Coastlines can be formed by - waves that erode the sand.
Rocks can erode due to weathering, which includes physical processes like freeze-thaw cycles that crack rocks, and chemical processes like acid rain that dissolve minerals. Water flow, whether from rivers, rain, or ocean waves, can also wear down rock surfaces over time. Additionally, biological factors, such as plant roots growing into cracks or organisms burrowing into the rock, contribute to erosion by breaking down rock material.
Water: The force of flowing water can erode rock and soil, carrying away sediment and depositing it in new locations. Wind: Wind can pick up and transport particles, resulting in abrasion and erosion of surfaces, as well as depositing sediments in new areas. Ice: Glaciers can erode rock and soil as they move, carrying and depositing material as they advance and retreat. Gravity: Gravity can cause mass wasting events such as landslides and rockfalls, leading to erosion and deposition of material downslope. Waves: Ocean waves can erode coastlines by wearing away rock and sediment, as well as depositing sand and other materials along the shore.
Electromagnetic waves found in sunlight are light waves, ultraviolet waves and cosmic waves.

1. They force water into cracks in the rock. That helps to break it up. It's called hydraulic action. 2. They dissolve soluble material from the rock. This is called solution. 3. They fling sand and pebbles against the rock. These wear it away like sandpaper. This is called abrasion.

because the base of them erode in 3 diffrent ways ur gay because the base of them erode in 3 diffrent ways ur gay i have a hench willy no jokes

Running water can (1) erode rock into smaller rock fragments, (2) dissolve rock into minerals, both of which can be redeposited as sedimentary rock, and (3) carried to the ocean to be melted at subducting plates.

The 4 geological agents are: Waves, Rivers, Wind and Glaciers. They all do the same 3 jobs, they erode, transport and deposit or they pick up, move and place.
Sorry i firgued it out its 1. It can carry particles of sediment from place to place. 2. It can also cause weathering. 3. Exposed rock can slowly erode.
Reflection: Waves bounce off the surface of an object. Refraction: Waves change direction as they pass through different mediums. Absorption: Waves transfer energy to the matter they interact with, causing it to heat up.
The word Precambrian describes the approximate age of the rock, it could be sedimentary, igneous or metamorphic and there are many ways in which these 3 types of rock could form.
its a hard to explain but ill do what i can... so... how quickly the cliff erodes depends on 3 things the type of rock its made of, how long its fetch is and the steepness of the cliff. The type of rock has a huge impact on the speed of the cliff getting eroded because if its made of resistant rock then there are less joints therefor its strong but non-resistant rock is not able to defend itself from hydrolic action, abrosion, attrition and solution...the four types of erosion.
