How do rocks undergo physical change?
rocks can undergo changes in a lot of different ways either by water eroding at it wind crashing against it or something like sand blowing up against it something like that and over time the rocks will start to change because of all of the phisicall force that it is undergoing the more abbrasion and how hard and fast that it going will determine how soon the rocks will show some sort of physical change but this usually takes a very long time!
Are sedimentary rocks similar to metamorphic rocks?
Sedimentary rocks are ones formed by solidified mud and loose earth. Metamorphic rocks are ones formed by some sort of change, such as melting and re-cooling. So they are similar in some senses (they are both rocks, both of the earth) but in others they are very different (physical properties).
What sort of information are usually shown on a geologic map?
Where rocks outcrop or would outcrop if they could be seen.
Geologists use a to investigate rocks and minerals?
complicated sort of tools like nails and hammers and saws and things of which i dont no of
Are pebbles classified as a sedimentary rocks?
No, pebbles are small, rounded fragments of rock that can be found within sedimentary rocks, but they are not considered sedimentary rocks themselves. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and solidification of sediments over time.
Its wind and rain cause the smoothing and rounding of rocks?
Yes, and flowing water, like rivers. Mostly rivers, though, as wind is rather weak unless blowing hard and carrying some sort of abrasive.
How do you sort rocks?
You sort them by rocks, minerals, and fossils.

What do you call bits of rocks and other matter?
Those are called sediments. It is any sort of loose rocks and mineral fragments that are deposited in layers. They can either be transported by water, wind, ice, or gravity.
What are the markings in sedimentary rocks that record the wave and motion of wind or water called?
"Ripple marks" (but you could also say cross bedding and dune bedding sort of do this too).
What sort of an instrument is a flute?
A wind instrument.
What is a wind mass?
hello peps! wind mass is some sort of a wind that spins around!! this is also something to do with history as well
Who is the greek god of noth wind?
The North Wind was an independent spirit that was born by a god or goddess of some sort.
Can basalt be weathered by wind?
If by weathered you mean eroded, no. No rock is eroded by wind alone. The particles of sand and grit that are borne by the wind is another matter, and it is this that actually erodes or weathers the rock. So, in short, no. Wind does not weather basalt nor any other sort of rock other than perhaps sedimentary varieties where it picks up grains and particles by which other rocks are eroded.

What sort of minerals are in rocks?
silicon. other random materials could be there too
How do meteors hit earth?
There's nothing special about it; they are just falling rocks. Of course, they are rocks that fall FROM SPACE, and the Earth is just sort of "in the way" as the rocks are falling around the Sun.
