Renewable resource:

Any resource, such as wood or solar energy, that can or will be replenished naturally in the course of time

Non renewable resource:

A resource of economic value that cannot be readily replaced by natural means on a level equal to its consumption. Most fossil fuels, such as oil, natural gas and coal are considered nonrenewable resources in that their use is not sustainable because their formation takes billions of years.

Pieces and full petrified logs in a barren area with mountains in the background.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The area was once a forest.

The area was uplifted.

The area was buried in sediment.

The area was probably covered by water.

Petrification of a dead plant or animal organisms occurs when rock mineral displaces the organic elements in the structure of the biotic matter or these minerals seep in between the spaces and pores within the dead plant or organism and become part of the material.

Explanation:

Petrification occurs under high pressure. This is why this process occurs in the crust after layers of sediments create enough pressure on the dead organic matter buried in with the sediments. This phenomenon commonly begins on the ocean floor where dead marine life sinks to the bottom and is buried by sediments over many years.  

Occasionally, tectonic plate forces uplift these petrified fossils from deep in the crust exposing them on the surface like in this case.

Galileo conducted controlled experiments to find out if the mass of the pendulum bob affected the period of the swing. Write a d
Papessa [141]
The pendulum was one of the greatest discoveries of Galileo, but remains that his claims are doubted by a few, if not many. There are some questions as to how Galileo proved his claims and theory about the pendulum and its properties which even drove some of the modern people to say that he was just acclaiming false assertions. Of course, Galileo had shared his ideas to his colleagues and might have been documented that he failed to demonstrate it mechanically. Though it is uncertain that he might have not attempted it, if he were to attempt such demonstration, then he might have gone to do the usual model for pendulums which is the tying of a heavy object to the other end and attaching the other end on a high place which would then suspend the heavy object mid-air. This is in connection that Galileo "tried it" with lead and cork.
