sedimentary rocks , rocks that rock.
Conglomerate rocks are coarse grained sedimentary rocks wherein large rounded sediments are found. These rounded sediments are referred to as gravel.
They fit together kind of like puzzle pieces, so there is less open spaces (pores).
Angular sediments are usually young or "immature" sediments which have only recently been weathered from a source rock. They have not been exposed to corrosive fources long enough to become worn down. These sort of sediments are common in glacial areas or areas high in a river catchment near their original location.Rounded grains suggest extended periods of transport and mechanical weathering, which chip away the sharper edges of the immature sediments leaving them worn dow. a common example of this is a desert sand, which has been exposed to errosive forces for a long time, being blown around the desert, giving them a rounded appearance.Think of a broken piece of glass. In its "immature form, it has sharp edges and smooth faces. If you throw it in the ocean on a beach, and give it time, the surf and sand will weather it smooth, leaving you with nice smoth beach glass, a mature sediment.

Sediments that are in outwash are sorted sediments, organized by size, while sediments that are in moraine are unsorted.

when particles collide with each other and with other object in their path it happens when sediments is transported from its source to where it is deposited. these collision can cause the particles to change size and shape. angular and uneven rocks are when particles that have moved long distances from the source tends to be more rounder and smoother. the farther sediments travel from its source the finer and smoother the particles of sediments become.
angular momentum and angular velocity
Detrital sedimentary rock. clastic sedimentary A+
The sedimentary rock breccia indicates short distance transport of sediments because the rock fragments that make it up are still angular and not rounded from abrasion.
Angular velocity is a vector with a direction and angular speed is a scalar with no direction.
angular momentum is the measure of angular motion in a body.
The three types of ocean floor sediments are Terrigenous, Biogenous, and Hydrogenous sediments.
Sediments that are in outwash are sorted sediments, organized by size, while sediments that are in moraine are unsorted.
No, uniform angular velocity means no angular acceleration.
