Rocks which are eroded break apart, form gravel or finer particles. Weather related erosion can be caused by rainfall, frost, wind driven sand erosion and ice forming in fisures expanding and cracking rocks.
ocuur an earthquake caused by a sunnamy for that reason the world is going to change.but earth science is the answer tarru.

∙ 14y agoWhen sedimentary rocks are weathered and eroded, they turn into sediments.
And after compaction and cementation of the sediments, it will turn back into sedimentary rock.

∙ 12y agowhat happens is that it the wind or the water carries the pieces of rock some where adding more layers to a forming rock forming a sedimentary rock

How air causes weathering of rocks?
High speed wind such as a tornado or cyclone can result in weathering of rocks. weathering of rocks make the huge rocks into stones and then into pebbles and then gradually into sand.
What process breaks rocks into small pieces to become soil?
the process in which rocks are broken down into soil is, :weathering.
What does weathering mean in the rock cycle?
Rocks may be broken physically into smaller pieces. They may also be broken as a result of change in chemical composition. The breaking down of rocks (either physically or chemically) at or near the earth's surface is called weathering. Rocks are weatherd in different ways such as: 1.Weathering of rocks by water 2. Weathering of rocks by the wind 3. Weathering of rocks by plants 4. Weathering of rocks by animals 5. Weathering of rocks by the people
What kinds of rocks are caused of weathering?
Metamorphic rocks change into sediments through weathering
Does chemical weathering cause a break down in the color and size of rocks?
Chemical weathering breaks down rocks
How air causes weathering of rocks?
High speed wind such as a tornado or cyclone can result in weathering of rocks. weathering of rocks make the huge rocks into stones and then into pebbles and then gradually into sand.
Why does chemical weathering happens?
All weathering is slow because rocks are pretty solid.
How was soil formed from rocks?
Soil is usually formed from the rock as a result of weathering of the rocks.
What occurs as a result of a rocks exposure to a chemical?
chemical weathering
What happens to rocks above earths surface over the years?
Rocks get eaten away by weathering and erosion
Which type of weathering is the result of water expanding inside the cracks of rocks when it freezes?
It is simply called freeze-thaw weathering.
What will happen if there is no weathering of rocks?
it will stay the same unless something else happens to it
Does Onion Skin Weathering Happen To The Earth?
It happens mainly to granitic rocks.
What process breaks rocks into small pieces to become soil?
the process in which rocks are broken down into soil is, :weathering.
What is disintegration of rocks called?
Weathering is the breaking up of rock into ever smaller particles. Sand grains is an example of the result of weathering.

What happens to rocks and minerals during physical weathering?
During physical weathering the elements cause changes in rocks. Water freezes and expands to form linear cracks. This is known as frost wedging. Heat from a fire causes rocks to splinter, and ocean waves batter rocks on the shoreline. Wind carries sand and other small particles that etch patterns on soft rocks.
