Answer:

Explanation:

Mechanical weathering increases the rate of chemical weathering.

As rock breaks into smaller pieces, the surface area of the pieces increases. With more surfaces exposed, there are more surfaces on which chemical weathering can occur.

Chemical weathering is different from mechanical weathering(physical weathering )  because the rock changes, not just in size of pieces, but in composition.

That is, one type of mineral changes into a different mineral.

Chemical weathering works through chemical reactions that cause changes in the minerals.

This is because as the temperature of an object increases, the particles gain more energy and therefore move faster, increasing kinetic energy.

What would happen if you flew into jupiter?
aleksley [76]
A major problem in sending space probes to Jupiter is that the planet has no solid surface on which to land, as there is a smooth transition between the planet's atmosphere and its fluid interior. Any probes descending into the atmosphere are eventually crushed by the immense pressures within Jupiter
