How do chemical and physical weathering work together to break down rock material?
well physical weathering is when it breaks down rocks and chemical weathering is when rocks are dissolved or loosened so i suppose that it would be that over a certain amount of time goes by, the more weathering occurs. i hope that answers your question! (:
