sedimentary rocks , rocks that rock.
Angular sediments have lower porosity compared to rounded sediments because angular grains have irregular shapes that leave less space between them. This results in a more compacted arrangement of grains, reducing the overall porosity of the sediment.
Breccia is a clastic sedimentary rock with large angular fragments cemented in a finer matrix.
Angular sediments are usually young or "immature" sediments which have only recently been weathered from a source rock. They have not been exposed to corrosive fources long enough to become worn down. These sort of sediments are common in glacial areas or areas high in a river catchment near their original location.Rounded grains suggest extended periods of transport and mechanical weathering, which chip away the sharper edges of the immature sediments leaving them worn dow. a common example of this is a desert sand, which has been exposed to errosive forces for a long time, being blown around the desert, giving them a rounded appearance.Think of a broken piece of glass. In its "immature form, it has sharp edges and smooth faces. If you throw it in the ocean on a beach, and give it time, the surf and sand will weather it smooth, leaving you with nice smoth beach glass, a mature sediment.

Conglomerate rocks are formed from rounded particles, while breccia rocks are formed from angular particles. This difference in particle shape is due to the transportation and deposition processes that these sediments undergo before forming rocks.

'Angular' , as in ' the angular corner'.
when particles collide with each other and with other object in their path it happens when sediments is transported from its source to where it is deposited. these collision can cause the particles to change size and shape. angular and uneven rocks are when particles that have moved long distances from the source tends to be more rounder and smoother. the farther sediments travel from its source the finer and smoother the particles of sediments become.
angular momentum is the measure of angular motion in a body.
To determine the angular acceleration when given the angular velocity, you can use the formula: angular acceleration change in angular velocity / change in time. This formula calculates how quickly the angular velocity is changing over a specific period of time.
Angular acceleration in a rotational motion system is calculated by dividing the change in angular velocity by the time taken for that change to occur. The formula for angular acceleration is: angular acceleration (final angular velocity - initial angular velocity) / time.
Angular impulse is defined as the rate-of-change of the angular acceleration.
The three types of ocean floor sediments are Terrigenous, Biogenous, and Hydrogenous sediments.
Angular momentum in a rotating system is calculated by multiplying the moment of inertia of the object by its angular velocity. The formula for angular momentum is L I, where L is the angular momentum, I is the moment of inertia, and is the angular velocity.
