How does a wave erode a sea cliff?
Actually it takes a long series of waves to erode a cliff. A wave erodes a cliff because every time it washes away, it take little bits and pieces of rock minerals. Soon, all the surface minerals are washed away, and the process begins again, which will result in erosion of the cliff. The cliff will either take on a new shape or erode away completely. It depends on how much erosion the cliff has experienced. The longer the erosion process has occured the more the cliff will vanish. Hope this helped!

If waves erode the soft rock along the base of a steep coast the result may eventually be a landform called a?
Wave-cut cliff
Is a wave cut cliff a result of erosion or deposition?
A wave-cut cliff is a result of erosion. The constant action of waves hitting against the base of the cliff causes it to erode and retreat inland over time, forming a steep cliff face.
How do waves create a cave?
Waves keep hitting the side of a cliff and eventually erode enough rock to form a cave
How long did niagara falls take to form?
18 000 years to form because water had to erode it away
What is produced when waves erode through a cliff?
When waves erode through a cliff, they produce sediments such as sand, gravel, and rocks. These sediments can be carried away by the waves, deposited on beaches, or transported to new locations by currents. Over time, the continuous erosion can lead to the formation of sea caves, arches, and stacks along the coast.
