What does water do to a rock?

Answer 1

water affects rocks when water rubs against rock for a long long time the rock starts to weather away so it breaks inti small particles. Also if water comes in contact with the rocks, it would have to go around the rock therefore it slows the flow of the water down. If the rocks had holes in the middle it wouldn't really slow the water down but it only a little. That's because the water still kind of has to go over the base of the rock. Also if rocks were naturally piled up with no gaps and they're too high for the water to go over, then the water would have to stop and flow to the side not forward so that it could get back on track.

Answer 2

Over time, water can break down a rock through a process called weathering. Water can seep into small cracks in the rock, freeze, and expand, causing the rock to eventually break apart. Additionally, water can chemically react with minerals in the rock, causing it to weaken and erode.

Answer 3

There are a number of ways that rain can have an affect on rocks. Usually rain will erode rock surfaces.

Answer 4

By hitting it many times like if you punched a wall many times it would leave a mark and it would be the same concept.

Answer 5

Water can chemically weather rocks by dissolving minerals, water can also physically weather rocks by fracturing them by hydraulic pressure or frost wedging.

Answer 6

when the water freezes it makes the rock crack

Answer 7

it slows /stops the flow

Answer 8

the wethering makes it sediments.

Answer 9

Thats why I'm here

Answer 10

it will make rocks eroude and break up and damaged
