An unconformity is created when there is a gap in the rock record due to erosion or non-deposition of sediment. When sedimentation stops and then restarts, there is a period of time where the underlying rock is exposed to erosion, creating a gap in the sequence of rock layers. This gap represents missing geological time in the rock record.

How would you change sedimentary rock into sediment?

You would bring it to the surface where the exposed sedimentary rock would be subject to weathering and erosion and the debris from these processes will be sediment once deposited again.
