Answer:option A is correct; cold front.

Explanation:

A cold weather front is defined as the changeover region where a cold air mass is replacing a warmer air mass.

From the question which says that the weather forecast was; ''

Increasing cloudiness and warm today with the possibility of showers by this evening. Turning much colder tonight. Winds southwesterly becoming gusty and shifting to northwesterly by tonight.''

When the cold front is passing, winds become gusty; there is a sudden drop in temperature, and heavy rain, sometimes with hail, thunder, and lightning. Lifted warm air ahead of the front produces cumulus or cumulonimbus clouds and thunderstorms.

Briefly explain how physical weathering enhances the rate (speed) of chemical weathering?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Physical weathering enhances the rate of chemical weathering .

Explanation:

Physical weathering is the breaking down of rocks by various processes like freezing and thawing without altering the rocks chemical composition.

While, chemical weathering involves the disintegration and dissolution of rocks by the chemical processes like oxidation , carbonation and solution processes etc.

Generally a fractured rock can easily be weathered by chemical agents rather than a normal fractured rock.

So ,

when a rock is already subjected to physical weathering, the rock will develop cracks on it and when the chemical agents comes in contact with that rock, the chemical solution will penetrate into those cracks and will dissolve the rocks at a rapid rate.
