What else can I help you with?
What is called when rocks break down without changing in chemical composition?
Mechanical weathering.
What is another name for mechanical weathering?
One kind of Mechanical Weathering is called ice wedging.
Is abrasion chemical or mechanical weathering?
Abrasion is a type of mechanical weathering that occurs when rocks are physically broken down by the friction and impact of other rocks, sand, or sediment. This process does not involve any chemical reactions.
How does weathering change minerals?
Physical or mechanical weathering
Which would dissolved more quickly chemical or mechanical weathering?
Mechanical weathering typically occurs more quickly than chemical weathering. Mechanical weathering involves the physical breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces, while chemical weathering involves the alteration of rocks through chemical reactions. Factors such as temperature, precipitation, and rock composition can influence the rate of weathering.
What is the three mechanical weathering?
ice,water,and weathering
What are the three major categories of weathering?
-Mechanical weathering -Chemical weathering -Biological weathering
What are three causes of mechanical weathering?

What are the three agents for physical mechanical weathering?
The three agents for physical mechanical weathering are ice (frost action), wind (abrasion), and water (running water).
How the mechanical weathering is related to the weathering?
mechanical weathering applys weather
What is another name for physical weathering?
mechanical weathering
What are the 3 main types of weathering?
The three main types of weathering are mechanical weathering, chemical weathering, and biological weathering. Mechanical weathering involves physical processes like freezing and thawing, chemical weathering involves chemical reactions that break down rocks, and biological weathering involves living organisms breaking down rocks.
What Are two kind of weathering?
The 2 kinds of weathering are the Mechanical or Physical Weathering and the Mechanical Weathering.
Are the three types of weathering?
The three types of weathering are mechanical weathering, chemical weathering, and biological weathering. Mechanical weathering involves physical processes like freezing and thawing that break down rocks. Chemical weathering involves chemical processes like oxidation and dissolution that alter the composition of rocks. Biological weathering involves living organisms, such as plants or burrowing animals, that contribute to the breakdown of rocks.
Type of physical weathering?
Therew is only to types of weathering in my knowledge and they are Mechanical and Chemical (in scientific term). Mechanical is also know as physical.
What are the 3 factors that affect weathering?
The three factors that affect weathering are mechanical weathering (physical breakdown of rocks), chemical weathering (chemical changes in rocks), and biological weathering (weathering caused by living organisms).
What are the 3 agents of mechanical weathering?
What are three agents or causes of mechanical weathering?
