How is weathering affecting the Statue of Liberty?
Weathering has affected the Statue of Liberty because the statue was once a coper color. Acid rain soon caused it to become a green color. Wind, water, snow, and the sun (forms of weathering) also caused the statue's natural color to wash away.

Examples of manual-mechanical data processing?
Yes or no, depending on what the task is. As an example, if you are inputting data into a computer via keyboard, magnetic tape, hard disk file transfer, or keypunch card, the task is completely mechanical.On the other hand, if you are performing a data processing task related to reading a printed report and manually compiling data, it is not at all mechanical.
What are 2 examples for mechanical weathering?
Abrasion and Frost
What are two examples of the mechanical weathering?
Two examples of mechanical weathering are frost wedging, where water freezes in cracks in rocks and expands, causing them to break apart, and root wedging, where plant roots grow into cracks and exert pressure, leading to rock fragmentation.
How do you use mechanical weathering in a sentence?

What are 2 examples of mechanical and chemical weathering?
Mechanical weathering examples include frost wedging, where water seeps into cracks in rocks and freezes, expanding and breaking the rock. Chemical weathering examples include acid rain, where pollutants in the atmosphere react with water to form acidic precipitation that can erode rock surfaces over time.
What are non-examples of mechanical weathering?
Mechanical weathering is physical changes that break down and/or cracks the rock, such as ice wedging, temperature changes, root growth, or animal activity. Chemical weathering is a chemical change that changes the chemicals of the substance to make a new one. Examples of chemical weathering include oxidation, acid rain, hydration, and carbonation.
What is called when rocks break down without changing in chemical composition?
