A venn diagram for weathering and erosion?

Weathering is the breaking down of rock and erosion carries it away. Both of them contribute in some way to the formation of new soil.


What are the cause and effect of the weathering and erosion?

Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller fragments, while erosion transports these fragments to another location. Weathering is caused by factors like temperature changes and water, while erosion is mainly caused by factors such as wind, water, and glaciers. Together, weathering and erosion shape the Earth's surface over time.


How was the canyon create?

the grand canyon was made by weathering and erosion <3 :D i answered some of yalls questions now answer mine what effected the grand canyon the most weathering or erosion and how did weathering and erosion effect the grand canyon? plzz answer plzzzzzzzzzz thank u <3


Why do some places have more weathering and erosion than other?

I really do not know!


What causes weathering and erosion in on the moon need yours or some like?

Sunlight


What are some fast causes of weathering and erosion?

Some fast causes of weathering and erosion include intense rainfall leading to rapid erosion of soil and rocks, strong winds causing mechanical weathering by moving and breaking down rock particles, and sudden temperature changes causing rocks to expand and contract rapidly, leading to cracking and breaking down. Human activities such as deforestation and construction can also accelerate weathering and erosion processes.


Does weathering and erosion affects all rocks on the earths surface?

Yes, weathering and erosion affect all rocks on Earth's surface to some extent. Weathering breaks down rock into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces to new locations. These processes are constant and can shape the landscape over time.


What are careers for weathering and erosion?

The agents for weathering and erosion are natural. I know off no career that would replace these natural agents. However, if you mean careers understanding or preventing them then Geology, Geography, farming and Engineering would be your choices.


What is the difference between between weathering erosion and deposition?

Erosion is the moving of something, weathering is the breeaking down, and depositon is depositing some particles or minerals to some area such as a delta. The difference between weathering and erosion is very simple. Weathering can be caused by both chemical and mechanical. Mechanical Weathering is when rocks are broken into smaller pieces WITHOUT changing them chemically. While Chemical Weathering occurs when the chemical composition of rock changes. This happens rapidly and mostly in tropical areas. Erosion is when water, gravity, ice or wind breaks down pieces of sediment into smaller, smaller pieces. This is natural. Deposition is exactly what the previous answer said. Examples MAY include a river depositing pollution, Oil, sediment, water, fresh water into the ocean. -Richlee 2k or just Google it for a more professional answer


Is erosion chemical weathering?

No. Erosion usually involves the transportation of material from one place to another place. Chemical weathering involves the reaction of natural Earth materials with acidic fluids, causing dissolution.


Are weathering and erosion catastrophic events?

No, most of them are slow and not that harsh events which make the rock older and older. In other cases some catastrophic events make erosion become faster. Erosion is a slow process in which the rock becomes worned out. Weathering is the weather which erodes the rocks slowly.


What are some similarities and differences between physical and chemical weathering?

Similarities: Both processes result in the breakdown of rocks and minerals. Both can occur through natural processes like temperature changes, water, and biological activity. Differences: Physical weathering involves the physical breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces without changing their chemical composition, while chemical weathering alters the chemical composition of rocks through reactions with substances like water or acids. Physical weathering does not involve chemical reactions, while chemical weathering does.
