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 would metamorphic rock change into a new metamorphic rock?
the
Can any type of rock change?
Yes, because sedimentary rocks can change into metamorphic and metamorphic can change into igneous rocks.
Is the change in shape of rock due to stress?
It is deformation
Basalt can change into what metamorphic rock?
Greenschist, blueschist, zeolite, granulite and eclogite high grade metamorphic rocks.
How could an igneous rock change to a metamorphic rock?
Under influence of pressure and temperature, a rock can change, the process is called deformation or metamorphism, the result is a metamorphic rock. This can happen to igneous rocks as well.
Why plastic deformation important in metal not in ceramics?
Plastic deformation in metal causes it to change shape, usually under stress such as a spinning turbine vane. Ceramics cannot deform, they are too hard and would shatter.
What happens during plastic deformation for the excipients of drugs?
When a large force is being applied to the particles, deformation becomes irreversible. The applied force will cause the particles to change shape leading to void spaces being filled. Examples of excipients which are known to undergo plastic deformation when a force is applied to them include microcrystalline celluose and LHPC.
A process by which rock deforms like a rubber band being stretched is called?
The force causing the change in the shape of rock is called stress. The change of shape in the rock is called strain. If the stress does not cause a permanent change in the shape of rock, it is called elastic deformation. If the change is permanent, it is called plastic deformation.
Difference between elastic and plastic deformation?
Elastic deformation returns to it's original shape after a strain is applied. Plastic deformation returns to a deformed shape after a strain is applied. The material's molecular bonds are strained to the point of fracture, making it not possible to return to the same state. Elastic deformation will return to its original shape. Plastic deformation is when you alter the original form. To understand more on this subject you might investigate failure analysis literature. Lots of good stuff there ratchet marks, beach marks, reverse bending etc... I believe the U.S. metallurgical society has the best reference material on this subject. A temporary shape change that is self-reversing after the force is removed, so that the object returns to its original shape, is called elastic deformation. In other words, elastic deformation is a change in shape of a material at low stress that is recoverable after the stress is removed. Examples would be the loading of a bridge or building support beam where the loads remain within the original design parameters, or the use of a safety pin where when it is opened it returns to it's unloaded shape. When the stress is sufficient to permanently deform the metal, it is called plastic deformation. Examples would be the building support beams for the twin towers, where the heat generated by the fires decreased the strength of the steel and allowed it to deform plastically, or the loads that are applied to a section of electrical conduit or mechanical piping in order to bend them into a specific shape. in elastic def. , the material returns to its original shape once force is removed. in plastic, the deformation is permanent and the material doesn't return to its original shape the elastic deformation happens in yield point and elastic deformation back to original size but plastic deformation will not back tto original size.
What is the process in which rocks change shape is called deformation deposition composition or flotation?
deformation
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.
What is rock that is changed by heat pressure or chemical change?
Metamorphic rocks have been changed by heat or pressure. This can be a change in size, shape, or arrangement of minerals.
What is one thing that change a rock to a metamorphic rock?
Heat and pressure change rocks to metamorphic!
How would metamorphic rock change into a new metamorphic rock?
the
Can any type of rock change?
Yes, because sedimentary rocks can change into metamorphic and metamorphic can change into igneous rocks.
Is there a change of volume when deformation is applied to a ball?
yes
