing and thawing of ice which exists in small cracks and fissures in a body of rock will hasten its rate of mechanical weathering.
the two factors are erosion and oxidation.
It really depends on the hardness of the rock. Soft rock, like sandstone, will weather more quickly than harder rock.
cloud, sunshine, rainfall, pressure. etc.
depressants affect the heart rate by its heart rate
I dont know :d !!
I dont know :d !!
factors that affect the rate of mechanical weathering?
ans it affects the temperature and the conditions
It would increase the rate of chemical weathering due to the increase in surface area that becomes available to attack from chemical reactions.
Tropical areas experience the highest rate of mechanical and chemical weathering of rock.
A rise in temperature speeds chemical reactions.
nope XD yea it does my lame teacher said idk how tho
Temperature, pressure, time
The rate of chemical weathering increases when a rock becomes more mechanically weathered, also called abrasion.
Animals cause mechanical weathering by making rocks more exposed to the elements through digging, nesting, clawing, and burrowing. The additional exposure causes rocks to weather at a faster rate as ice and water can now penetrate the rock and cause chemical weathering as well.
Define mechanical weathering using your own words.
