What is the rock cycle?




What is the Rock cycle?

 Answer: Magma from there underneath atmosphere Can erupt through a weak part of the earth crust. Gradually they cool down to from the igneous rock. The igneous rock eroded 1 by different agents like-river wind glacier, and carried by these agents to the sea, these eroded material deposit layer by layer in the sea and form sedimentary rocks. When igneous and sedimentary rocks, come under huge temperature and pressure, Chemical reaction, they transform into Metamorphic rock when the earth movement occurs, these rocks. are brought inside the earth. Due to heat there melt. to form magma Magma again. to From, the igneous rock again. come outside thus starting From the igneous rock again back to it is called rock cycle

What is geothermal energy? by research studys

  What is geothermal energy? Answer: It is a type of energy.The temperature of the earth's core waves outward. This thermal power is known as geothermal energy. Many countries of the world produce electricity from this thermal power. Iceland meets upto 30% of the total energy requirement from geothermal energy. The U.S.A produces highest amount of electricity in the world from geothermal energy. Electricity production from geothermal energy reduces the use of fossil fuel (coal, petroleum).

What is density and density of the earth.

 What is density ? Density of a matter is its mass per unit volume. It is measured by the measure of its mass contained in one cubic centimetre of its volume. Density of a matter gives us an idea of how close, or how far apart, its molecules are. An iron plate feels heavier than an aluminum plate of the same volume, simply because iron is denser than aluminum.

A few words on three sedimentary rock: limestone, sandstone,shale by research studys

What is limestone ? Limestone : It is a calcareous sedimentary rock. Limestone or Calcium Carbonate is generally not soluble in water. But it gets readily dissolved in rainwater or acid solutions when it is transformed to Calcium Bicarbonate, which is not resistant to erosion and highly permeable. Surface water sinks underground through holes on the surface of the earth carved by solution actions of rainwater in Limestone regions. Limestone may be white, grey, green or blackish in colour. It is used as a raw material in making cement and in the iron and steel industry.  What is sandstone? Sandstone : It is a sedimentary rock rich in sand. It is resistant to erosion in spite of being highly porous and permeable. Architects use it in making epitaphs and monuments. It is yellow, orange, red, pink, white or grey in colour. Soil in regions dominated by Sandstone is saline and infertile. Many architectural wonders in India, like the Red Fort, the temples in Udaygiri-Khandagiri a...
