Please I want someone to answer all these questions
Stop 3 - Seibert Administration Building: We are here to observe the second major sedimena type on campus - sandstone. The name of this rock comes from the fact that it is co sand sized rock and mi strict about what we "sand" ajor sedimentary roclk mostly of neral grains. Most people know sand when they see it, but geologists are a bit lassity as "sand". Technically, particles are considered sand if their diameter falls in the range of 2-0.063 mm. Smaller than 0.063 mm we call the grains silt (0.063-0 and m). Larger grains also have specific names, including granules (2-4 mm), cobbles (4-256 mm) boulders (256 process called lithification mm). Anyway...in a sandstone, the sand size particles became stuck together in a hification occurs during compaction as the weight of overlying material . Lit mpresses the sediment and/or cementation when minerals precipitate from the surrounding fluids into the pore spaces between the grains. Q5: As I hope you will agree, the sandsto natural colors inciuding white, buf, bro, pink, purplk, et. Some of the blacks bave color bands displaying a wary or cirular pattern. The color of sedimentary rocks can be controiled by the mineralogy of the grains, or hy the composition of the material found between the grains (eg, cement, oil, etc). W'hich is the case for the sandstones that you see before you? 06: Boulders are defined as having a diameter of grater than 256 mm. What is this in inches Stop 4 - Kanley Chapel/Clocktower: This stop your final exam for the day. Let's see if you've been paying attention! The southeast side of the chapel boasts four different types of materials. T manmade, and two are natural. Let's see if you can identify them all marks 27: Brick is a common Spe of manmade building materia. V hat is the major constituent in brick? Where is this material Jound in nature? s: Aithongh the concrete that yon are now standing on ontside Kanley Chapel is a manmade produt, it bas much in common with sedimentary rocks. What is concrete, how is it made, and bow is it similar compositionaly to natural sedimentary rocks? Stop 5- Rood Hall Rock Garden: This is our last stop today. Look around the patio, and you will see a variety of different rock types. In particular, there are a few special sedimentary rocks found here that we haven't yet seen. The first is a conglomerate, which is a rock composed of large particle of other rocks. This example is particularly beautiful because the rounded rock fragments within the conglomerate are red in color- how cool! The second specimen worth pointing out is called a banded iron formation. This rock sample is approximately 2 billion years old, and it came from Michigan's Upper Peninsula.Explanation / Answer
Stop 3, Q5: Need the image of the sandstone.
Stop3, Q6: 256 mm= 10.078 inches. Hence to be qualified as a Boulder, the diameter of the grain has to be 10.078 inches or more.
