What results when rock responds to stress by permanently deformed without breaking?

<span>Stress is the force applied to an object. In geology, stress is the force per unit area that is placed on a rock. There are four types of stresses that act on materials. A deeply buried rock is pushed down by the weight of all the material above it. Since the rock is trapped in a single spot, it is as if the rock is being pushed in from all sides. This pushing causes the rock to become compressed, but it cannot deform because there is no place for it to move. This is called confining stress. Compression is the stress that squeezes rocks together. Compression causes rocks to fold or fracture . When cars driving around a parking lot collide, compression causes the cars to crumple. Compression is the most common stress at convergent plate boundaries Rocks that are being pulled apart are under tension (also called extension). Tension causes rocks to lengthen or break apart. Tension is the major type of stress found at divergent plate boundaries. When forces act parallel to each other but in opposite directions, the stress is called shear. Shear stress causes two planes of material to slide past each other. This is the most common stress found at transform plate boundaries.</span>

Whitney’s neighbors are surprised that she never forgets their anniversary, but it falls on the same day as Whitney’s birthday,
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Semantic encoding.

Explanation:

When the meaning of a date, phrase, word, picture, etc, is encoded as opposed to the sound or imagery of it, we call that semantic encoding. In the exercise, the encoding would be the same date that shares the anniversary of Whitneys neighbours with her own birthday. They, ignoring the fact that its her birthday, believe that she never forgets. But she has, in fact, a semantic encoding with the dates.

How are the sixth, seventh, and eighth amendments similar?
ra1l [238]
What ever amendment does:

1) 6th amendment- This guarantees citizens the right to a public trial, the right to a lawyer, right to have a jury of their peers, and the right to know what charges are being put against you. All of these are imperative, as it gives each citizen equal treatment in the eyes of the law. 
2) 7th amendment- This guarantees a right to a civil trial in any case in which the object in question is valued at over $20. In this case, there would be a jury. This ensures that any damage to a person's property may be ruled on in court. 
3) 8th amendment- This protects citizens against excessive bail. This ensures that citizens are not held for an unfair amount of money. The crime dictates how much bail should be for the individual. 

Hope this helps! God bless
