mechanical weathering
Mechanical weathering is the process of breaking big rocks into little ones. This process usually happens near the surface of the planet. Temperature also affects the land. The cool nights and hot days always cause things to expand and contract. That movement can cause rocks to crack and break apart.Mechanical weathering involves mechanical processes that break up a rock: for example, ice freezing and expanding in cracks in the rock.
H20 and 02 is the correct answer.
Solar eclipses occur more often than lunar eclipses because in a lunar eclipse, the moon has to be perfectly aligned with both the earth and the sun.
Solar eclipses occur about 2 to 4 times per year, but the area
on the ground covered by totality is only about 50 miles wide. In any
given location on Earth, a total eclipse happens only once every hundred
years or so, though for selected locations they can occur as little as a
few years apart.
Eclipses of the Moon by the Earth's shadow occur less often than solar eclipses, however, each lunar eclipse is visible
from over half the Earth. At any given location, you can have up to
three lunar eclipses per year, but some years there may be none.
In any
one calendar year, the maximum number of eclipses is four solar and
three lunar.
