What else can I help you with?
What is the force that moves rocks and other material down hill?
Erosionthe removal of rock particles by wind, water, ice, or gravity
How does gravity differ from other agents of erosion?
gravity is pulling the rock materials down by its force but agents of erosion is changing of rocks
Are Volcanic rocks metal?
No. Volcanic rocks are made of the same materials that other rocks are.
How does water moves rocks?
The force of moving water alone can wear away particles of rock.
The rock cycle indicates that each type of rock can?
Undergo transformation into other types of rocks through processes such as melting, cooling, weathering, and compacting. This cycle involves the continuous creation, destruction, and reformation of rocks in the Earth's crust.
Can rocks provide materials to make other rocks?
Yes. It's the foundation of the rock cycle.
What sort of minerals are in rocks?
silicon. other random materials could be there too
In addition to plate tectonics what is the other main driving force of the rock cycle?
Water flow
Does weathering and erosion both break down into rocks and minerals?
Yes, actually it breaks down everything because water is the strongest force on earth... maybe even the universe and it can break anything down for two reasons the chemicals in it and the rubbing of it against other materials.
What other force increases the deeper you travel through earth?
Pressure increases as you travel deeper through the Earth due to the weight of the overlying rocks and materials pressing down from above. This increase in pressure is caused by the gravitational force acting on the layers of the Earth.
How does coral differ from most rocks?
Coral is an actual living organism, while rocks are made out of other organic or inorganic materials.
What is the name of the material deposited on the edge of a glaciar?
The material deposited on the edge of a glacier is called moraine. This debris consists of rocks, soil, and other materials that the glacier has picked up as it moves, forming ridges or mounds at the glacier's terminus.
