<u>Answer:</u>

A sedimentary rock becomes magma my completely melting down under extremely high temperature.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • A sedimentary rock is the one which formed through the action of sedimentation of fossils, minerals, and earthly material by stacking up layer by layer for a long period of time.
  • This kind of rocks bear less strength and are easily subjected to degradation.
  • If a sedimentary rock comes in contact with active magma, it easily undergoes the process of melting and becomes a part of magma.

Sedimentary rock changes or melts into magma due to high temperature. Sedimentary rock is a type of rock that has been formed due to the deposition and solidification of sediment. It is commonly deposited in layers and often contains fossils.

How do normal faults differ from reverse faults?
LiRa [457]

The correct answer is - 5) At a normal fault, tensional stress causes the hanging wall block to move downward with respect to the foot wall block. Conversely, at a reverse fault, compressional stress causes the hanging wall block to move upward with respect to the foot wall block.

Both the normal faults and the reverse faults are dip-slip faults, meaning that they experience vertical movement which is inline with the dip of the fault. Both of them can be identified by the relative movement of their hanging walls and foot wall.

The normal faults have a hanging wall that is moving downwards relative to the foot wall. This kind of movement is caused by extensional tectonics, or rather by tensional stress. The faulted section of the rocks is lengthened because of this type of processes.

The reverse faults have a hanging wall that moves upward relative to the foot wall, thus the total opposite of the normal fault. This kind of movement is caused by the compressional tectonics. The faulted section of the rocks shortens under this type of processes.
