How can waves turn rock to sand?
Waves can turn rock into sand through a process called weathering. The constant pounding force of waves carries sediment and erodes the rocks, breaking them down into smaller pieces over time. This process, known as abrasion, gradually transforms larger rocks into smaller particles that eventually become sand.
How waves can turn rock into sand?
Waves can turn rock into sand through a process called abrasion. As waves crash onto the rock, they carry sediment and other abrasive materials that gradually wear away the surface of the rock, breaking it down into smaller particles. Over time, this constant pounding and grinding action results in the creation of sand from the original rock material.
Where does the sand on beaches come from?

What can we do to stop the waves taking the sand away?

What do waves make when they break rock into tiny pieces?
Waves break rock into tiny pieces through a process called abrasion. This results in the formation of sediment, such as sand or pebbles, which accumulate along the shore.
How does a speck of sand turn into a sedimentary rock?

How a rock changes to sand?
Grains of sand are really very tiny particles of rock. It takes time and certain kinds of weather to turn rock into sand. Rain, frost, and wind can do the job. At beaches, the tide hitting against the rocks forms sand. Salt water, too, forms sand by dissolving minerals in the rocks.
What does sand turn into when under high pressure and high temperature?
When sand is subjected to high pressure and high temperature, it can transform into a type of metamorphic rock called quartzite. Quartz grains in the sand recrystallize and fuse together under these conditions, resulting in the formation of a hard, compact rock with a granular texture.
Giant tidal waves which wash away sand and rock from beaches are caused by?
It's caused by the moons gravitational pull
What is the peak of a sand dune?
Waves of sand, like waves of water, can be said to have crests.
