What are the differences between sleet and rain?
Freezing rain is possible on Sunday as a dynamic winter storm enters the state's atmosphere. Snow and rain are widely understood forms of precipitation, but often times freezing rain and sleet have people confused as to what they are and what makes them different. Between the two, freezing rain is considered as the more dangerous because it often immediately leads to very slippery roadways. It can also begin to build up as ice on power lines and tree limbs. During periods of heavy icing, freezing rain is often blamed for power outages. Sleet can also yield slick roadways, but often accumulates much in the way snow does. Interestingly, the term sleet is used almost exclusively in the United States. More often in the rest of the world sleet is referred to as what it actually is: ice pellets. Freezing rain falls in the atmosphere as a liquid. It freezes only when it comes in contact with surfaces that are at or below freezing. When freezing rain occurs, an ice glaze can develop easily on any surface it touches. In many cases, that would be roads and sidewalks and is one reason why bridges and overpasses can become so dangerous when freezing rain threatens. Sleet falls in the atmosphere as a solid pellet of ice. That is why it is commonly referred to as ice pellets. The precipitation is in a totally frozen solid state as it travels through the air, and when it hits the ground. Though it may melt after hitting the Earth's surface and re-freeze, that would be after the fact, and what separates it from freezing rain.
The two processes which are most often responsible for the breakdown of rock into soil particles are?
Water erosion, Freezing.
What changes do rocks undergo near the Earth's surface?
Rocks at or near the surface are subjected to mechanical and chemical weathering which results in oxidation and hydration of their minerals and breaking into smaller pieces. Rock fragments and mechanically-weak weathered rocks may then be subject to erosion, i.e. to being carried away.
What is rain that falls to the ground with a temperature at below freezing?
Ice results when rain lands on surfaces that are at or below freezing temperatures. A dangerous condition known as Black Ice occurs when this occurs on roadways, and leads to accidents and deaths.
Alternate freezing and thawing often leads to what?
Alternate freezing and thawing often leads to creep.
What are some of the natural processes that can break solid rock?
Water and Freezing, Ice and Thawing, repetitively over time contribute the most to breaking solid rock. Force often assists the process.
Can tabbouleh be frozen?
Tabbouleh CAN be frozen, however, the fresh herbs as well as the Bulgar Wheat can be effected by the process. It can have an effect on the texture, as well as the flavor.
