Its mass is constant because no mass is being added to or removed from it.

Its volume will decrease because it was compressed into a smaller size.

Density is mass divided by volume, so it's change will relate to the fraction:

mass (constant) / volume (decreasing)

... so since the volume (in the denominator) is decreasing, the fraction overall is increasing, so density will increase.

When sediments are squeezed together due to pressure what is that called?

When sediments are squeezed together due to pressure, it forms sedimentary rock through the process of lithification. This involves compaction and cementation of the sediments under pressure, which ultimately leads to the formation of solid rock.


What is the nature and kind of force when wet clothes are twisted and squeezed?

The force exerted on wet clothes when twisted and squeezed is a combination of tension and compression forces. When twisting, tension forces are exerted along the fibers of the fabric, while squeezing creates compression forces perpendicular to the surface being squeezed. Together, these forces help wring out excess water from the fabric.
