There are many types of rock flows that could answer this question, but the main two are debris flows and turbidity currents.

A debris flow is a mass of loose rock and water which flows at equal velocity throughout its depth, called laminar flow.

A turbidity current is a mass of loose rock and water which flows at varying velocities throughout its depth, called turbulent flow.

How do you distinguish a homogeneous mixture from a heterogeneous one?

Something is homogeneous if it is the same from one location to the next and heterogeneous of the properties change with position in the substance. A homogeneous mixture is any mixture that shows no separation of components. It is uniform in chemical composition with no physical separation of components. For example, water and sugar will mix with each other. We say sugar dissolves in water. Heterogeneous mixtures are mixtures that result from combining things which do not entirely mix. Oil and water do not mix completely and even if the mixture is agitated strongly, the two components will separate. With oil and water, the separation is rapid and obvious. For many other materials, such as emulsions, the separation is not always rapid and not even necessarily visible. Latex paint is an example.

Why the asteroid catches fire when it entered into earth from space?

It is no really fire; it is plasma. When an asteroid enters Earth's atmosphere it is moving extremely fast. This rapid movement superheats the air around and in front of it, turning it into glowing plasma.


Can you give a purpose for a baking soda volcano?

Baking soda volcanoes are normally used to demonstrate how the pressure increase that occurs in a volcano's magma chamber can cause a volcanic eruption to occur. This is because the mixture of baking soda and vinegar causes carbon dioxide gas to be produced which causes a pressure increase in the model volcano as well as causing the mixture to foam. The rapid increase in volume and pressure forces the mixture out of the top of the model volcano which is a useful analogy for the process that occurs in a real volcano.
