Even brittle solids have some elasticity, this allows for some bending before fracture.
However rocks in the ground are complex substances and full of water, this changes their properties as compared to rocks at outcrop. Also you must understand that the forces that deform rocks are applied very slowly. Rock deformation and fracture is a very complex subject.
Rocks can bend under stress when subjected to high pressure and temperature, causing them to deform. If the stress is too great, the rock will eventually reach its breaking point and fracture. This bending and eventual breaking is a result of the rock trying to accommodate the stress being applied to it.
The process in which rocks first bend and then break is called deformation. Deformation occurs when rocks experience stress, which can be caused by tectonic forces, pressure, or temperature changes. Initially, rocks may bend or fold under this stress, but if the stress is too great, the rocks can eventually break or fracture.
It is called folding when rocks bend without breaking because of plate movement.
It is called folding when rocks bend without breaking because of plate movement.
Rocks permanently deform through either brittle deformation, which involves the rocks breaking or fracturing, or ductile deformation, where the rocks bend and flow without fracturing.
Magnetic force does not break down rocks in nature. Rocks are typically broken down by mechanical weathering (e.g. frost wedging, root growth) and chemical weathering (e.g. oxidation, dissolution).
Folds are geologic structures that are formed when rocks bend but do not break.

Initially, rocks may bend or fold under this stress, but if the stress is too great, the rocks can eventually break or fracture.
A fold is formed when rocks bend under stress but do not break, creating a curve or ripple in the rock layers. This can happen due to tectonic forces pushing or squeezing the rocks. Types of folds include anticlines and synclines.
Ice will break rather then bend
Why does my eraser bend and not break?
Bend to Break is a song by the band All Time Low from their 2005 album "The Party Scene."
A downward bend in rocks is called a syncline. It is a type of fold where the rocks bend downward in the center, forming a U-shape. Synclines are commonly found in regions where the Earth's crust has been subjected to tectonic forces.
erosion can break rocks apart, weathering can also break rocks apart
rocks in the breaks, bend the break cover back and knock the rocks out, if its not rock then its probly a messed up hub assymbley, id just recomend staying out of the mud
Yes , Rocks Can Break Your Back .
