The breaking down of rocks is weathering. Their movement from one place to another place is erosion.
This is called weathering
Rocks erode in nature through processes like water erosion, wind erosion, freeze-thaw cycles, and chemical weathering. Water erodes rocks by wearing them down with the force of flowing water, while wind erosion occurs when particles carried by wind collide with rocks, gradually breaking them down. Freeze-thaw cycles cause rocks to crack as water penetrates cracks, freezes, and expands. Chemical weathering involves the breakdown of rocks through chemical reactions with substances like water and acids.
The process of rocks and other materials on the Earth's surface being broken down into smaller pieces by natural forces such as wind and water is known as weathering. This gradual process helps to shape the landscape over time by breaking down and fragmenting rocks into smaller particles.
Weathering: The process of rocks breaking down due to exposure to the elements such as water, wind, and temperature changes. Erosion: The wearing away of rocks by natural forces like water, ice, and wind. Biological activity: Activities of plants or animals can contribute to the breaking down of rocks over time. Chemical weathering: Chemical reactions that dissolve or alter the minerals in rocks causing them to break apart. Tectonic forces: Earth's movements can exert pressure on rocks leading to fractures and breakage.
Weathering is the process that involves the breaking down of rocks on the Earth's surface. This can occur through physical processes such as freeze-thaw cycles or chemical processes like acid rain. Over time, weathering contributes to the formation of soil and sediments.

yes wind and soil erosion both contributes to breaking down of rocks.You can google it and see the pictures of beautiful rocks have been shaped due to wind erosion.and water erosion breaks down the rocks and even make its surface smooth.
Wind and water
Wind and water
Rocks are broken down by physical and chemical weathering.The three ways are water / waves , wind , and plants.yes , water/waves , wind, and plants
water can change the earths surface by breaking down rocks into sediment and then the wind blowing them to a different spot to change the earth.(An example is the Grand Canyon.)

Erosion is the process of wearing away and breaking down rocks and soil through the action of wind, water, or ice, leading to their movement from one place to another.
