thermochemical Reactions
Earth's surface is primarily shaped by weathering, erosion, and tectonic activity. Weathering breaks down rocks, erosion transports the broken pieces, and tectonic activity, such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, can deform and reshape the land. Additionally, human activities like mining and construction also impact the Earth's surface.
Internal forces of change, like tectonic plate movement, can lead to large-scale changes on Earth's surface such as mountain formation, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions. In contrast, external forces of change, such as erosion by wind and water, shape the surface through processes like weathering and sediment transport. Both internal and external forces play complementary roles in shaping and transforming Earth's surface over time.
Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces to new locations. Over time, these processes can create features like valleys, canyons, and coastlines, shaping the Earth's surface.
The constant interaction between rocks and external forces like weathering, erosion, and tectonic activity can change the Earth's surface. However, the fundamental composition and structure of rocks themselves cannot be changed by external forces other than extreme conditions like high pressure and temperature in the Earth's interior.
Which of the following forces would take the longest amount of time to change the surface of the Earth
The two forces that change the surface of the Earth are weathering, which breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, and erosion, which transports these rock fragments to different locations.
Exogenous forces are forces that work above the earths surface and break down landforms. Endogenous forces are forces that work below the earths surface and build up land forms
because of the earths surface
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms

They both can change the size of Earths Surface
what involves both chemical and physical change on earths surface
Umm, I think the crust.
The answer is Weatering And Erosion.
Most common change to the Earths surface from internal forces would most likely be earthquakes and volcano eruptions. External forces could be considered meteor strikes, or possibly the effects of gravity on the oceans ( Tides ) Global warming is also melting glaciers and causing a growth in arid regions. kapm
