∙ 13y agoIt means rock that was deposited in its current place after traveling via erosion. Ie a river sweeps through a canyon, slowly eroding away the sides. These bits of sides that erode off fall into the river and are carried a few miles away and then dropped off at a river bank, creating a deposit of sandstone rock, for example.

∙ 10y agoUsually it means the statement of a witness to something. "The bystander's deposition was read at the trial."
But it can also refer to the act of deposing or overthrowing the ruler of a place. "After the deposition of the Ukrainian President, the constitution can return to normal."

How can you remove floating sediments from water?
Pour the water over a meshy-type material and it will catch most of the sediments.
What compossition does limestone have?
lime sediments (calcite)
What happens to beta alpha and gamma radiation after they are emitted?
they are absorbed, depositing their energy in whatever absorbed them.
Manganese nodule is what kind of sediment?
Are Hydrogenous sediments
What process forms coal?
The process is the sedimentation and lithification of ancient plant remains through compaction and removal of water via overburden pressure. Start with a lush tropical swamp. Vegetation grows and dies, falling in the water but not decomposing. Millions of years of this occurs. Thickness of dead plant material grows and grows. Then, over millions of more years, this organic sediment is covered by a sea that comes and goes, depending on plate movement and crustal uplifting and rifting, depositing vast amounts of sand, mud, and clays over them. The pressure of the sediments above squeeze the water out of the organic sediment below, and in time these organic sediments become lithified (turned into rock).
What is deposition in weathering?
The dropping of the sediments or DEPOSITING the sediments
Is a beach made from the process of depositing sediments?
Yes and so is cliffs
Do beaches or cliffs form by depositing sediments?
Yes they do because of erosion and deposition
How is erosion different from deposition?
Erosion is the moving of sediments deposition is depositing the sediment in an area
What are facts about deposition?
it is the state of being depositing or precipitated
What landform wsa most likely made by the process of depositing sediments?
A delta is a landform that is most likely made by the process of depositing sediments. Deltas are formed at the mouth of a river where the river's sediments are deposited as the river slows down and enters a larger body of water, such as a lake or an ocean. The accumulation of sediments over time creates a triangular-shaped landform with various channels and distributaries.
What is a constructive force?
a constructive force is a natural event that helps the earth like, weathering. weathering helps the earth by depositing sediments into other spots
Why is surface water both a creator and a destroyer of sediments and sedimentary rocks?
Water chemically and mechanically weathers sedimentary rocks. It also weathers and erodes all rock types, transporting and depositing the sediments, a step in the formation of sedimentary rock.
When are sediments transported by a river deposited?
when rivers enter oceans or lakes, the water slows and sediment is deposited.
What does sedimentation mean in a kid's words?
I am a kid, and i am 8. i think it means something turning into sediments, or something forming into sediments.
Why might a river eroding and depositing sediments along its side start to cut into earth to form a canyon?
If there was a change in sea level due to land being uplifted then the river would have more potential energy to cut into the earth.
What does river deposit mean?
accumulated sediments on the bottom of the river
