What else can I help you with?
Which of the following is NOT a cause of mechanical weathering?
Temperature changes, such as freezing and thawing, is NOT a cause of mechanical weathering.
What is a chilly type of mechanical weathering?
Frost weathering is a type of mechanical weathering that occurs when water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes, and expands, causing the rock to break apart. This process is common in areas with frequent freezing and thawing cycles.
Which of these are not Not a source pf mechanical weathering?
Precipitation (source of chemical weathering) Plant roots (source of chemical weathering) Freezing and thawing (source of mechanical weathering) Human activities (source of mechanical weathering)
Frost wedging is a form of Chemical Mechanical or Biological weathering?
Frost wedging is a form of mechanical weathering caused by the repeated freezing and thawing of water in cracks in rocks.
true or fale the freezing and thawing of rocks cracks and breaks rock. this is a mechanical type of weathering?
True. The freezing and thawing of water in cracks and pores of rocks exerts pressure that can cause rocks to crack and break apart. This is known as frost wedging and is a type of mechanical weathering.
Is freezing and thawing chemical weathering or mechanical?
Freeze/thaw cycles are an example of mechanical weathering of rock.
Which of the following is NOT a cause of mechanical weathering?
Temperature changes, such as freezing and thawing, is NOT a cause of mechanical weathering.
What is the most important force of mechanical weathering in cool climates?
Freezing and thawing.
Freezing and thawing plant roots exfliation and are all examples of what process?
Physical weathering or mechanical weathering.
What is a chilly type of mechanical weathering?
Frost weathering is a type of mechanical weathering that occurs when water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes, and expands, causing the rock to break apart. This process is common in areas with frequent freezing and thawing cycles.
Is freezing and thawing classified as chemical weathering or mechanical weathering?
Freezing and thawing is classified as a type of mechanical weathering, specifically known as frost wedging. This process occurs when water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes and expands, causing the rock to break apart over time.
Which of these are not Not a source pf mechanical weathering?
Precipitation (source of chemical weathering) Plant roots (source of chemical weathering) Freezing and thawing (source of mechanical weathering) Human activities (source of mechanical weathering)
What are the effects of mechanical weathering?
Freezing And Thawing, Release of Preserve,Actions of Animals,plant growth,abrasion
Frost wedging is a form of Chemical Mechanical or Biological weathering?
Frost wedging is a form of mechanical weathering caused by the repeated freezing and thawing of water in cracks in rocks.
Mechanical Weathering?
In mechanical weathering, rocks are broken down into smaller pieces without changing their composition. Mechanical weathering is caused by freezing and thawing, release of pressure, plant growth, action of animals, and abrasion.
Classify freezing or thawing oxidation water dissolving chemicals in rock abrasion acid rain?
Freezing or thawing are classified as mechanical weathering. Water dissolving and oxidation of chemicals in rock acid rain are classified as chemical weathering.
true or fale the freezing and thawing of rocks cracks and breaks rock. this is a mechanical type of weathering?
True. The freezing and thawing of water in cracks and pores of rocks exerts pressure that can cause rocks to crack and break apart. This is known as frost wedging and is a type of mechanical weathering.
