There are a number of contributing factors. The major one is rain. Rain loosens a rock's grip on the rest of the rock. If there is a major amount of rain over a short period of time, major erosion problems are possible. Another is just the weather. If the rock is in a climate sensitive environment, the years of hot to cold to hot to cold just wear the rock down.
It cause it because Phisical and chemical weathering
It is a cause of both.
It is classified as physical or mechanical weathering.
by helping each other by breaking down the minerals
It would be easier to say how they are different. Both physical and chemical weathering can cause pitting, erosion of material and degradation of optical properties, making glass surfaces less reflective or transmissive.
No. Erosion usually involves the transportation of material from one place to another place. Chemical weathering involves the reaction of natural Earth materials with acidic fluids, causing dissolution.
It is a cause of both.
When the weather damages things such as acid rain, it is weathering. Acid Rain is chemical weathering because it is rain with the chemical acid in it and it can damage things like buildings, rocks and other objects. Other types of weathering are Physical Biological

No, desert pavement is caused by wind which is physical weathering.

Chemical weathering and physical weathering are two types of weathering involved in the phosphorus cycle. In chemical weathering, a chemical reaction causes phosphate rocks to break down and release phosphate into soil. Acid precipitation and the chemicals released by lichen can cause the chemical weathering. In physical weathering, processes like wind, rain, and freezing releases particles of rock and phosphate into the soil.

chemical: where the slight acidity of the rain cause a slow erosion. physical: where rain erodes the object quicker than chemical.

No, they don't. Rocks don't cause weathering at all. They are the things which get weathered.
The most common cause of chemical weathering is oxygen
