Where does all the force come from to squeeze sediments together to form sedimentary rocks?

The main force is weight of overlying rocks , called overburden, which puts overburden pressure on sediments and make them compress and compacts

How can ingneous rock disturb sedimentary rock layers?
Molten Rock from with in earth can force its way up through the layers above it cooling and forming igneous rock.
What episode does the red rangers come together in wild force?
The episode in which all Red Rangers, up to and including the Wild Force Red Ranger come together is the episode that is titled "Forever Red."
How can rock change from sedimentary to a metamorphic rock to igneous rock?
A short answer is that igneous may undergo crystalline restructuring and change under significant heat and pressure (though not enough to completely liquefy it). These changes occur underground and eventually the rock may be considered metamorphic.Igneous rocks that are exposed may be weathered and small particles deposited at riverbeds or ocean bottoms. After a long enough time, in the right conditions, these fragments bond together (much like concrete) to form sedimentary rock.
What is Trinidad and tobago fire service motto?
The motto of Jamaica Constabulary Force is 'Serve, Protect and Reassure'.
What is different between a Strike Team and a Task Force is?
In general, a task force is a group of individuals from different agencies or departments that come together to devise a course of action. A strike team is a unit that implements a course of action.
Where does all the force come from that squeezes sediments together to form sedimentary rocks?
The force is created by the self weight of the overlying material.
What two processes play a role in forming sedimentary rocks?
The process of lithification changes rocks into sediments. This process is broken up into two parts: cementation and compaction. In cementation, the substance crystallizes, or fills in the spaces between loose particles of sediment. In compaction, the sediments are squeezed together by the weight of layers on top of them.
Why do wind and water deposit sediments?
When the energetic wind or water loses its energy, the force of gravity will dominate, causing deposition of the sedimentary particles.
Meaning to squeeze or force out?
extrudes ; to squeeze or force out
What is a force is responsible for a rivers capability to move sediments?
The force that is responsible for moving sediments in a river is the current.
What is the force that squeezes rocks together?
Stresses the squeeze rocks or anything else are compressive.
The name of the force you exert on a sponge when you squeeze it is called?
Applied Force
To squeeze the particles closer together?
Under the influence of external pressure the particles are forced together. Under the particles' own gravitational force the particles come together. Technically speaking there must be an external force to bring the particles of matter together. Another point to be noted is that when the particles moves so close to together that it crosses its critical mass a black hole is developed. But not always.
What type of force is it when you squeeze a soft ball?
A mechanical force that is compressive in nature.
Where does the slowly running river drop there sediments?
Heavier sediments are more easily pulled down by gravity in slower waters. But they also have the chance to clump together with other sediments and become heavy enough to be pulled down. In faster waters, it pulls the grains and material apart before it can settle and has a stronger force than the pull of gravity.
What is the exterior force that carries away sediments and rock fragments?
erosion
Simple machines in a flat iron?
Yes, there is a lever in the flat iron. The fulcrum is where the 2 types of the flat iron come together, and your input force is when you squeeze the 2 parts together to grab your hair.
