What is the regional metamorphism in the formation of metamorphic rock

1 answer:

3 0

Typically rocks formed by regional metamorphism have experienced deviatoric stress producing foliations. Rock types such as slate, phyllite, schist, gneiss and granulite are typical of regional metamorphism.
Low-grade metamorphism takes place at temperatures between about 200 to 320oC, and relatively low pressure. Low grade metamorphic rocks are generally characterized by an abundance of hydrous minerals. With increasing grade of metamorphism, the hydrous minerals begin to react with other minerals and/or break down to less hydrous minerals.

Define significant figure. Discuss the importance of using the proper number of significant figures in measurements and calculat

anastassius [24]

Explanation:

Significant figure is the measure of how accurately something can be measured. It carries meaning contributing to its measurement resolution. It is important to use proper number of significant figures to get a precise measurement. For example, if we use a meter stick then measurements like 0.874 meters, or 0.900 meters, are good because they indicate that we can measure to the nearest millimeter. Whereas a measurement like 0.8 does not tell that a meter stick can measure to the nearest millimeter.
