What else can I help you with?
When rock layers break the resulting surface they break and slide on is a?
A Fault
What is the term for molten rock material that reaches earth's surface?
Molten rock that is contained below the earth's surface is known as magma. Once it break the surface of the earth, as in a volcanic eruption, it is called lava.
Once the elastic limit of rock is passed they break and move along surface called?
faults
The difference between cleavage and fracture?
Cleavage is when you can break the rock into square like pieces and Fracture is when you break a rock into uneven different shaped pieces.
What isigneous rock at the earth's surface that is weathered and wears away?
Igneous rock at the Earth's surface that is weathered and wears away is called sediment. Sediment is made up of small pieces of rock that break off and erode from the original igneous rock due to weathering processes like wind, water, and temperature changes.
What is is the surface of a break in a section of rocks?
A Fault
When rock layers break the resulting surface they break and slide on is a?
A Fault
What is a break in the layers of rock which causes a section of it to become dislocated?
It is an earthquake.
When rock layers break and resulting surface they break and slide on?
faults occur when this happens
When rocks crack in the section parallel to the surface of the rock it is called?
Exfoliation
What is clevege?
cleavage is the tendancy of a rock to break on an flat surface.
What is the term for molten rock material that reaches earth's surface?
Molten rock that is contained below the earth's surface is known as magma. Once it break the surface of the earth, as in a volcanic eruption, it is called lava.
What is surface of a break in a section of rocks?
This could be a beading plane, a plane of cleavage or schistosity, or a fault plane.
Which section break begins a new section on the same page?
A continuous section break begins a new section on the same page.
How do the amount of a rock's surface area affect its rate of weathering?
A rock with a larger surface area will weather more rapidly than a rock with a smaller surface area. This is because weathering occurs at the surface of the rock, so more surface area means more exposure to weathering agents like water and air. As a result, rocks with more surface area will break down and deteriorate faster.
Once the elastic limit of rock is passed they break and move along surface called?
faults
The difference between cleavage and fracture?
Cleavage is when you can break the rock into square like pieces and Fracture is when you break a rock into uneven different shaped pieces.
