9.2 or, if you want to indicate that it is to the nearest hundredths, 9.20
6.50
76.5 is already rounded to the nearest tenth, which is more rounded than to the nearest hundredth. If you want to indicate that the number is accurate to the nearest hundredth, then write it as 76.50 otherwise leave it as it is.
479, rounded to the nearest thousandth is 479 although, if you wish to indicate that it is accurate to the nearest thousandth, you could write it as 479.000
The number is already rounded to the nearest million so you write it just as in the question. To indicate that it is accurate to the nearest 0.1 million, you could write it as 377.0 million.
Clasts become rounded through processes like transportation by water, wind, or ice, which wear down their edges and corners. Sorting occurs when clasts of similar size are deposited together as a result of energy differences during transportation – heavier clasts settle out first, while lighter clasts are carried further.
Sedimentary clasts and grains become rounded primarily through the process of abrasion, where they are repeatedly bumped and rubbed against each other by flowing water, wind, or ice. This abrasion wears down the sharp edges and corners of the clasts, leading to a smoother and more rounded shape over time.
The size, shape, and weight of clasts determine the ability of a carrier to move them. Smaller, rounded clasts are typically easier to transport than larger, angular ones. Additionally, factors like water velocity, wind strength, or glacier movement can influence the transport of clasts.
Conglomerate is a coarse-grained sedimentary rock that contains large, rounded sediments called clasts. These clasts are typically pebbles, cobbles, or even boulders that are cemented together by finer sediment particles.
Conglomerates are dominantly composed of rounded gravel and breccias are composed of dominantly angular gravel.
Clasts. An accumulation of fallen clasts at the bottom of a rock face is "scree". An accumulation of clasts generally, up to about cobble size anyway, is a "sediment".
Rocks that have layers or clasts are typically formed through deposition and compaction of sediments. Sedimentary rocks like sandstone or shale are created when layers of sediment are compressed over time, while conglomerate rocks with visible clasts are formed from the cementation of rounded rock fragments.
Conglomerate is typically the coarsest sedimentary rock, consisting of rounded gravel-sized clasts cemented together.
Yes, conglomerate is a sedimentary rock! It's a lithified mix of clasts, generally rounded to some degree, in a finer silt or sand matrix, all formed from deposits of the weathering products of earlier, often (but not exclusively) igneous, rock. If the clasts are coarse and angular the rock is a breccia.
They are referred to as clasts or bio-clasts.
They are referred to as clasts or bio-clasts.
Conglomerate is the rock type associated with a high-energy environment such as a very turbulent stream. Conglomerate is made up of rounded gravel-sized particles that are cemented together. These rounded particles are a result of the high energy in the stream carrying and abrading the rock fragments.
