Climate plays an essential role in the process of weathering. The two important climatic factors i.e temperature and rainfall affects the weathering process extensively by increasing the rate of weathering.
For instance high temperature causes break down of large rock masses by inducing cracks in the rock deposits. While heavy rainfall causes chemical weathering of rocks as it forms acid solutions that leads to pealing up of rocks.
The second law of thermodynamics is a statement of the law of conservation of energy say that heat cannot be completely converted into mechanical energy
