The main difference is the source of the sediment that the rock is formed from. Clastic sedimentary rocks are formed mostly from silicate sediment derived by the breakdown of pre-existing rocks. Bioclastic rocks are formed by the accumulation of fragmented organic remains (such as shell-sand) - i.e. the sediment is of biological rather than non-biological origin.
When placing the piece of aluminium in water, the level of water will rise by an amount equal to the volume of the piece of aluminum.
Therefore, we need to find the volume of that piece.
Density can be calculated using the following rule:
Density = mass / volume
Therefore:
volume = mass / density
we are given that:
the density = 2.7 g / cm^3
the mass = 16 grams
Substitute in the equation to get the volume of the piece of aluminum as follows:
volume = 16 / 2.7 = 5.9259 cm^3
Since the water level will rise to an amount equal to the volume of aluminum, therefore, the water level will rise by 5.9259 cm^3
speed, volume, mass, temperature and power
