Questions: 1. What are the 3 factors affecting weathering that were mentioned in this activity? 2. How does the sun, water and wind affect the process of weathering?
Sun -
Water -
Wind -
Paki Ayus po Yung SAGOT Or I Will Report You Thank you
1. weathering factors: rock strength/hardness, mineral and chemical composition, colour, rock texture, rock structure. (hindi ko po alam ang nabanggit na factors ng weathering dahil hindi niyo po nailagay ang binasa niyo na lesson or what pero baka nandyan sa nailagay kong factors ang sagot. sana nakatulong kahit papaano)
2. SUN: The energy that the Earth receives from the Sun is the basic cause of our changing weather. Solar heat warms the huge air masses that comprise large and small weather systems.
WATER: Water, in either liquid or solid form, is often a key agent of mechanical weathering. For instance, liquid water can seep into cracks and crevices in rock. If temperatures drop low enough, the water will freeze. When water freezes, it expands.
WIND: wind and similar forces are categorized under mechanical or physical weathering because they release their pressures on the rocks directly and indirectly which causes the rocks to fracture and disintegrate. Wind erosion is a process where soil, rocks, or minerals are worn away by the wind.
