Answer: Physical/Mechanical Weathering

Explanation:

Weathering is the process that breaks down rocks into smaller particles like sediment and soil. Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering. In this case, extreme heat during the day may have caused the rock to expand, only to shrink from the cold of the night. Over time, this weakened the structure of the rock, causing it to split and crumble, with outer layers flaking off in the process known as exfoliation.

Atmospheric Temperature​
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Normal, or ambient temperature is 70 °F (21° C).

Explanation:

Normal, or ambient temperature is 70 °F (21° C). Standard temperature is defined as zero degrees Celsius (0 0C), which translates to 32 degrees Fahrenheit (32 0F) or 273.15 degrees kelvin (273.15 0K). This is essentially the freezing point of pure water at sea level, in air at standard pressure.

Determine whether each statement describes relative age or absolute age.
andrew-mc [135]
Sam bought a new car seven years ago today - absolute age
Sarah s company was formed a few years after James’s company - relative age
Luke’s school was built in December, 100 years ago. - relative age
Alice’s school is older than Luke’s school - relative age
Louisa owned a car long before Sam - relative age
James’ company has been in existence since 1991 - absolute age

relative age - the age of an event is determined in relation with another event (or another person)

Absolute age - the age of an event is a fixed moment in time, which can be traced back with precision and does not depend on another event, person or age
