Plant growth is both a chemical and mechanical process. The roots secrete mild acids that dissolve minerals in rocks, and the plant's roots and stems can increase in size and force rocks apart inside cracks and crevices.
These are likely rock fissures or crevices, which provide shelter for animals. These burrows could also act as conduits for water and air circulation, creating a habitat that is both secure and well-ventilated for the animals that inhabit them.
Mechanical weathering.
Halite dissolving in water is a chemical process. When halite (sodium chloride) comes into contact with water, it dissociates into its constituent ions (sodium and chloride) through a chemical reaction. This process alters the chemical composition of the halite, distinguishing it from mechanical processes, which do not change the chemical structure of materials.
Rushing water is a physical phenomenon caused by the movement of water, and it is not related to mechanical, chemical, or nuclear processes. It is the result of the kinetic energy generated by the flow of water.
Coal is a chemical compound which contains chemical energy. To convert coal into mechanical energy, you use it (burn it) to produce heat and use the heat to boil water, the steam from which will drive a steam engine which delivers mechanical energy.

No, chemical because it involves water and water is a subject of Chemical Weathering not Mechanical.

I'm not sure if the act of letting water into wood, or a rock would fall under either chemical or mechanical. Probably more on the mechanical side.However, if the water freezes, thaws, and refreezes, then mechanical degradation can happen to the wood or stone.
The large intestine is mechanical digestion; it absorbs water and is involved in peristalsis. It has nothing to do with enzymes, which is chemical digestion.

The process is called weathering, and it can be either chemical or mechanical. Chemical weathering involves the breakdown of rocks through chemical reactions with substances like water or oxygen. Mechanical weathering, on the other hand, occurs when rocks are physically broken down into smaller pieces by forces such as water, wind, or ice.
