What mechanical weathering process results in enlargement of fractures and extension of them deeper into large boulders and bedrock?

Frost wedging would be the primary process. Other mechanical weathering processes resulting in the extension of rock fracturing could include pressure release from uplift, and plant root growth.


Why was there a sound when a bottle of wine was opened?

The sound results from the difference in air pressure in the bottle as the cork is removed.


What does glacial polish results from?

Glacial polish results from the grinding action of glaciers as they move and slide over bedrock, smoothing and polishing the surface of rocks. This process is primarily caused by the abrasion of rock particles and debris carried by the glacier against the bedrock.


The gouging of bedrock by rock fragments dragged by glaciers results in?

These are known as striations. Please see the related link.


What is the gouging of bedrock by rock fragments dragged by glaciers results?

The gouging of bedrock by rock fragments dragged by glaciers results in the formation of grooves, scratches, and striations on the surface of the bedrock. These features, known as glacial striations, provide evidence of the direction and movement of past glaciers. These marks can also help geologists determine the extent and timing of glacial activity in an area.


Why A thin-walled can will collapse when the air inside is removed by a vacuum pump?

A thin-walled can collapses when the air inside is removed by a vacuum pump because the external air pressure acting on the outside of the can is greater than the pressure inside the can, causing it to buckle under the imbalance of forces. This results in the can being crushed as it is no longer able to withstand the pressure differential.


Is the fan-shaped pile of broken rock fragments at the base of a steep bedrock slope or cliff?

The fan-shaped pile of broken rock fragments at the base of a steep bedrock slope or cliff is known as a talus slope or talus cone. This debris results from the weathering and erosion of the bedrock above, where gravity causes the rock fragments to accumulate at the base of the slope.
