What Sediments can be picked by?
Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
How is erosion part of the formation of sedimentary rock?
Sedimentary rocks are, by definition, rocks that are composed of layers of sediments. Sediments are particles of rock and other materials. So if you have a rock that's being weathered and eroded, it's getting broken down and carried by water and wind. Eventually the rock will be broken down so much that what's left will be sediments. These sediments will pile on top of each other, compacting under the pressure from higher layers and creating a sedimentary rock.
What sediments float in water?
What sediment float in the water
When water loses this the water deposits its sediments?
Energy of motion
In what ways are sediments transported?
By water or wind
The water soaks into the flour but the level of flour does not rise why not?
The water is compacting the flour.
What is the role of water in coal formation?
The weight of water presses down on plant remains, compacting them.
What Sediments can be picked by?
Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
When sediments are slowly changed to rock what forces the sediments together?
Pressure of water and other sediments.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of compacting concrete using a vibrator?
The main disadvantage of compacting concrete using a cement vibrator is the noise. The advantages of compacting concrete using a cement vibrator is to remove trapped air and excess water which then allows the concrete settle firmly.
Sediments can be picked up by what?
Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
Why water is colourless?
Water is colorless because there are no sediments to give the water color. Sea water has color because there are alot of sediments
Sediments left behind by moving wind or water?
sediments left behind by moving water or wind
Why are sediments deposited?
Sediments are deposited when the water flow begins to decrease. When this happens, the water can no longer move the sediment around, therefore, sediments will fall to the bottom.
What is consodilation?
It's d process of compacting a material by removing d water contant:)
When do steams erode sediments?
Streams constantly erode sediments. Anytime the water is moving, sediments are being eroded
How can you remove floating sediments from water?
Pour the water over a meshy-type material and it will catch most of the sediments.
