Does a cold climate help mechanical weathering?

No. mechanical weathering is the breaking and separating of rock or other materials. In order for mechanical weathering to occur you need water or some kind of mass movement. the only erosional agent which works with mechanical weathering are creep and solifluction, but mechanical weathering itself cannot happen because if it is too cold the frost wedging cannot happen becasue the water would freeze in contact and would not expand


What are sound waves called?

Sound waves are called mechanical waves cause they need a material medium for their flow. Not only are they mechanical, but compression & lonqitudinal. -Apex:)


What are three causes of chemical weathering?

Chemical weathering is the dissolution, carbonation, oxidation, or hydrolysis of rock and mineral by chemical means only, mostly from reactions with water or the acids contained in rainwater.Other materials are formed in the process. Warm, tropical climates are ideal environments for chemical weathering to take place as the chemical reactions are quickened by the bountiful rain and warm temperatures. Water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, living organisms, and acid precipitation.


Is milk good for watering plants?

Not likely. Plants do just as well with water, being able to synthesize all its own nutrients and vitamins and proteins. The only thing you would achieve with watering plants with milk is increase bacterial growth in and around the plant soils, which may actually be decremental to the plant, as well as create a foul smell. no.it will cause the plant and have fungus....... no.it will cause the plant and have fungus.......


Consumers that eat only plants?

A consumer that only eats plants is an herbivore. In humans, the practice of not consuming animal products is known as veganism.

Is it true that plants can only cause mechanical weathering?

No, plants can also cause chemical weathering. For example, some plants release acids that can break down rocks over time. Additionally, plant roots can grow into cracks in rocks, causing them to break apart.


What is Ephemeral Streams?

One that's formed only from mechanical weathering.


Type of physical weathering?

Therew is only to types of weathering in my knowledge and they are Mechanical and Chemical (in scientific term). Mechanical is also know as physical.


Does mechanical weathering change a rocks chemicals?

Mechanical weathering does not change a rock's chemical composition; it only breaks the rock into smaller pieces. Chemical weathering, on the other hand, alters a rock's chemical composition through processes like oxidation, hydrolysis, and dissolution.


Plants and animals cause weathering?

no thay don't because only things like water and ice and rocks and stuff like that


What kind of weathering involves only a reduction in bedrock regolith mineral particles?

Physical weathering, such as frost wedging or abrasion, can cause a reduction in the size of bedrock regolith mineral particles without changing their chemical composition. This type of weathering does not alter the minerals themselves, but only breaks them down into smaller fragments.


How the rates of mechanical and chemical weathering might differ in the Congolese rain forest and the Siberian steppes?

The rates of mechanical weathering does not affect anything since the chemical properties remain unchanged. Only chemical weathering affects the chemical properties of an object.


Which property of a rock remains unchanged by mechanical weathering?

The mineral composition of a rock remains unchanged by mechanical weathering, which only affects the physical structure of the rock by breaking it into smaller pieces or changing its shape.


Mechanical weathering and chemical weathering?

Mechanical weathering involves the physical breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces without changing their chemical composition, usually through processes like freeze-thaw cycles or root wedging. Chemical weathering, on the other hand, alters the chemical composition of rocks through reactions with water, oxygen, or acids, resulting in the dissolution or breakdown of minerals. Both processes work together to break down rocks and contribute to the overall weathering of Earth's surface.


What is it called when rocks break down without changing in chemical composition chemical weathering oxidation leaching or mechanical weathering?

Mechanical weathering refers to the process where rocks break down physically without changing their chemical composition. This can include processes like freezing and thawing, abrasion, or root wedging.

What is mechanically weathering?

Mechanical weathering is the process of breaking down rocks into smaller pieces through physical forces such as temperature changes, frost action, and root growth. This type of weathering does not change the chemical composition of the rock, only its physical appearance.
