Pressure was one of our topics of the day. We saw examples of pressure and were introduced to customary units (psi) and metric units (Pascals, kPa, and N/cm^2). Of course, pressure is important, because it is one of the factors that causes metamorphic rocks to form from igneous and sedimentary rocks, as well as other metamorphic rocks.
This leads into the Rock Cycle, as we wrap up our study of rocks for the time being next week. Assignment:
