I do not know exactly but if I were to guess, it would take about 10 days because if you turn the order around into sedimentary-> igneous it takes 10 days there too if it is in a river, or near one.

How can a igneous and metamorphic rock turn into sediments?
Igneous and metamorphic rock can be turned into sediments through weathering and erosion. For example: wind, water, and gravity.
Rocks that form when layers of rock particles are squeezed or stuck together?
I beileve the awnser would be Sedimentary Rocks because you know that if Igneous rocks are weathering, they turn into sediments. And if the sediments are squeezed or stuck together it would make a sedimentary rock. And the rock particles are sediments.
How is sediment created?
Sediments are deposited on to other sediments and immense heat and pressure turn the sediments into a rock
How does erosion effect the rock cycle?
erosion can effect the rock cycle by turning igneouse and metamorphic rocks into sediments and eventualy turn into a sedimentary rock such as sandstone
The type of rock deposited in a geosyncline is?
I am not sure.....is it sedimentary rock the answer??
How does a newly formed rock turn in to sediment?
Over a long period of time, the rock erodes into sediments. These sediments, along with pressure and water, form sedimentary rocks.
How do exsting rock turn into sediments?
the rock will turn to sediment after imeanse pressure.
What would happen to a metamorphic rock that was wheathered and broken down into sediments?
The sediments made of the metamorphic rock would turn into sedimentary rock.
When many years go by sediments turn into what?
Rock
How do sediments turn into rock?
Through time and compression.
What can happen to a rock once its form?
it can turn into molten rock it can be heated and pressured and turn into metamorphic it can weather and turn to sediments
What happens when rocks weathered?
When sedimentary rocks are weathered and eroded, they turn into sediments. And after compaction and cementation of the sediments, it will turn back into sedimentary rock.

What can happen to a sedimentary rock once it's formed?
it can turn into molten rock it can be heated and pressured and turn into metamorphic it can weather and turn to sediments
How can an igneous rock change into a sedimentary rock over millions of years?
When an igneous rock is eroded by rain, wind, etc. the small grains and dust are swept into streams and rivers. Eventually they are deposited in lakes, seas or oceans. After a long time these sediments build up and are covered by later sediments. Due to compaction from overlying sediments they gradually turn into a rock, a sedimentary rock.
How does rock fragments turn into rock?
Rock fragments are called sediments and by a process called lithification they turn into sedimentary rocks. Lithification is made up by compaction and cementation which is by pressure and a natural glue that is formed from groundwater the sediments stick together and then harden into rock.
