The major rocks of Earth's crust are classified into three principal types based on their origin and appearance. Rocks in pure terms of geology can be defined as naturally occurring and coherent aggregate of one or more minerals.
Rocks are commonly divided into three major classes according to the processes that resulted in their formation. These three classes are-
- Igneous Rocks: Igneous rocks are those which have been formed from molten lava
- Sedimentary Rocks: Sedimentary rocks consists of fragments derived from preexisting rocks or of materials precipitated from solutions.
- Metamorphic Rocks: Metamorphic rocks are those that have been derived from either igneous or sedimentary rocks under conditions that caused changes naturally and over time.

<span>The student's experiment is modeled after mass wasting, which is also known as mass movement or slope movement. One of the factors of mass wasting is gravity. The water from the hose weighs down the soil and causes the clumps of soil to move downward through the stack of rocks.</span>
A bomb cyclone is basically a storm that can rival the strength of a hurricane. They're called bomb cyclones or "weather bombs" because of the process that creates them (bombogenesis) basically bombogenesis is a storm that undergoes rapid strengthening.
The word bombogenesis comes from two words: bomb and cyclogenesis. All storms are cyclones and genesis means the creation or beginning and in this case bomb means explosive development so all together it means explosive storm strengthening
Bomb cyclones happen more in winter months and can carry hurricane force winds, cause coastal flooding and HEAVY snow. Bomb cyclones happen when a quickly forming storm results in a drop in atmospheric pressure of at least 24 millibars.
Basically its like a hurricane but stronger sometimes. The wind and flooding make it more like a hurricane but the blizzards and snow make it stronger
