Building a mine underground can cause physical weathering as the excavation process exposes rocks to changes in pressure and temperature, leading to cracking and breaking. It can also induce chemical weathering through interactions with water and air, which can alter the composition of the rocks surrounding the mine. Over time, these weathering processes can weaken the integrity of the mine structures.
Gophers cause physical weathering. They dig burrows in the ground, allowing more rock to be exposed.
Freeze-thaw weathering occurs when water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes, expands, and creates pressure that can cause the rock to fracture or break apart. This process is common in regions with climates that experience freezing temperatures.
It is Carbolican weathering, not many people have heard of it but that is what it is called. Carbolican weathering is a rare kind of weathering that can be deadly, like sinkholes. Since not many people have heard of this weathering no one has come up with an explanation for when and why sinkholes will appear. This is very sad but true. As many fatal appearances happen we still try to figure out how to stop these sinkholes before they start.
Acid precipitation is an agent of chemical weathering. It occurs when rain, snow, or fog has a high acidic content due to pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which can cause rocks to break down and deteriorate.
Weathering can affect various features on Earth's surface, including rock formations, soils, and landscapes. Physical weathering can cause rock formations to break down into smaller pieces, while chemical weathering can alter the composition of rocks and mineral grains. Over time, weathering can contribute to the formation of unique landforms, such as arches, hoodoos, and spires.
Weathering of any kind can sometimes cause problems, like erosion of topsoil. Biological weathering, where the weathering is caused by living things (plants and animals), can cause the same kinds of problems.

It reacts with The minerals in The rocks, such as in feldspar.
Physical weathering
The 2 kinds of weathering are the Mechanical or Physical Weathering and the Mechanical Weathering.
physical weathering
Physical weathering
It is water weathering
yes it does depend on what kind but it can cause land slides on hills and can causes houses to fall
