The force behind weathering by thermal expansion and contraction is the repeated heating and cooling of rocks, causing them to expand and contract. This leads to the breaking down of rocks into smaller pieces due to the stress created by the expansion and contraction process.
Why are some intrusive rocks be left behind when rocks are worn away?
Intrusive rocks come into other rocks in a molten state and when they cool they are frequently very hard with interlocking cemented crystal structures. When erosion occurs it is easier for wind, ice and rain to wear down the rocks into which the igneous rocks were intruded than the hard igneous rocks themselves. This leaves the igneous rocks sticking up (like King Arther's Seat in Edinburgh or the Tours of Dartmoore) as prominent features.
