What are the types of rock deformation?
elastic deformation, ductile deformation and fracture
Which is not a form of rock deformation?
ductile deformation
What conditions make rock more ductile?
Ductile deformation is observed by folding of rock layers. Ductile deformation can take place by plastic flow of hot, weak rock.
What are the main types of geologic structures arising from brittle and ductile deformation?
Faults are formed by brittle deformations and folds are formed by ductile deformation.
What conditions do rocks exhibit ductile deformation?
In high pressures
What are the types of rock deformation?
elastic deformation, ductile deformation and fracture
Which is not a form of rock deformation?
ductile deformation
Which occurs at a lower stress value ductile deformation or elastic deformation?
Ductile deformation is when rock is given enough stress to break. If the stress is less, it will bend but not break.
What conditions make rock more ductile?
Ductile deformation is observed by folding of rock layers. Ductile deformation can take place by plastic flow of hot, weak rock.
What are the main types of geologic structures arising from brittle and ductile deformation?
Faults are formed by brittle deformations and folds are formed by ductile deformation.
What is a ductile metal?
A ductile metal is a metal that experiences noticeable deformation under tensile loading.
The type of deformation in which the object permanently changes size and shape without fracturing is called?
Ductile deformation
What is ductile fracture?
A ductile fracture is caused by plastic deformation that can be identified by cap and cone appearance of the fracture.
What conditions do rocks exhibit ductile deformation?
In high pressures
What happens to a material during ductile deformation?
It gets stretched out.
As heat and pressure increases ductile deformation?
becomes more likely
What structure form as a result of ductile deformation?
Geological structures form as a result of ductile deformation. These structures include glacier rock, slate, and other such features found as a result of rock wearing down.
