What effect does weathering have on igneous rock?
The effect of weathering is to reduce the volume of the igneous rock.
Is the geothermal gradient associated with divergent plate boundaries greater than the gradient associated with subduction zones?
Yes. Due to the thinness of the lithosphere at the divergent plate boundary, and the upwelling of hot mantle 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
What are two factors about the particles in a rock have the greatest effect on the porosity of the rock?
Porosity refers to the measure of how much of a rock is open space. The two factors concerning particles in a rock that have the greatest effect on the rock's porosity are shape and distribution.
What is a deformation and what causes it?
Deformation is a change in the shape and volume of a rock, deformation is produced when a rock experiences a stress that is greater than the strength of the rock.
How does pressure affect rock structures?
Pressure can effect formation, strength, tightness of packing of rocks and mineral and total geological make-up.
What factor determine the strength of a rock?
The factors that influence the strength of a rock and how it will deform include temperature, confining pressure, rock type, and time.
On Pokemon sapphire where do you get the HM strength?
you can get strength HM from using rock smash on the rock that seperates the couple in the village across from marvile which you get rock smash from.
What is the name of the biggest rock?
God as he is my rock, my fortress and my strength.
Is the in-situ strength of rock higher than the strength determined under laboratory conditions?
The strength of a rock in-situ is almost always less (and sometimes very significantly less) than the strength when measured in a laboratory.
How do you use strength on the rock in the dreamyard on pokemon black?
You need to teach strangth to at least one of your pokemon. The pokemon that knows strength must be in your party if you need to use strength. Click on the rock and answer yes when it asks if you would like to move the rock. Then just walk into the rock and it will move
What force pushes groundwater from pore to pore below the water table?
Pressure gradient or hydraulic gradient is the force that pushes groundwater from pore to pore below the water table. A boundary between saturated rock below and unsaturated rock above is the water table.
What effect does weathering have on igneous rock?
The effect of weathering is to reduce the volume of the igneous rock.
What are the effect of rock properties in drilling operation?
Rock properties such as strength, hardness and brittleness must be assessed so that the correct drilling procedures are implemented.Ê Such as choosing the correct drill bits for the specific type of rock thats being drilled, to ascertain the most effective way to drill.
Where do you get the HMS Strength and Rock Climb?
D/P: HM04 Strength: Lost Tower HM08 Rock Climb: Route 217 in snow Pt: HM04 Strength: Iron Island from Riley HM08 Rock Climb: Route 217 in snow HG/SS: HM04 Strength: Route 42 from Hiker HM08 Rock Climb: Pallet Town from Prof. Oak
Is the geothermal gradient associated with divergent plate boundaries greater than the gradient associated with subduction zones?
Yes. Due to the thinness of the lithosphere at the divergent plate boundary, and the upwelling of hot mantle rock.
The lithosphere is defined as a?
rigid outer layer of the Earth, ranging from 10 to 70km deep in oceanic areas and 100-150 over the continents. With temperatures below 1300° C, heat transfer occurs via conduction and advection (heat and matter flow). Composed of crust and mantle peridotites eliciting elastic properties while no melted rocks are present except possible at the base. The strength of the lithosphere is a function of composition, crustal thickness and geothermal gradient. As pressure increases, rock strength increases and as temperature increases rock strength decreases.
