A rock rolling down a hill? The rock can collect materials from the hill and add some materials onto the hill at the same time. If it hits another rock and 'jumps' into the air, it can be broken when it lands.
A good example would be plant roots exploring and expanding in a rock fracture. The roots will grow causing the fracture to grow and physically open them up further. Eventually breaking the rock into multiple smaller pieces.

An example of biological weathering is when roots embed in a rock and expand eventually breaking it apart.
Exfoliaton, abrasion and ice wedging.
Mechanical weathering for example freeze-thew process or abrasion.

Rhyolite.

One example of chemical weathering is acid rain another is acid fog. An example of mechanical weathering is water eroding away mountains or water creating a river. by.....
Abrasion is Mechanical Weathering.
Mechanical Weathering is when a rock, for example, is broken down by man, animals ect.
